If the fight somehow managed to be made, if I was Floyd, I'd wear the mexican flag trunks and sombrero he wore against Oscar.

Well he proved himself well against maidana not sayin maidana can beat pacquiao but with that bein saidyea morales can still give pac problems of course his fans will disagree but he still has a lot left in him if he can hang well wit maidana who in many eyes beat pac's stablemate.

big fan of morales and manny both. but i gotta say no chance in hell. the last 2 times you fought it was pure domination. morales looked pretty mediocre in his most recent fight and he makes his opponents wear winnings. which in my opinion was the reason he won the 1st fight against manny... he gets badly ko'd against pac... and for all you people that think manny was exposed by marquez, he was and he wasn't. yes marquez can give manny a very tough fight and even beat him, but juan manuel is one of a kind, he has a very unique style that no one else has, he is a warrior that can take punishment, and while doing so, still use his intelligence to figure out his opponent, and pick him apart. he can stay composed and patient when a fighter comes at him with everything. he actually has some similarities to floyd in that sense, though jmm likes to mix it up with the other guy to figure him out, where as floyd likes to stay on the defensive and typically only counter punch.
in short, morales today is not even close to as good as marquez today... on top of that, manny would be wearing 8 oz reyes not pillows. not saying this because i think manny is an all time great, but just to point it out, almost all the great fighters of the past have had opponents that just had the right style to beat them or give them a lot of trouble.

This article's even funnier than the Huck picture.

Legend in your day but fuck off Eric.

hang it up Erik, you're not in the elite group of fighters anymore. If you can't beat no skills/Iron chin Maidana, you won't come close to beating Pac
