Pacquiao/Morales III: will Morales come in overweight?

Yes. I think that he'll take the 2 lbs. that PAC is offering for 1 mil.

12 pounds is a lot of weight to lose in the lighter divisions. But i believed Erik will make it.

i think he will easily get to 130, he is only at 142 now ...

seeing the latest pics, he seem to be in good shape ...

Yeah he looks like he's in a great shape...for a 140lbs fight. Seriously, being 142lbs now with less than a month to go, you'd think he was fighting at 135lbs or really good shape for a 140lbs. The other big thing I'm wondering. Ok so he's been in velocity and working off this weight yet has 12lbs more to go. This means he's gonna be working the rest of the way to get rid of it. Is he training to fight Manny or training to lose the weight? I suppose he really feels he can use the same gameplan as the 1st fight to beat Manny though Manny and Roach worked on a strategy to counter that for the 2nd fight. If Morales tries that same thing in the 3rd fight assuming it really was just weight issues of why he lost the 2nd, then he's gonna take a serious beating.

Will he show up with the money?

i used to think that pac would take this one easily but now i am starting to change my mind a bit. if morales actually is fit for the fight i think he can pull a ud just like he did the first time around. in the second fight he wasnt fit enough to get out of the way of those wild punches that pac throws. if he can get away from them and catch pac off balance we will se another win for morales.

i think morales is risking coming in over weight big time, he's gotta lose 12lbs in a month! that is no easy task and isnt good for you, unless you're a fat sack of **** that can lose 12lbs and it won't effect you, but being as small as he is trying to lose 12lbs that fast is 1: dangerous, 2: extremely straining on the body 3: hard as **** when you're that small.

morales risks coming in over wieght bery easily this time, and he also put himself at risk of losing the fight by doing so.

focusing mainly on weight takes away from you training for the fight because it is the main agenda. also drying out effects a fighters activity level as well as his stamina and overall performance.

morales is in a tough spot.
