Pacquiao vs. Morales 3 is Officially Signed

[czars_salad]

both gloves on the canvass.

now if this is telling he is not hurt, then i dont know what hurt means.

did he just swallow his mouthpiece?

[psychopath]

have you seen the first fight? Erik DID BEAT HIM CONVINGLY in there first fight. No reason Morales cant do it again. You see, Morales can box and punch and if he sticks to his gameplan he can easily nullify the left hand power. Marquez had an answer for it and he fought back valiantly in there fight. Morales answer to the left hand is his boxing smarts and his own punching power.

The question is did you analyze what you saw in the first fight dude.

The two fighters were dead even with two rounds each until the fatal headbut happened in the fifth round. A headbut that affected Pacquaio's vision and made him lose a lot of blood. That's the reason why Erick looked good, but yet Erik failed to dominate the guy.

The second fight saw Pacquiao do his thing without a hitch.

And on the third fight? I can't see Erik being succesful in out boxing Pac. Pacquiao has perfected his lateral movements and is now cutting the ring very well, couple that with his vastly improved right hand and all indications points to Eric being punished again.

The only way Eric can win is for him to knock out Pac which I don't see happening. When was the last time Erik K.O.ed an opponent?

I have a feeling Morales will beat Manny this time around. Erik beat him before I dont see any reason why he cant beat him again. Manny is a one dimensional slugger that can be neutralized by boxing which Morales is very good at when he wants to be. Look for Morales to change game plans and become a boxer-puncher in this trilogy. Pacman will lose.

I am not counting out Morales but even though Pacquiao is one dimensional he has improved a little in his other weaknesses. Even though its just Larios(top 3 in his weight division), Pacman did some defense and counter punching.

1st fight: Manny had a cut on his eye which cause him to see and did not use his favorite Reyes gloves(it made a diffirence). Manny was hurting Morales with body shots.

2nd fight: EM came out good, but those body shots and to the head fatigued Morales. Pacquiao landed more power punches than EM.

I believed EM will come out more agressive for the trilogy, but this will expose his head and body that Manny will take an advantage too. Also EM might have a granite chin, but he has a weaker body. Whem EM states that Manny's punches does not hurt him, he is saying by punches to the head, now ask EM if Manny hurt him in his body. EM will probably denied it, but just look at both fights, u can see Morales hurting and backing up.

Some predicts the trilogy will last in 6-7 rounds or less, but this fight will either end in unanimous decision for Pacquiao(EM winning the first 3of the first 5, then Pacman will win the rest) or another TKO(or even an actual KO) in the last 3 rounds.

If u seen the first fight, then u should now Manny had a cut, hampering/limiting his vision and diffirent gloves. Yea i know the gloves again, i am not saying Manny can KO EM with 1 punch with the Reyes gloves, but just look at the 2nd round of the 2nd fight, if EM did not hold the ropes, a knockdown.

EM might have won by unanimous decision, but look at the score, all 115-113. That's a one round diffirence.

did he just swallow his mouthpiece?

hahaha! it was stucked up.

[MrSmith]

He swallowed it...(lol)

That pic is almost ****ographic. There's a party in Erika's mouth and everyone's cu**ing(lol)

where the **** was that big right hand in the first two fights? no one forgot about the first fight but the second fight you seem to be forgetting, manny is the first and i mean FIRST boxer to kd morales (not that **** with barera) a=into a TKO, and if you're saying erik was tired, then take another l;ook at the face of morales after the fight LOL! you just one of the haters!LOL!

and its a big surprise this thread is still alive LOL!

He was landing the big right hand in the first fight and Manny was taking it well. He got rocked a few times but was never buzzed. I dont remember the first fight being close, it was clearly a one sided beating by the hands of Morales. Yes, Manny is the first person to stop Morales thats only because Morales is in the tale end of his career and all the wars have already caught up to him. Remember the last round in there first fight...Morales let Manny hit him at will to show he could not hurt him. Morales never went down. You must remember that dont you ?

headbutt or not. Blood trickling in eyes or not...this is boxing. Doesnt matter, you fight regardless. I saw Morales dominate Manny in that first fight. The second fight was pretty even until the bodyshots made Morales tired and gassed. He was never really hurt. It wasnt a knockout from being hurt...if you see again it was because he was tired. Doesnt matter though, Morales will box and move in the trilogy.

How the f**k can you say, "Erika is at the tail end of his career" and the next you say, "It doesn't matter though, Erika will just box and move" WTF.

Those 2 statements contradict each other... To be able to box and move you've gotta have some fresh legs and you've already stated that Morales is nearing the end.

I say PACNASTY will win this 3rd bout and since we both strongly disagree. How about we put a bet on it? I'm not asking for whack @ss E - points. I just want to eradicate ******ity on my beloved boxing site . So if you're man enough, you'll bet me and the loser will leave this site for good !

C'mon where's your confidence now Chimp ?

listen...your obviously a biased nuthugger. I said Morales was on the tail end of his career because someone said that Manny was the only person to stop Morales. This being true, that is the reason he was TKO'd. Had it been early in his career, Pac would not even compare. He would get KO'd early and quick. Morales has to box and move. He cant afford to stand and trade. This is what fighters do when they are slightly past there prime. He cant fight the way he use to so he has to fight smart...from the outside. Just like JMM did and he made Pac look foolish. You obviously dont watch alot of boxing with your statements. You probably only watch Pacman fights. Go watch some other weight classes before you run your beak off !!!
