    Terrible is a smarter fighter than Pac
    Pac just had to box more when he moved up in weight
    he still relied more on speed than smarts
    neither guy has ever been a pure technician who relied on ring IQ
    Terrible had a little more versatility to his style though

        Morales

        although I'd say he's up there on the list of guys who made dumb choices in combat

                It should be Pacquaio. Why? Remember the first fight Pacquaio nonexistent right hand? In the second and third fight, Pacquaio made sure his right hand was like a magnet to Morales face.

                Pacquaio ring IQ was underrated and he showed that against Oscar when he boxed and counterpunched him beautifully.

                  OK I love Pacquiao but please show me a fight where he shows that without speed and explosiveness he could be successful? Please tell me a fight where the Pacquiao in the early round is a completely different fighter than the fighter in the later round. I love Pacman but he epitomizes relying on his God given abilities.

                    right because we all know Oscar was in his prime and not a dead corpse and the same goes for Morales

                      well i personally felt that Erik was doing more then just holding his own infact i felt he was winning up until the sixth, his legs were basically noodles but i didnt feel it was SO MUCH manny's adjustments as apposed Morales being completly physically out of it, i remember watching the weigh in for that, and Erik looked liked a bag of bones even moreso than he usually does,

                      manny i felt was losing the fight and the tide did turn THAT much from rounds 6-10 again moreso for Erik having little to no gas tank,

                      the 3rd encounter was completely unneccessary i felt for Eriks career/Weight at the time
