Re: Boxing - Nov 2006 Manny Pacquiao v Erik Morales Manny Pacquiao 10 @ 1.5 Paddy Power 19/11/2006 Morales has the experience, good defense, and footwork. But he's got problem with his weight that he began a new way of losing it via Velocity Fitness. In boxing, a problem with one's weight is not a good sign. Pacquiao is a more complete fighter now since his Draw with Marquez. He can punch on any angle, stamina is good, his right hand is doing fine, left is hitting harder than before. This should be an interesting fight. There will be heavy exchanges. They are 1-1 but I see their last fight as the leverage. I expect the drop in weight will lessen Morales’s power and make it easier for Pacquiao to beat Morales.
