NYAHAHAHA! They think they can pull another trick in the bagPacquiao said "I am not crazy. Even in the last fight I weighed only 128.5 pounds so why should I give him such a big advantage? No way will I move up."
The Filipino national treasure said the insistence of Arum and Morales on a catch-weight of 132 pounds may be their way out of facing another beating at the hands of the southpaw who has added a vicious right to go along with his devastating left straight. Pacquiao said "maybe they don’t want to fight me anymore so they put an obstacle knowing I will refuse."
Pacquiao said he beat Morales badly and knocked him out. in the process stunning his manager Fernando Beltran who boasted that his fighter wouldn’t be knocked down. Pacquiao admitted that at 132 pounds Morales will have an advantage which he is not willing to concede. Pacquiao noted that their first two fights were at 130 pounds and it was only logical for their so-called trilogy to be at the same weight.

Manny does have a point. But then again, Erik said he was too heavy at 135 when he fought Raheem...and then he was too drained at 130. If 132 is his right weight, then he needs to retire unless he can get another top fighter to fight at that weight.Comment
