    Pacquiao: "Oh? [Morales] is back?" "I weigh 143-144 right now"

    Three-division world champion and Mexican legend Erik Morales was the last man to ever defeat Filipino icon Manny Pacquiao. Of course, that was back

    Interview is at 1:36:00 - 1:42:30. Just click the On the Ropes Radio audio link in that article^^^.

    Some quotes:

    Do you think welterweight is your natural division?
    Manny: "Actually my natural division is 140 because I'm weighing right now 143-144 without reducing... without limit in eating. But I can fight at 147"

    I was also wondering what you think of Morales coming back?
    Manny: "Oh, he's come back? He come back to fight?"
    Yes this will be his fourth comeback fight this weekend.
    Manny: "Oh good luck to him. I hope he can win."

    How long do you think you can continue to fight?
    Manny: "A couple more years and then focus on serving people."

    "I would like to dedicate this fight to all the Filipino people and also to all the people [who were] victims of the tsunami in Japan."

      Well he does have to keep bulking himself up in the process just so he doesn't lose too much weight. Hopefully he maintains this weight and doesn't come in too light.

            If Pac-Man walks at 143, ideally you would want to have him at 135. Welter Weight is where teh money is at though.

              I don't think Manny is against 140. Hell, even Ariza said they can make 140. Roach, on the other hand knows Marquez cannot even perform well at 142 lbs.

              Fight will not happen anyway. JMM is going to stay with Golden Boy.

                i imagine part of it is pac is a champion at 147 not 140. if he fights marquez at 140 it woups be a non title fight
