PacMan's Corner

I'm rooting for Manny but I'm a bit worried with Morales' weight. If this guy makes the weight-in (130 lbs limit for their featherweight bout), this guy wll surely stock up on food and be bigger come fight time. Notice how stocky Morales was during his first fight with Manny, he seems too large to be a featherweight. More of a lightweight to me. But I just hope that Manny's fingerspeed + power can turn this fight around.

 

 

That's always been Eric Morales', and most boxers, style going into a fight: make the weight limit and bulk-up after. This usually gives them an advantage.

 

But this Manny can take advantage of. Notice how Eric had trouble with Zahir Raheem's handspeed and footspeed. Manny should employ an in-out strategy, moving away from Morales' right hand, and doubling of his southpaw jab.

 

But most importantly, Manny should focus on Eric's body. Most fight afficionados, local and foreign, noticed that EM does not like getting hit on the body. With a very sturdy chin, you will not KO him purely on head punches. But with a consistent body attack, Manny may be able to wear-down EM by the late rounds, and go all-out by the championship rounds.
