    Right after his win over Pacquiao he lost to:

    Raheem
    Pacquiao
    Pacquiao
    Diaz

    Yeah, if he was actually prime then he ******. A prime Morales would not have lost to Pacquiao, Raheem and Diaz, he'd win and not even make it close.

      You need to take into account that he fought Raheem and Diaz and 135. That's above his prime weight.

      Pacquiao prime vs Morales prime would always be exciting to watch just like Morales prime vs Barrera prime. That's all that I can say and wish for!

          Just checking in ...............Like I said when i showed you guys the proof of Corrales having problems for the Floyd fight, nobody would come back and admit I was right.
          don't bother man.. no use in debating with posters that already have their minds made up. you shut this thread down in your first couple posts here, they just don't want to see it. they also love answering questions with a question/switching topics mid-discussion. LOL!

              pacman got KO'd TWICE before fighting morales..is he shot? wtf is a *******? Yea morales went through wars, yet you forget manny was also a head hunting brawler for most his career. Morales was not prime, which I had already stated, so what's your point? Manny wasn't prime either.. so have one of these

                dude, he fought raheem at 135 becuz he couldnt make 130...he chose to move up because it became too hard for him to make 130. pac made him fight at 130 in their fights. do the math.

                    His best weight was 135? No, he couldn't do or be as effective at that weight compared to the lower weights.

                    As I stated in previous posts, I wouldn't mind if the fight happened at 132 either. I WAS ROOTING FOR MORALES IN THAT FIGHT!!!

                    At 130, they had at least 2 really good fights. Morrales won one and was winning by 3 rounds and had control in the 2nd fight. HBO crew was ready to count Pacquiao out and stated Moralles is too big and that Manny's better at 126. Only when Pacquiao had that big round did things change.

                    You guys can't give credit and I explained to you all, that Corrales also had weight issues, had the flu and prison was waiting for him after the Floyd fight.

                    As I stated before, you can't change your logic just because we went from Manny to Floyd. That would be insane. Right?

                      I know what you mean. You can have the evidence, the weapon, pictures, video and witnesses of the "crime" and they still would give excuses. How they can't admit to it is crazy!
