He really must have gotten hit harder than we thought. Ok, so he can't fight for **** at 135lbs, and not at 130lbs. WHERE THE HELL CAN HE FIGHT?! Oh in between right? 133lbs. Give me a frikin break. I really hate when people make excuses and can't accept a loss that was seen by everyone.

This is a Filipino newspaper. Have you considered using a more independent source?

LOL, of course it's bias, especially that author Recah Trinidad who is only in Pac's bandwagon if he wins. He's also the douchebag who spread the false news that Pac injured his forearm, days before the rematch.

Morales definitely underestimated Pac's power. He disrespected him by fighting southpaw in their first fight and a few weeks after, Morales had an interview with Ring Magazine and said Pac's power is vastly overrated.

He ate his words in the rematch and got KTFO, a perfect example of bad karma

Pac obviously hits hard, but I also think that none of MAB's and Morales's opponents were homerun hitters. MAB and Morales themselves are not really k.o. artists either, more like 3rd base type hitters.

manny had his gloves and they kept landing and landing and landing on eriks head.

what more can you say?

It was very clear by what he said after the first fight that he was too confident, and it cost him dearly. He got the wrong impression because of the gloves, which I have myslef compared with Reyes, and there is no comparision. He got hit alot, had no idea how hard he hit for real, and got laid out.

One of the supervisors in my work, don't know if his mexican, but his latino, he said that he watched an interview of Erik Morales. EM said that he never been punched so many times in the head and body, in the 2nd match with Manny Pacquiao. Can any mexican or latino members confirm this?

Like the commentators at HBO boxing said, EM has a granite chin, but if u can punch him so many times in the head, u can hurt him and possibly knock him out.

Did gloves made a diffirence? Look at the first fight where Pacman hit EM with a left but did not get knockdown(somewhere around 10 to 12 rounds), but in the 2nd fight, in the 2nd round, MP got EM with a left. If EM did not hold the ropes, that would have been a knockdown. And look at his reaction after he recovered, he had to compose himself, which probably hurt him.

Did Manny hit Morales harder than we thought?
