Those are serious and focused words from ”El Terrible” in an interview by Fightnews.  I wonder if those words would have any effect on Manny Pacquiao as he gears up for training going into the Larios showdown.  From all indications, Morales is out to make a big comeback.  His loss to the Pacman is not the one he likes as a decoration to end his career.  Or perhaps, he has plans of taking on Marco Antonio Barrera again to prove that among the great superfeatherweights today, he is the best.

He is taking a lot of inspiration from his family right now, and if you think that means nothing, think again.  He is drawing up emotional strength, an “A” factor in a big-time fight.  That was what probably did him in his loss to Pacquiao — he was emotionally weak going to that fight.  His experience with his father may have been contributory to his latest debacle and he’s up to mending things up and preparing his psyche to be more concentrated the next time around. 

Furthermore, he still has a huge fan base that believes in him.  He owes something big to his fellow Mexicans.  He will make sure that in his next fight, the last thing he would give them is another defeated boxing icon.

Manny Pacquiao should watch out.  He will face a different Erik Morales the next time around.  Erik Morales is hell-bent to take his vengeance.
