    Well personally I think Manny could have done a little better than Morales, heres the reason: Manny is a punchthrowing machine. Unlike Morales he would throw a lot more punches. And also unlike Morales he looked like he was in good shape.

    I think Barrera also would fair better because hes more of an inside fighter. He has shorter arms and whenever Raheem got inside to throw his quick punches Barrera could land...

    I just think this was a stylistic disaster for Morales...
    good points but I think Pac would get or be very close to getting koed with his reckless style.His agression would be stop by one clean hard punch by the bigger Raheem. Barrera would also have a hard time even countering the slick raheem cause his speed and power advantage.
    Plain and simple Raheem is to big for any of these guys.He would most certainly make for a good fight with guys his size.First time Ive ever seen him fight and he impressed me but I still dont see him beating a Corrales or a Castillo.

      Manny is a power punching south paw.

      Juarez dropped Raheem, and Manny hits a lot harder than Rocky.

      Raheem is slick, and he very well may beat Manny, but anyone who says "He just beat Morales so that means he'd beat Manny" is ignorant.

      Manny is a completely different fight, and I could see him pressuring Raheem a lot more.

        I think having seen what happened to Morales would benifit Barrera.

        I don't think it's a certianty by any means that Raheem would beat Barrera or Pacquiao.

        Raheem looked great last night, but he's got more to prove before anyone can start claiming with any certianty that he's going to automaticlly beat other world class fighters.

            There's nothing wrong with pointing out that Juarez dropped him and that Manny is a much better and quicker puncher than Rocky.

            That wasn't meant to assert that Manny would beat him, only to counter those saying a Raheem win over Pacquiao is elementary because he beat Morales.
