Why did Manny rematch Morales instead of fighting Raheem?

Yawn.............

Alright Larry, we get it. You have to concentrate on your fight with the Irish knacker this summer. Start training and get rid of that fried chicken grape soda gut.

Simple Larry. He presented a much greater risk with about 1/10th the reward, much less exposure and fight fun.

Who cares though? It's long done with. It was relevant briefly. Then Raheem got KTFO.

Why did lots of fighters fight the much bigger name over the arguably better fighter, at that time at least? Floyd's done it, Pac's done it, Marquez, Hopkins, Jones, blah blah blah have all done it.

[Larry the boss]

because a morales rematch meant more $$$

also raheem would have got TKO'd by Pac anyway

we dont know who would have won

yawn.......................


get a life bro.

go threaten some people on twitter with your chubby ashy knuckles.

translation=you have no answer

Risk/Reward and more $ in a Morales fight.

Plus Freddie Roach is open about avoiding slick boxers.

good answer

As good as Bob Arum is as a promoter it would be hella hard to sell Pac vs Raheem on PPV back then. When there is way more money in a Morales vs Pac rematch.

good answer

Why did Mayweather fight Judah?

I heard Larry once broke into floyd's house to steal some used toilet paper to enshrine it in his closet so he can pray and worship it

Why did Mayweather fight Judah?

But he also fought the guy who beat Judah in his next fight

[bojangles1987]

That's not what you asked.

And considering Pac didn't go to 135 for a couple years after he beat Morales in the rematch, and by that point Raheem was nobody, who cares?

Baldomir also won his next fight after Judah..... Unlike Raheem
