EM won the fight fair and square. To that 1 point, even though EM won by 2 points, if Manny won at least 1 more round , it would have been 114-114. So u can say 1 point.Comment

This is why I choose Manny Pacquiao:
He is a national living legend, and as an icon he rivals, and quite possibly surpasses what Julio Caesar Chavez was to Mexico, what Felix Trinidad was to Puerto Rico, what Roberto Duran was to Panama, what Carlos Monzon was to Argentina. He beat out the Filipino President for "Filipino of the Year!"
That's saying something.
He has a reckless style, and at times can't/won't keep his hands up, so nobody is perfect. Pacquiao, once in a blue moon might lose, considering that he always seeks to fight the best, but he'll never get dominated (the late 90's knockout loss is distant, almost adolescent past). Even those who have the skill to expose his Achilles Heel do so at a painful price. Chavez could be outboxed, as could Trinidad. Monzon's wild living took a toll on him. Duran moved up too many weight classes. Even the Greatest, Ali, didn't have the one punch to end a fight right away if he was behind on the scorecards.
Did any of these guys consistently dominate and knock out prime, future Hall of Famers the way Pacquiao does? He was the underdog vs. Barrera. Many said Morales had his number before their rematch. 3 knockdowns vs. Juan Manuel Marquez. 7 in total versus the feared Mexican trio. How many can boast that feat?
He fights anybody, anytime anywhere, unlike another current supposed P4P king we all might know who in my humble opinion, is wasting away his incredible prime years with his incessant indiscisiveness....and Pacquiao, between the Barrera's, Morales' he's still fighting very very good fighters, like the Agapito Sanchez's, the Oscar Larios' of the world, while Barrera and Morales go life and death with merely very-good-but-not-great level fighters like Rocky Juarez, Jesus Chavez and Carlos Hernandez.
Pacquiao is a legend in the purest sense. These are his prime years also, so enjoy them while they last.
Morales and Barrera are great in their own right, first ballot hall-of-famers without a doubt, but Pacquiao is a once-in-a-decade type of fighter in my opinion.Comment

He already always had that self respect. Did you even watch the post fight interview.
Pac said he wanted a rematch right away as he thought he won the fight. And JMM answer was "HE DID NOT THINK A REMATCH WAS NECESSARY AS HE THOUGHT HE WON THE FIGHT". Very different anwer. HMMMM.Comment
