Just thought I'd share this with those of you who haven't had a chance to re-watch the fight. I've watched it a few more times, and it doesn't get any less remarkable.
This round is really the turning poing. With Morales winning 3-6 with his jab it was this round where Manny really turned it up.
What's the most astounding about this round is if you watch to see how Manny suddenly has Morales missing most of his jabs. His rythem and footwork almost completely nullify Morales' jab, and he's able to set up a lot of fire by effectivly mixing in his right hand (jabbing and hooking) to land his left.
This is everything that troubled him the most in their 1st fight, and really shows the dramatic improvment he's made as a fighter.
Being difficult to hit and using the right hand to keep his man guessing really makes Manny a frightening fighter on a different level.
Enjoy.
