Steve Kim is reporting this could be on for 19th March. This years line up is starting to look good already.

I'm looking forward to Kermit Cintron v Antonio Margarito too

What a fight that would be (Pac Vs El T). It seems the logical progression for Morales after losing to MAB, if you can't beat the man who beat you, beat the man who beat him

Great fight let's hope it happens, as the lower weights constantly get it on amongst one another it puts the so called big names at the higher weights (you know who you are) to shame. Morales-Pacquiao should be a cracker, i see Morales winning though with Pacquiao walking onto those classy counter shots all night. Cintron-Margarito should be a classic, big punching Cintron versus none stop puncher Margarito there should be fireworks.

I still would rather see Pac Man vs Marquez.

Me too but surely we cannot complain at Morales-Pacquiao?

Cracking matchup, if Morales could beat Pacquio (and I'd pick him) a 4th fight with Barrera would be impossible to avoid.

According to industry sources, the match is being made by Top Rank to put Marco Antonio Barrera and Golden Boy Promotions in a bind. With Morales and Pacquiao facing each other, Barrera finds himself for the time being without a big-name opponent.

Harrison vs Barrera? I know Harrisons fighting against Polo on the 28th of this month so providing he wins that why not? He was ringside for Barrera v Morales something not gone unoticed by Barrera and his camp. Harrisons been making noises about it being the fight he wants as well.
Warren's come good lately with Williams Kilitschko and Hatton Tsyzu it would be unbeliveable if he could deliver this as well.

If it's at super featherweight, Morales should be favourite, Pacman has never fought at the weight and is a little guy, but he's incredibly strong and could come in under the weight and keep his considerable advantages in hand speed.

it was noticable that Barrera seemed stronger than Morales at Sr feather, and Manny is a very strong guy.

I think it's a hell of a fight, Manny is very fast, and let's face it, Morales isn't exactly impossible to hit, although he has a great chin, Manny has the speed and unorthodox punching style to hurt anyone, and I reckon we might finally see morales whiskers severely tested.

Its definitely at 130. I fancy Pac to win on points, get the feeling the wars are catching up with Morales.

This definitely increases Scot's chances of a Barrera fight - assuming Frank Baloney is not just blowing hot air, that is.
Although Barrera / Marquez must be in the running too.

I think that Morales will win rather comfortably, He is a great counterpuncher and after 6-7 rounds off being countered Pacquio won't be able to change his game plan and will probabley lose by a wide margin or late stoppage.

JMM priced himself out of a rematch with Pac, this after stinking out the joint on the undercard of the biggest card he will ever fight on. Seems he wasn't as confident of beating Pac as many of the guys on this forum thought.

Whatever, he has my respect for life after unbelieveably picking himself off the canvas three times in one round - turning what looked like becoming mismatch of the year, into fight of the year.

Although I know MAB/MORALES III will get the vote.

By the way - I notice a lot of writers are calling their 3rd fight one of the best ever seen - but I still reckon their first fight topped the lot.

Great fight Morales will win for me Pac man used to be a Flyweight and I think the weight will be a big advantage. Morales though has only been troubled by Barrera. Intresting to see what Marquez or Harrison will do given that all the big names are now at Super Feather

What a great fight!

I find it very hard to pick a winner in this bout. But i think i'll probably go with Morales...just a gut feeling.
