    Pacquiao vs Morales Trilogy: Where Does it Stack Up?

    I know it aint done, but so far, do you think this trilogy of Pac vs Morales is good in comparison to the ones like Barrera vs Morales Trilogy or Gatti vs Ward Trilogy? Or is Manny Pacquiao JUST TOO GOOD fo Morales to make this a war?

    i think the trilogy, if it happens, will be one of the greatest trilogies but i still think manny pac will KO eric on III before 6 rounds

            I think if the 3rd fight is as competetive as the first two....well up until the 7th in the second it will be a great trilogy both are great fighters and it seems Pac is going to achieve more from this day forward but Morales has already been proven one of the greatest ever so should be a highly ranked trilogy.

                In my humble opinion, Pac/Morales I and II is better than Barrera/Morales I and II and Gatti/Ward I and II.

                I know Gatti/Ward I and Barrera/Morales I were insane, epic, legendary brawls; I'm not saying Pac/Morales I can be compared to those awesome slugfests, but, in my opinion, the second fight of both those trilogies was subpar compared to Pac/Morales II, and Pac/Morales I was no slouch.

                I already think that Pac/Morales I and II has surpassed Castillo/Corrales I and II. Once again, I'm not saying that Pac/Morales I is worthy to be compared to Castillo/Corrales I (the fight of the century so far); I just think Pac/Morales II was a better fight than Castillo/Corrales II, and since Pac/Morales I was a great fight in its own right, as a group of fights I'd give Pac/Morales the edge, but we haven't yet seen the third fight of either trilogy, so it's possible that Castillo/Corrales may end up being greater in the long run.

                  It's always a good fight whoever Pac is pouding on in my opinion, I just like watching his skills become better and better as the years go by.

                    Hmmm, I don't think this trilogy is as good as Ward/Gatti or Barrera-Morales. Those 2 fights saw 2 guys give everything they had in them. You know they left a part of themselves in the ring after the final bell had rung. They were just brutal. Manny-Morales has been more technical no matter how much they try making it look like a slugest in the first fight from the commercials and promos. Infact if Manny didn't get cut, it wouldn't have looked or been as good I think. Morales was always in control in the first fight. The 2nd is where things got interesting though even still, it seemed like once Manny got in control which he was slowly working on, he never got out of the driving seat. They were good fights, though not on the level of Gatti-Ward or Barrera-Morales. More specially the first of both of those trilogies.
