    Well, if Morales has a good rest, he can beat Pacman again, as he did the first time.

      Its pretty obvious he is. His prime came at 122 when you can make a case for him being the greatest ever at that weight.

      but I mean come on back to back embarresing losses. Morales was shut out and dominated by Zahire Raheem just months agao fro christ sakes.

          That's my point too. He lost to Barrera. He struggled to beat Pacman who had been thoroughly outboxed by JMM. He lost to Raheem. He lost to Pacman.

                exactly. when Morales won a close fight gainst Pac 115-113, they said Morales is at his best ever been, ready to compete wit Diego Corrales etc....

                  still a great win for pacman.
                  I agree, Ive seen more than just the Morales/Raheem, Morales/MAB, and Morales/Pac fights, unlike some of the others. I agree that EM does not have the fire that he once posssesed.
