POST SCRIPT: PACQUIAO vs BARERRA 2

Manny Pacquiao was lucky to have survived considering that he had to undergo shock therapy to be able to make the required weight, a day before the bout. The last time he did that, he was knocked out. The same was the problem of Erik Morales prior to his last bout with Pacquiao. Morales had difficulty going down to the required weight and looked very thin and unhealthy during the weigh in and before the fight.

One good way to lose weight within a few days is to limit the diet intake and combine it with cardio workout and a lessening of one's water intake. Analyzing the news reports, that's what he did. Now, try asking your gym instructor what can possibly happen if you do that? In addition, try asking your gym instructor what will happen if you engage in 12 rounds of championship boxing 24 hours after rapidly losing weight?

The results can be fatal, amigo.

As for Barrera, he was not the avenging hero that he portrayed himself to be prior to the bout. It was more of a scared fighter trying not to get knocked down....

Gotta sleep for now. Will continue this post tomorrow.

Annoyed by the many commercials I stopped watching the game on TV. Anyway I knew the outcome of the game early on courtesy of my son who looked it up on the internet...
