Mayweather with no trouble at all.... but Pacquiao is still as of right now a greater fighter/boxer than Mayweather...
You didn't read any of the other posts did you? Unlike you I actually admit when I exaggerate. And please X you of all people whos predictions are "Mayweather by murder" or tyson KO 1 with ease) and all that shit against other great fighters...you should probably just shutup. People seem to forget how good erik was, and how Mayweather is when against a dangerous opponent, trust me, he wouldn't be goin for the kill and get no stoppage.
morales wasnt even at his best in this scenario. He'd already been through hell and back, in no less than 5 all out wars that had taken their toll by the time the first pacquiao fight rolled around. if anything you should put morales from his first bout at 130lbs against Mayweather jr who was at his absolute peak. not to mention morales was in his third division. regardless, it aint a winnable fight for Morales.
this is a ridiculous take. Morales at 130 was an A level fighter, unlike ALL of Floyd's opponents. There is no way Erik is getting overwhelmed by Floyd's pussy style. Floyd wins an 8-4 type of fight I think, but it could easily get out of hand, and who knows how Floyd would fare if he had to fight someone near his level.
Corrales KO's Morales @ 130. Floyd's style @ 130 was clearly not what it is today. He wouldnt have to fight like a "pussy" vs Morales. Erik had NO power with which to bother Floyd with. Erik was also too slow to do anything but get his face punched in.
In all honesty I dont see much if ANY difference between Floyd's style then and now other than the fact that he had more pop at 130. He was still super cautious in the face of ANY perceived threat. Morales had a much more accurate, varied, subtle and effective offensive arsenal than any guy Floyd has fought sans Old Oscar. Floyd would show him respect and Morales would make the early rounds competitive. Floyd 8-3-1. Floyd up 4-3 after 7, with some relatively generous scoring to the more aggressive Mexican, Morales fights for a share of a 12th Floyd cruises through after pretty much dominated 8-11, probably dropping Morales along the way. Nobody debates the decision.
And X shows his radical predictions once again. You do know before Pacman finally stopped a over the hill war torn Erik Morales Erik was known as one of the toughest and best chins of all time right? Stop predicting shit you don't know. My prediction Coralles gets KO'd within 8 rounds and Erik was not that show...I don't know what fights you are watchin. And PBF was great but fought no one like Erik at that weight... But this is pointless you will probably just comeback with (PBF KO 2) (Corrales via death)
I stick by what I said 5 years ago. Floyd late TKO in a mismatch. He'd light up Morales horribly. And I also stick to what I said about Corrales stopping Morales at 130.
People forget that Morales looked near done before the Pac fight. That was an embarrassing loss for Pac. Floyd doesn't stop him. I could see Morales giving him a rough fight and winning 3 or 4 rounds.
Morales had nada for Floyd at 130. Floyd was too quick on the trigger, and on the counter, and too strong for Morales as well. And Morales doesn't have the power to hurt Floyd even when he does land. It'd be a wipe out.
Morales was adaptable/smart & tough enough to make a fight of it. He'd take a few rounds but lose a comfortable decision.
Ehhhh, yeaaa I don't see it. Morales ain't adjusting to Floyd. The gap in speed is too wide, and Morales sure as FUCCKKK isn't gonna out think Floyd. He's not gonna outfight Floyd either as Floyd at 130 was a lot physically stronger than Morales and had more firepower. It would take someone with the firepower of Arguello to threaten Floyd at 130. Morales just ain't gonna cut it.
If Castillo & Hernandez can take rounds with smart pressure, punch variety, feints the morales who beat pac can take a few I think. He was no dope
Spadafora wasn't it? yeah i wouldnt read too much into that. Id read allot into Morales being a badass little lunatic who was also really really good tho.
