      pac looked extremely fresh on the 2nd fight and full of energy, but cmon were talkin about morales here you cant never count him out. honestly i wouldnt be suprise if morales wins a 3rd fight. morales has too much pride on himself and his fans "remember when morales changed stance (southpaw) and went toe to toe with pac" that was incredible and he did it for his fans.

        My thoughts on this are. Does Morales want the rematch or Arum? I've heard lately that Arum is thinking about this and that, basically seeing $$$ for this 3rd fight. I'm sure he's pushing Morales into it more than Morales would want it. Of course if that's not true and Morales does want this bad, he could easily beat Manny. Manny seems like the type that after a big win, he's over confident and especially if he believes he has Morales's number. He did really well destroying Morales and basically left no doubts that he beats Morales in every fight, though Morales now has the opportunity to change and will have the hunger. This alone can defeat all odds. Morales you can never count out and he can make a winning comeback without a doubt. Of course if Manny wants to seal the deal, he's gotta look just as good in the 3rd fight.

          Oh and one more thing. If it's Arum who is pushing the fight, then he seriously doesn't care about his fighters which is sad. Any normal person would say Morales shouldn't go into the 3rd fight because he got beat badly and convincingly. Though if Arum doesn't see this and only sees the $$$, I don't think he cares if Morales is seriously hurt in another rematch.

            Definitely should not count Morales out. I for one would like to see this happen at 133lbs. I think the results would be the same up to 135 with Morales and Pac. I think Morales would come in with a little more resistance than he did but still fall. Then again, he was getting hit with shots that would have sent him down in rd 2 and 6. He was stayin up were most would have gone down. He can't afford to get hit consecutively by face re-arranging shots. The one thing that is pretty scary though is Pac mans ability to get better and stronger with every fight. I don't think he was at his full potential still. Pac has said he still get stronger and better.

              Of course Pacquiao can and it aint bull****, you just want Manny to have his weight drain advantage. If the camp would accept it then Manny would only have to come in at 130 or 131. The catch weight would be only to help Morales out alittle so he wont have to drain himself to much. Remember, they want a catch weight at 133, not 135. I really belive Manny's camp want the fight at 130 because they know how much Morales suffers to make 130 while Pacquiao can pretty much eat what he wants and not have to kill himself to make weight.

                morales can't say no to arum, he owed the man a lot!! and whether he likes a 3rd match or not, he would still do it!!

                  That was one of the biggest mistake in El Terible's career. Because of that 12th round, he was exposed to be very susceptible to the right hook and gave Pacquiao a new confidence that he could hurt Morales. The rematch showed it all.

                      read this: http://www.philstar.com/philstar/NEWS200602031605.htm
                      you can't blame pac's people. Pac is a 130 pounder at most and he shouldn't have to go out of his way to let Morales have what he wants. The 1st and 2nd fight were at 130 why cant the third?
