		Erik Morales (L) of Mexico battles with Manny Pacquiao of the Philippines during their super featherweight fight at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas November 18, 2006.

	Erik Morales - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Erik Isaac Morales (born September 1, 1976 in Tijuana, Mexico) is a professional boxer and future hall-of-famer.
		Morales bounced back with a dominating 12 round decision victory over the acclaimed Paulie Ayala in November of 2002, and subsequent KO victories of Eddie Croft, Fernando Velardez, and, in a rematch of their first close fight, Guty Espadas Jr.
		Morales is called by his fans a people's champion while critics accuse him of fighting down to his opponents, because he often goes to war with lesser opponents to please the crowd, instead of utilizing his superior boxing skills to win a less exciting fight.

	Morales fought his past, too - The Boston Globe
		That was the way Morales (48-4) appeared late in the fight after Pacquiao had bounced so many well-timed rights and nasty lefts off his head that the three-time world champion later told one of his cornermen, ''I was very dizzy.
		Morales came back against Pacquiao last year, slicing open his right eye in the fifth round on his way to winning a convincing unanimous decision that seemed to reestablish him in the super featherweight division.
		But Morales was struggling now to make that weight, his body rebelling at too long being asked to get down to 130 pounds, so he moved up to 135 but was handily beaten in his first outing by light-hitting Zahir Raheem.

		Morales on the other hand is lanky, for his weight.
		Morales best punch has always been his right hand, he doesn't really have a notible left hook and doesn't really go to the body that much.
		Manny stayed inside against Morales all the time, something he did not do against Barrera, maybe he respected Barrera more for being a strong inside fighter but either way he didnt use his feet to stay out of range when he fought morales like he did against Barrera.
