Erik Morales Vs Manny Pacquiao - Excuses Exposed

I can answer this one very easily......
This does NOT expose Manny. It only exposes Manny's haters!!!
Before Manny fought the first time, Morales fought Barrera 4 months earlier and lost. Please show me all the Barrera exposed videos?
When Manny vs Morales I happened, nobody was saying anything because Morales won but because Morales lost the second at the SAME weight as the first fight, we get these exposed video. Well, in their second fight, Morales was doing fine and was leading by 3 rounds at one point. At that point all of the HBO commentators had written Manny off and said, ....listen to this,,,, "Morales is too big for Manny" .... "Manny belongs at 126" ..... "Manny fights better at the lower weights" .... "Morales is in control of the fight"
Only after Manny comes back and has a very strong round does things change. It took several clean shots to the head of Morales to change things around. Not just Morales but any fighter would have felt those blows to the head ....
As for those pictures you put, we can do that with many fighters.... For those who say, how could Morales get down to 130, Morales won titles at lower weight divisions too. Morales was a tall guy for those divisions so he never looked bulky at a weighin.
Also, why are you showing the Morales vs Diaz picture. Morales lost in that one!!! lol!!!!
Now, I wouldn't have minded seeing Morales fight Pacquiao at 132 but when you come to think about it they were fighting at 130 for super featherweight title. If you want to come in at higher weights then you need to either fight for the lightweight title or no title!!! .... but as I said, they were fighting for the 130 belts. Right?
As for Zahir Raheem. Morales fought him in 2005. Manny moved up to 135 in 2008 .... So Manny fighting Raheem just didn't make sense especially when Raheem lost his next fight!!!
In summary, this exposing of Manny is a joke. You can take anything and everything out of context and you can make it too look exactly like you want it. Plus, if Morales was the only elite fighter that Manny faced then one may bear some credence to those videos/comments..... but Manny had fought and beaten a prime Barrera that had no excuses and nothing to state that Manny is an exposed boxer......Last edited by ADP02; 06-22-2010, 02:30 AM.
