No fight if Erik is over 132lbs!
By Nick Giongco
Ace cornerman Freddie Roach told The Manila Bulletin late Tuesday morning (early Monday night in the US) that Manny Pacquiao won't get into the ring with Erik Morales if the Mexican weighs more than 132 lbs in their scheduled 12-round super-featherweight brawl on Nov. 18 in Las Vegas. "We will take the money and fight Morales if his weight is not more than 132 lbs," Roach said from the Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, California. "Manny and myself have talked about this and we have both agreed. Manny and I agreed that there's going to be no fight if Morales weighs more than that," said Roach, who began training with Pacquiao for the Morales rubber match on Sept. 20. Morales will have to pay $500,000 for every pound in excess of 130 lbs and not the promotional company Top Rank that's going to shell out the money. The same clause also applies to Pacquiao, who, nonetheless is not at all concerned with failing to meet the 130-lb limit. Morales, according to the World Boxing Council, had weighed 142 lbs over the weekend, and is right on target in his weight reduction program under the watchful eyes of experts from the Velocity Sports Performance. The WBC had imposed that Morales should not weigh more than 143 lbs, exactly a month before the showdown. Meanwhile, Roach said Pacquiao was terrific in sparring for ten rounds with three sparmates, including Vicente Escobedo.

well PAC already agreed that morales could weigh in at 132lbs for 1 mil.
it is just fair and it would really be crazy for PAC to fight EM if he weighs in more than that.

good decision by PAC and FR

This was stated by Roach when the fight was signed. Not really news.

I heard that even before the Castillo-Corrales fight and after that wieght in the pressure was more on making the wieght.

A deal is a deal if they want to meet at 130 and both accepted then they should go with the terms.

and Morales was well informed for long time so its his fault if he didnt make the wieght in

I don't see him being any more ripped then Isaral Vasquez or Johnny Gonzalez, even Margarito looks ripped, i think even Arce looks ripped, that i remember in the weigh ins.


For a guy who came from strawweight, pacuqioa should not be looking like that, unless he is on steriods. He came from a small division, and now hes at a higher weight class and he's added all muscle, sombody is using the juice, its very clear.

Also look at Juan Manuel Marquez he's ripped, just look at Chups avatar.
Heres some Margarito shots.

Yup, your boy Juan Manuel Marquez is definitely on the Juice............Chippendale Juice

LMAO @ Morales fans complaining about Pac's advantage this and that.

How quickly did they forget about the gloves incident in the first fight?

What comes around goes around

you cant compare the glove incident with dehydration, the way I look at it they want Morales to come in dehydrated and not at his best.
