Check out my rankings within each boxing division by clicking on the links below. The rankings are updated on the second Thursday of each month.

 

Who is the world's best fighter, regardless of weight class? See my pound-for-pound rankings .

 

JUNIOR LIGHTWEIGHTS (130 POUNDS)

 

1. Manny Pacquiao (42-3-2)

 

Although he didn't look great and was badly hurt with a left hook in the third round, Pacquiao dominated Oscar Larios in the second half of the fight to thrill his hometown fans in the Philippines. Now it's on to an HBO PPV rubber match with Erik Morales.

Next: Nov. 18 vs. Morales.

 

2. Marco Antonio Barrera (62-4)

Barrera is showing that he is a true champion by giving Rocky Juarez an immediate rematch after barely escaping with a split decision and his title in their first action-packed fight on May 20.

Next: Sept. 16 vs. Juarez.

 

3. Erik Morales (48-4)

Former champ is going to work with a conditioning coach and a nutritionist in preparation for his third fight with Pacquiao. Morales hopes the new program will keep him from fading late in the fight like he did when Pacquiao knocked him out in the 10th round of their January rematch.

Next: Nov. 18 vs. Pacquiao.

 

4. Jorge Barrios (46-2-1)

After initially rejecting a fight with hot contender Joan Guzman, Barrios came around and agreed to defend his belt against him on the Sept. 16 Barrera-Juarez II HBO PPV card. It could steal the show.

Next: Sept. 16 vs. Guzman.

 

5. Rocky Juarez (25-2)

He's got his rematch with Barrera. Now it's up to him to seize the moment and win the fight he came so close to winning when they met in May.

Next: Sept. 16 vs. Morales.

 

6. Carlos Hernandez (41-6-1)

Former titlist returns from being robbed of a decision against Bobby Pacquiao last fall to headline on Telefutura against Shaun Plessis (17-2).

Next: July 14 vs. Plessis.

 

7. Vicente Mosquera (24-1-1)

Mandatory challenger Edwin Valero is 19-0 with 19 KOs, including 18 in the first round and one in the second round. Can Mosquera end his amazing knockout streak? Given Mosquera's depth of experience and the fact that he will have the home-field advantage in Panama, we think he can.

Next: Aug. 5 vs. Valero.

 

8. Yodsanan Nanthachai (47-3-1)

Former titlist from Thailand has won four fights in a row against nothing opponents since losing his belt to Mosquera in April 2005. For reasons that have not been entirely explained, he skipped an opportunity to fight for a vacant belt in May. Some say he had a cut. Others say he was overweight.

Next: TBA.

 

9. Alex Arthur (23-1)

European champ from Scotland had a chance to fight Robbie Peden in a September title elimination bout, but turned it down.

Next: TBA.

 

10. Joan Guzman (25-0)

He took the proposed fight against Barrios without hesitation, and when Barrios backed out, Guzman then agreed to fight a title eliminator against Peden. But then Barrios changed his mind, and the fight is back on. Buckle your seat belt for this one.

Next: Sept. 16 vs. Barrios.

NAGHAHANDA NA SI MANNY!

 

Yehey...

 

Unfortunately... it is not for his November fight with Morales... but for his "concert"...

 

Anakngputa talaga whoever encouraged Manny to pursue a singing career... we have enough dancing bears to keep us entertained... we definitely DO NOT need Manny's singing... we NEED MANNY TO KEEP WINNING!

Too many distractions for Manny. He should know better that boxing fans, and hanger on, are very fickle. Let's hope he doesn't get a rude awakening and just stick to what he is really good at. He dosen't have a lot of years left ast the top of his game as boxers have very shhort self lives. Once he's done with his career, he can sing his lungs out for all I care.

Talo si Brian Villoria. Eh d Mababawasan na yung mga taga ibang bansa na Fil-Ams, Fil-Chi, Fil-Arabo, Fil-Jap na sisigaw na "May lahi Filipino Ako"

 

Pag si Pacman natalo sigurado mababawasan din yung sumisigaw ng ganun.

 

Wag nyo na kasi isali sa Boxing ang pagkaFilipino. Nagpapabola kayo sa ABS-CBN na Filipino vs Mexican eh.

 

IBa kasi pag Boxing eh. I dont even consider Boxing na Sport eh.

 

So wag na yung "We should be Proud kasi Filipino ang nanalo" Ang mga Pinoy pa naman madali makalimot. If ever matalo si Pacman bigla nakakalimot mga Pinoy sa mga Achievement na nagawa nya noong nanalo pa siya. Bigla nagkakaroon ng Amnesia mga Pinoy.

 

Pag natalo si Pacman, Sisihin nyo na kasi ganyan kasi ganito.......Ang dami dahilan pa naman mga Majority ng Pinoy pag natatalo. (Pag Natalo Dinaya sabi ng mga Ginebra Fans. Joke lng! Ginebra Fans Wag maiinis :upside: )

 

Noong nanalo si Hawaiian Punch eh marami sumisigaw na "May Dugong Filipino yan" "Kababayan natin yan"

 

Eh ngayon natalo Wala ata Sumsigaw. "Baka ang sinisigaw ng mga nagiinuman----- "Hindi yan puro Filipino, Nahaluan ng Hawaiian yan" (Pure Filipino Blood si Viloria sa Hawaii lang lumaki)

 

*Narinig nyo ba yung hosting ni Chino and Quinito? Parang naghahanap pa ng Dahilan bakit natalo si Viloria. Hindi nila masabi na halatang halata natalo si Viloria. Natatawa ako dun sa sinabi nila na after marinig yung Scorecards. "Yan po ang tingin ng mga judges"

 

PUTRAGIIIIIS naman. Pag Talo, at kitang kita sa TV na talo talaga. Tahimik na lng. Prepare na lng for the Next Match para makabawi.

Napikon si Morales. Minaliit si Pacquiao at wala daw siyang respeto sa boxing skills nito. Hmmm, kaya pala natulog siya nung huli nilang laban. Sana pagbigyan ni Manny ang request ni Erik.

Morales dares Pacquiao to retire him

By Joaquin Henson

The Philippine Star 08/17/2006

 

LAS VEGAS – The real Erik Morales emerged in a moment of transparency, if not weakness, during the recent Wynn Hotel press conference announcing his third fight against Manny Pacquiao on Nov. 18.

 

Morales was clearly peeved when in a STAR interview, he recoiled when asked to comment on Pacquiao’s reported objective of forcing his retirement.

 

"Let him tell that to me, to my face," said Morales in Spanish. He added something about Pacquiao that’s not fit to print.

 

Before his emotional outburst, Morales appeared cordial and civil towards Pacquiao with whom he shared the stage last Saturday in drumbeating for the "Grand Finale," the climax of their trilogy.

 

But don’t even think for a second they’re the best of friends. Their rivalry is seething and Morales realizes the coming bout will not only be for pride but his survival in the fight game.

 

Morales’ dare for Pacquiao to retire him exposed the sense of urgency that hangs over the Mexican’s head like a sword of Damocles. He was irritable and shaken up by the thought that retirement will be imminent if Pacquiao wins convincingly.

 

Morales tried to show a façade of confidence, smiling broadly at reporters and posing for pictures with wife Andrea and their baby son Erik Jr. But whenever he stole a glance at Pacquiao, there appeared to be a look of concern, if not disdain.

 

But the interview went on.

 

Who is a better fighter, Pacquiao or Marco Antonio Barrera? Me, he replied curtly.

 

How do you intend to fight Pacquiao – from a distance or close in? He smiled as if to sneer and said he’ll do what it takes to win.

 

What does he consider to be Pacquiao’s weaknesses? Again, he smiled and said he’d rather not say.

 

What does he intend to do differently in the third fight? He said he doesn’t respect Pacquiao’s boxing ability. Morales pointed out he won the first fight because he was in good physical condition and lost the second because he was not in shape. The defeat to Pacquiao had nothing to do with the Filipino being a better fighter – Morales insisted it was because he was not in shape.

 

Morales vowed to be in his best form for the third meeting and that’s why he said, he’ll win.

 

On his much-ballyhooed conditioning program in Los Angeles, Morales said it’s proceeding on schedule. He declined to reveal how much he weighs now although his weight was estimated to be in the 145 to 150 range. Morales has up to Nov. 17, the day before the fight, to weigh in at 130.

 

Morales said there are seven training, conditioning and nutrition specialists working with him at the Velocity Sports Performance gym in Los Angeles to prepare his body for the grueling workouts waiting at the Otomi Mountains in Mexico.

 

Top Rank Promotions head Bob Arum said Velocity was the same gym where Oscar de la Hoya underwent highly-specialized training for two years. Arum said the press will be invited soon to inspect the facility.

 

Morales said he watched Pacquiao beat Oscar Larios on TV and wasn’t impressed.

 

"It was nothing to be excited about because Larios was too easy an opponent," said Morales. "Pacquiao’s win didn’t mean anything because he won without difficulty."

 

Morales also didn’t seem excited about rehiring his father Jose as trainer. "Nothing new in what we’ll work on in the gym," he said. "We’ll just review the good things we did before. The real key is my conditioning."

 

Morales’ father was sidelined as trainer after he lost to Zahir Raheem last year and was not in his corner for the second Pacquiao fight.

 

Throughout the press conference, Morales put up a charade of being a humble fighter, grateful for the opportunity to redeem himself after losing three of his last four bouts.

 

However, his true colors surfaced when he was posed a difficult question that revealed his irascible nature.

 

Arum said Morales is a sketch of a perfect fighter to promote because he is a warrior who never says die.

 

"Erik is very determined and he is anxious to take on Pacquiao for a third time," said Arum. "These two great champions have always given it their all, each and every second in the ring, especially against each other. I expect this third fight to be the most exciting of the trilogy and that’s saying something."

As long as the PacMan will not be overconfident against Morales and trains hard he'll win for sure. The element of "tsamba" is always there. Lalo pa kung magaling ang kalaban like Morales. Larios almost had PacMan because of his overconfidence. But when he took Larios seriously on the next rounds, Larios was nowhere near PacMan's caliber.
