    All I know that we've waited too long for this fight to happen. And it's all happening now. I hope they'll make the crowd go roar! I'll be cheering for Manny Pacquiao all the way.

      I am watching the Morales-Pacquiao I fight, and i noticed and even Lederman pointed it out how Morales kept Manny at the end of the jab with the upper jab through the middle. He constantly dug downstairs with the straight right which opened the target upstairs. Morales simply didn't moved his head enough which was why he got caught flush a few times in the fight and got a bit reckless at times, but the upper jab, straight right hand upstairs and downstairs was very effective. I also noticed that left hook and right uppercut combo worked well against Manny too. Floyd likes to use that combo. Left hook and right uppercut.

      Anything can happen and one punch can change a fight, but this is Floyd's fight to lose if he want it to happen. If he fights smart and work behind the stiff upper jab, constantly turns Manny to offset his offense like the game plan Mosley had(Shane's trainer had a good game plan, Shane just couldn't pulled the trigger) , and counter Manny on the way in, then i am very confident he could pitch a shutout.

        You should approach Floyd and tell him this so he will win. And tell him you are smarter than him so he should listen.

          It's sad how people quickly forget that fight and now we're stuck hearing "Ïf you come forward against Pacquiao, you get beat down", one of the shittiest myths really. Also, it's important to note that Morales had the best lead right hand that Pacquiao ever seen.

            So....Bob Arum..

            Was never the problem to begin with. Last I checked, Manny is still with TR and Bob.

              So do you consider Floyds lead right better in 2015 compared to Morales back in 2005?

                    That's not even debatable, even at this point Mayweather's is considerably better.
