// I was surprised on the result of this fight, at first I thought that Manny will KO Morales on the 9th round as he releases this word way before the fight during his interviews. Morales didnt expected that his fight with Pacman will end in round 3. It was a good psi war during the release of their interviews on TV. Pacman did a good punch during the start of the match.
more reviews coming up after I watched the replay of the Pacquiao-Morales III

Manny Pacquiao Crushes Erik Morales By KO
They said he could not get any bigger, but Manny Pacquiao (43-3-2, 33KOs) is on top of the world after knocking out Erik Morales (48-5, 24KOs) in three rounds in a short, but brutal bout.
The Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas, Nevada was an absolute zoo on Saturday night, as thousands of Mexican and Filipino fans sold out the building to catch third bout of a rivalry that captured the attention of boxing fans all over the world.
The fight started slow in the first round, but they began to throw plenty of leather in the second round. After the two fighters began to exchange huge punches in the second, Morales went down from a big right hand while he left himself open.
They went to war in the final seconds of round two to make the entire arena erupt with applause.
At the start of the third and final round, Pacquiao began to batter Morales with power punches that had the tough Mexican on very unsteady legs. A barrage of punches sent Morales down for the second time. He was able to make it to his feet, but Pacquiao attacked him with big combinations to put him back in trouble.
Morales tried in vain to fight Pacquiao off, but he was unable to fight off, as another set of hard punches sent him down to the mat for the third time. Morales sat on the canvas, looked to his corner and indicated that he had enough, taking the full count from the referee to give Pacquiao the third round knockout win.
