Was it wrong that Raheem didn't get the Pacquiao Shot over Morales?

Boxers have always handpicked their opponents based on how much money they would make. Why are people acting like only certain fighters do it?

That's fine, i'm only asking about this instance though.

An 'off night' against Raheem? Did he also have an off night against Barrera before the first Pac fight when he lost that one too? A champion doesn't have an off night by losing every single round and losing worse than ever before in his career. An off night would have been winning a closer, hard fought decision against a guy he was meant to beat easily.

Morales didn't have an off night. He was flat out dominated, embarrassed and humiliated and had also lost another fight only two fights before. He would then go on to lose his next three fights in a row.

So, he had an off night against Barrera, then a great night against Pac in a win, then an off night against Raheem, another off night against Pac, another off night against Pac, then another off night against Diaz before retiring.

Wow, that's a pretty heavy load of 'off nights'.

Does this look like an off night or just having the ****e beaten out of him?

Funny how Floyd fans need to go back ~6 years to try to say that Manny picked the "wrong" guy with the avoidance of timelines

YET

Floyd's next fight is against a Cotto who lost in a bad way against Manny.



They should be asking that about their hero Floyd ..... why is he fighting the loser (COTTO) not the winner (MANNY)?

You're obssessed with Floyd, this isn't about him it's about Pac vs Raheem or Morales

A Floyd fan starting a thread about Manny AGAIN and you call me obsessed?

and to say that Manny should have fought Raheem when Manny had just come up to 130 and lost his fight to Morales. You guys are off into the deep end yet you calling me obsessed?

I'm a fan of both fighters, has nothing to do with fandom.

and you have the courage to talk about being obsessed? lol!

Marquez did beat Manny in their last fight. I scored the first two for Pacquiao, if that helps ease your Pacquiao love paranoia

So I had Floyd beating Marquez, Ortiz and Mosley! Feel better now? lol!

You are the one who appears to be sensitive ..... as soon as I said something against your hero Floyd you went into this "your obsessed" mode. Instead of just calmly countering with a good old fashion boxing discussion.

I know what you were trying to do so don't give me that "I like Manny too".

If you look at my other post a few pages back, it states why it didn't make any sense to fight Raheem ..... but Floyd did one worse. He avoided Manny and moved up a division to fight the loser. Everyone expected a Morales vs Manny fight and they got it. Everyone hoped for a Manny vs Floyd fight but Floyd went for the loser.
