Predictions for tonight's fight... I'm hoping it will go the distance and end with a Pacquiao SD.
I was hoping last night's fight would be the fight of the year. Waste of $60, two bad decisions before the main event and than the 3rd RD KO. Morales didn't even try to get up, there goes his career.
ah man, it wasnt anything close to being a tight decision or anything.
erik got outdone and thats quite sad.
i suppose after that fight, where could erik go?
pacman has options and seems on top of things. perhaps erik just wasnt in the right mindframe which overshadowed his obvious skills and craftmanship.
overall, what a shame, especially for one of them anyway.
damn... Pacquiao was just too much for Morales... 3 knockdowns in 3 rounds.... i was sorta rooting for Morales but reality plays it differently.. props to Pacquiao... what a figter.. he landed 54% of all his punched thrown...damn..
co-sign. I think Morales was in the right frame of mind but it is obvious to me now that he is not able to absorb the punishment anymore. Happens to the best of them. Props to Erik for manning up after the fight and giving Manny his praises for his speed and power. Morales has too much pride to start taking B-level fights...I think we've seen the last of this great warrior.
I would rather see pacquiao fight marquez then barrera if i remember right didnte pacquiao allready beat the shit out of barrera? and marquez and pacquiao had a real close fight in which there should have been a remacth
^^^ Yea, I was impressed with Marquez' KO win over Jaca last week. At first, IMO he was struggling with the young kid, but he pulled it together in the mid rds. Pacman v. Marquez first fight was a draw and I guess alot of people had Marquez up on points who were not judges.I don't think Marquez can stay up with Manny now b/c Pacman is a much better fighter today than he was 2 years ago. Hopefully in the end, Pacquiao goes with the better fight instead of the higher paying one.
After seeing Barrera in with Juarez twice I'm not so sure he's got a whole lot left in the gas tank (like Morales). He's still throwing short, hard shots but the combos and movement aren't there like they used to be. JMM is a great tacticion but I don't think he carries enough power to really hurt MAB either. I don't see MAB winning on points, he'd have to knock out JMM, which is a fucking hard thing to do. JMM matches up best with Pac but like others have said, I think Manny is simply too much right now. I'd love to see Rocky Juarez get a couple more fights under his belt and then take on Manny. Dude just needs to let his hands go more...
Ok what is everyone watching tonight? HBO or Showtime? I'd rather watch the showtime fights, but I have HBO. Still a good night for boxing on both stations.
In order of how entertaining they'd be...
Cotto > Quintana
Winky > Quartey ...TKO
Margarito > Clottey ...TKO
Lacy > Tsypko ...TKO
I can't believe Margarito couldn't get him outta there. That's got to hurt the buzz about his power shots, etc.
lacy did not look too good in his fight and got lucky it should have been a draw. winky looked good as allways now if tayler wins maybe we can have a rematch.
Now that it's been revealed that Lacy faught from the second round on with a torn rotator cuff everyone is back on his sack. Kinda ironic... He'll be out for 6 months to year. Sucks to be him.
taylor won but i dont think there will be a remacth between him and winky they said taylor might calzaghe this is looking like a reamacth that will never happen or it will happen too long fron now
