Originally posted by THE TRUTHI agree, but I think a rematch will happen. And after seeing the first fight I would watch it.
Ohh I would as well but the thing is Manny doesnt belong at 130 but Morales was a powerhouse at 126, so I dont think Pacquaio will ever convincingly beat Morales on any given day or any weight class....Morales is a cut above Pacquaio.Comment

Morales is a great boxer/fighter and Manny is a great brawler/fighter. The sweet science prevails 9 times out of 10.Originally posted by spinksjinxOhh I would as well but the thing is Manny doesnt belong at 130 but Morales was a powerhouse at 126, so I dont think Pacquaio will ever convincingly beat Morales on any given day or any weight class....Morales is a cut above Pacquaio.Comment

I have to disagree and agree. the fight with morales wasnt a schooling like tito vs winky but it was a UD! pacman only lost by 3 points. He won some rounds but he still has a chance to redeem himself and that is if he pressures like the pacman of old! which we havent seen in like 3 years.I agree with you guys on the 130 pounds but with the way pacman delivers a punch that 130 pounds helps he throws his whole body into his left hand.
I believe pacman doesnt have the best defensive skills when you run fast away from punches it gives the other fighter that round on ring generalship, winky is the best on ring generalship he stays in the middle and never runs back showing he aint scared.
My gut is going with manny on the Rematch.
Tonight be prepared to see the manny of old.
Manny win by tko or ko before 10
Raheem to pull the upset with a UD but dont be surprised if he gets robbed ala felix sturm oscar de la hoya.Comment

Of course we will see the Manny of Old, he hasnt changed and his opponent is of a lesser caliber and Valesquez is just a fall guy in order to make him look impressive. Morales got Raheem so he can struggle and look like Manny has a better chance....
Pacquaio was schooled by Marquez and Morales who are 2 tremendously talented boxers...I dont see it and the only fight I want to see Pacquaio in is against Injin Chi....That is a fight that catches my eye greatly.Comment

Pac will KO/TKO Velasquez, seeing that Erik will not be outdone and try to blowout Raheem ....
as a true PAC FAN i honestly believe that PACMAN can improve on his last performance against EM and make a statement on the re-match ...
Guys anybody here gonna be there to watch the fight live ?? If anyone is, I suggest don't miss out on the undercard featuring Filipino Rey "Boom Boom" Bautista, this kid has a lot of promise ...Comment

as a pacfan its not far for me to think that the rematch with erik will be the 1/10 that he can BEAT Morales ...Originally posted by THE TRUTHMorales is a great boxer/fighter and Manny is a great brawler/fighter. The sweet science prevails 9 times out of 10.Comment

I have to agree with you and also disagree with you Morales and Marquez did show pac who was the better boxer period, but you are saying "Morales got Raheem so he can struggle and look like Manny has a better chance...." I have never seen Morales just not fight and allow him self to be hit just for money, like it was said in a previous post Morales is the peoples champ so you know he is going to put up a great show, not only that but this is his first fight at 135 he needs to test his speed, and power to see if he really belongs in the 135 (imo he does).Originally posted by spinksjinxOf course we will see the Manny of Old, he hasnt changed and his opponent is of a lesser caliber and Valesquez is just a fall guy in order to make him look impressive.

What I was referring to that statement was that Pacman received the less caliber opponent so he can blow him out and that will build up the hype and make him look great going into the rematch. Morales got the tougher fighter of the two and Morales wont win in impressive fashion instead most likely a UD. Which with Pacquaio knocking out his opponent people will fall into the hype of a knockout, it always happens in boxing. People know Morales is the far superior boxer over Manny so whats the point in giving Manny a fight where he would end up going to the scorecard on. Tonights boxing card is just a normal piece of promotional work for their lucrative rematch.Comment

Thanks for clearing it up for me I really thought that you where saying that Morales was trying to sell him self. Sorry about that I had you all wrong.Originally posted by spinksjinxWhat I was referring to that statement was that Pacman received the less caliber opponent so he can blow him out and that will build up the hype and make him look great going into the rematch.
