The first time I noticed Morales was slipping was when he fought Jesus Chavez. A dominating performance but the hands were no longer as fast and definitely the legs, even though he was in against an injured opponent. I've always been a huge fan of Morales, from his title-winning effort against Zaragoza (with Floyd Mayweather on the undercard!) to that sad performance against Diaz. And I saw noticeable slippage against Chavez.
Why Cant Pac Cult Members Give Eric Morrales Credit For Beating Their God?

I don't know really know WTF the argument is about. I thought a lot of "Pac cult members" gave Morales credit for beating "our God"
But, I also think Pac did improve after that fight. Is not taking credit away from Morales though.
And, I don't think Morales was shot the first time they fought. I do think he was at the down slide of his career. And, had ONE last great fight in him. Like a lot of great fighters have.Comment

You know, someone could say the same thing about Roy Jones from Ruiz to Tarver. That's what making and losing weight can do.Comment

Just a question for the Pacquiao cult members
Why did he rematch Morales instead of fighting the man who had dominated Morales (Raheem) and why did he feel the need to make Morales come down in weight instead of fighting him at 135?Comment

When he lost to Raheem, what was the first thing you thought (if you can remember)?Comment

The majority of Pac fans who bring this up. Is that they're saying Pac in his mind thinks he lost to EM due to giving blood so soon to the fight. And, that is why wanting a cutoff date for OST.
Now before my boy(Dazed) comes at me and get at this subject. I am not saying Pac is right. I am just saying what he said and what his fans are perceiving.Last edited by jrosales13; 05-17-2010, 10:52 AM.Comment

Coz for me, no matter what the excuses are, even if it came indeed from Pac himself, EM beat him convincingly at that. Wether he's blood drained, sockless groovy, etc. Morales was the better guy, and props to him!Comment

I remember midway through the fighting thinking, "what....the...****..."Comment
