hello, been a long time lurker, joined up today and hope I can win some people money with my picks, I know some of you guys win me lot!!!
erik morales v. manny pacquiao. my pick: erik morales +152 3***
money is flowing in on pacquio this week. the lines moved from morales +112 to +152 this week. morales is naturally bigger than pacquiao, he hits very hard, is experienced and the deciding factor is he's never been knocked out. the public is enamored of pacquiao's performance over marco antonio barrerra where he brutalized him before stopping him. they wrongly assume a beats b, b beats c, so a beats c. this doesn't apply in boxing terms as far as power goes either. muhammed ali knocked out oscar bonavena, whereas joe frazier who definitely was a much harder puncher couldn't budge bonavena. I believe we'll see the same thing tonight. also since this is boxing, we have the judges to consider. call me cynical but this helps us also, as two straight losses for morales might really hurt his box office appeal, and his promoter isn't anxious for something like that. this fight will be close, action packed and a morales victory. I bet all my fights to win a set amount in unit terms, so this is three units to win 4.56 units.
good luck
