pacquiao and morales, which style that will prove who is the best?

i have heard that pacquiao have a tons of support from the filipino community as well as the mexican community.

i have heard that oscar dela hoya will be his promoter soon, is that true?

i have never watch any of their fights and this will be the 3rd time.

what makes this different from the previous two fights?

i used to be a boxing fanatic, but when i see muhammad ali, it makes me sad. i have watched previous matches before, roy jones, oscar de la hoya, cesar chavez, mike tyson, evander hollyfield, george foreman. for me, boxing is real but it damage physically. i'm not against this sport but im sad for the boxer's future if they are not careful..

anyway, im just curious about the commotion this time. everyone in my job is aware of the fights, i just want to know if other is as curious as i am, since im not familiar with the players...

    filipino boxer manny pacquiao used southpaw style, and known as a strong puncher, very aggressive, fast, he is developing his footwork, and counter pounching techniques, his only weakness is his defense, and his determination to play underdog if ever he is dominated by the opponent in the first few rounds. but because of his explosive offense most opponents are struggling defending themselves than executing offense against pacquiao. pacquiao is good in dominating the first few rounds, it means sucess for him. dont also have the mistake of boxing toe to toe with the pacman, that is the mistake of erik morales of using pacquiao's style thinking it would be best to fight head on, it would have been better to prolong the fight, test the stamina of pacquiao, and use defense and tire pacquiao before going all out againsts pacquiao, he went all out in the first three rounds, it puts down morales defense because he went all offense, which gives a heyday for a setup of pacquiao's counter power punches.. causing knockdowns of morales in the bout..

    oscar de la hoya's golden boy productions would want to get pacquiao's management contract, by breaching his current management contract.. and would gladly pay the current manager of all damages due to breach although after the bout current manager clarifies that they are still the manager of pacquiao although pacquaio may still rescind the contract in month's to come..

    boxing is a dangerous game causing severe physical damage and injuries, but it is also within the best interest to safeguard the welfare of our boxers that it would be better to regulatre the sport of professional boxing, than to force it underground, ban boxing and it will just go elsewhere to the underground parking areas, private coloseums, hotel ballrooms, and it will vcause more damage and exploitation to boxers, it may also cause more deaths than what is now, they may say it may cause less deaths, but its untrue, because more deaths will be unreported or misreported for fear due to its illegality under the law, its like choosing the lesser evil, or the issue of alcohol or liquour ban in the early years of 1920s to 1940s. ill choose it to be legal and let the government bodies regulate it than let the boxers be exploited and be helpless againsts gambling lords.. give the boxers the chance to fight with dignity, honor, and give them the recognition which rightfully is theirs to claim due to hard work.. and receive acclaims for it..
