Title: morales v pacman; what a performance Post by: raab11 on November 19, 2006, 06:18:14 AM Having just watched pacman destroy morales in three rounds, i would like to disagree with the widely held opinion that mayweather is the best p4p fighter in the world. manny looked awesome, he has bulked up considerably, he looked like a welterweight. but he has lost none of his speed and accuracy. for me the best performance of the year. for those who didnt see it, morales was down in the 2nd and twice in the 3rd, the 2nd time he just sat on the canvas refusing to get up. anyway great fight, if a little one sided!! for the record, i do think mayweather is great too and believe he will win a comfortable points decision over pretty boy. raab Title: Re: morales v pacman; what a performance Post by: The Baron on November 19, 2006, 04:02:38 PM When Manny beat Barrera before I thought he'd just had a good night over a great fighter. How wrong I was.

Barrera has always been in a different league to Morales - or at least higher up in the same league. The first fight was clearly Barrera's. The second one was closer. Although I'm sure others will differ.

Taking into consideration the fights Morales has had in his career and still fighting people at the top of their game, he is, to me, one of the all time greats. With regards to mayweather, forget about it, I was at the Mandalay Bay few weeks back and the 2 previous fights to that, there is no way in the world he is the best pound for pound, in all fairness, in 1 year or 2 year time, Ricky hatton will wipe the floor with him

I've been saying for ages now that Pacquiao is the best P4P figher in the world. 2 wins over ATG's and future HOF's a draw with the excellent Marquez, (tho Manny should have won due to scoring error) Now he will probably fight Barrera in a rematch or Guzman or Valero. 3 Great fights. This guy goes out and does the business everytime. Title: Re: morales v pacman; what a performance Post by: AdamM on November 25, 2006, 12:11:37 PM Barrerra over Morales for me.
Hatton could beat PBF but 'wipe the floor' no way. |
