Subject: Who Was That Raheem-Morales Judge?
Pedro,
I agree with you that the Erik Morales vs. Zahir Raheem fight was very easy to score. However, I am stunned that some well-respected boxing writers scored the fight for Morales. Some even had Morales winning by 2 points!!!!! I kept thinking that Raheem did not need to win the last 2 rounds. However, I was wrong. This should prove, that a fighter needs to fight for all 12 rounds because crazy scoring does happen.
Emilio Laureano
Dear Emilio,
There seems to be some confusion, as Raul Caiz, the judge who was announced at 115-113 for Z-Man, that he has said his score was 116-112 for Raheem. Caiz is implying that California Commission #2 guy in Dean “Banana Peel” Louhis, that he mixed his score up with Dr. James Jen Kin. Speaking of Louhis, the “Banana Peel,” he is so close to severe disciplinary action. And no, I don’t think his luck isn’t running out, it is beyond depletion! As for writers scoring it for Morales, everybody has a horrid night, whether you are biased, or not. There are a lot of writers, that really don’t know the difference between a left hook, and a fishhook. Pedro.
Subject: You’re Wrong On Tarver-Jones
Pedro,
I saw that you are saying that tarver will beat jones. If you dont mind me asking, why do you say and think that. Me personally, i think that Jones will beat Tarver. He beat tarver in the first fight, and he lost the second one by a perfect shot from Tarver. Anybody can get a good shot in every now and then. I think he just got lucky and i dont see him doing that in the 3rd fight, its possible but i really dont see it. But you almost all the time know what you are talking about so that why i want to know what you personal opinion is on that fight. I hope to hear back from you. Thanks.

Dear Patrick, try and incorporate some capitalization next time. But Tarver-Jones, look at Roy as a “patched” flat tire. Too many patches to make this trip my brother! Pedro
Subject: Anti-Cotto NOT!
Hi my name is Angel, i respect people’s opinions, but what u write on your articles are complete hate. I don’t know what your problem is with Cotto, do you not like him because he’s Puerto Rican or some reason or is that you have some type of agenda with him the man is young and still learning, give him a break you bash on Cotto more than any-fighter since Trinidad am beginning to think you have something against Puerto Rican fighters, are you jealous that Cotto is 24 and making more money then you, or did a Puerto Rican hoop your ass. I am going to keep this email so when Cotto does win a big fight I can email you. 25-0, 21 KO’s!
Angel
Hey Angel, Sorry to upset your apple cart here. My uncle owned a sugar plantation in PR, and we’ve got many ethnicities on the Fernandez side. Here’s the kicker, my father was Portuguese, Spanish, & PR! If I slam somebody, why is it, the ethnic group the fighter belongs to, takes it personal. I only wrote a wrap up of a great-televised fight! If you were not a Johnny come lately, or a know-nothing, you’d know that I’ve written many glowing pieces on the island’s latest phenom! And be glad I cleaned up your scribble, as I didn’t want your shortcomings to be an example of Puerto Ricans being dumb! Pedro
Subject: Arizona Corruption!
Hey Pedro,
I agree with you about Arizona, what a bunch of clowns. How the heck did JC Chavez senior get a license in Arizona so easily at 43 years old? Anyone who knows the biz side of boxing knows how strict the Arizona Commission is, especially when it comes to age. They wouldn’t let Tommy Aragon fight because of his age and nixed a fight for Hector Saez at one point as well. I would like to know if Chavez was made to take the required MRI and CATSCAN tests they were requiring from the lesser-known fighters. Or was he an exception to the rule???
Arizona Boxing Fan!
Dear Arizonan, All I can do is report the facts as they’re presented. Not Mr. Montano, not the Commission, not Mary Rose Wilcox, not Peter Mc Kinn, none of them have actually refuted anything that we’ve said, or written. I left my number on Montano’s machine a few times. Pedro
Subject: Manny Pacquiao Will Never Beat Erik!
Sir Pedro,
This is just to comment on your write-ups against the Manny Pacquiao fans in the Philippines. Actually, these guys were right and they just expressed their feelings when Pacquiao wins his fight. To tell you the truth, I’m an avid fan also of Manny and I would like to remind you that you consider how high did Manny jump from his level from a 112lbs to 130lbs. You did not also evaluate how did Manny did it and what force he has why he beats those guys along his ways in going-up just to fight for Morales. About Marquez, I tell you he was the lucky guy.
Regards,
Edgar
Dear Edgar, you are yet another example of somebody that read one story. I’ve pointed out that Manny has went from 112 to 130, etc. many times. Where have you been? Pedro
Subject: Crazed Filipino Fan
“Pacquiao Wins, But He’ll Never Beat Erik,” well well!!! thats your opinion!! every person has diffirent opinion!! . first ill ask u question… why barrera is ducking pacquiao …barrera has manny excuses.. ” my opinion is,,” Barrera , hell never beat PacMan” watch again the fight there is a mismatch.. there is no excuse for that.. and his ducking pacman.. that why he moves up to division.. and also marquez why is he asking for a lot of money.. is he a entertaining boxer.he asking big money because if he loses to pacman. he’s career is over..A true champion is Pacman… even morales deafeted by Barrera and Raheem..He wants to face morales.. many boxer has a good record than marquez but were are they.. thats the diference between a good and entertaining fighter “Pacman” than a good fighter..like marquez ..People. are paying money for a good boxing.. not just boxing..and beside Pacman give him a break>>marquez> but where is he now.. and also try to ask a great fighter like tyson, roy jones and any fighter who’s there Favorite boxer.in featherweight division.what names come out..? PACMAN.. Now THats my opinion..
Richard Romero
Dear Richard, Were you ever educated in basic writing? You maybe right on Barrera-Pacquiao, but unless Manny can totally take Erik out of his game plan, and early, like he did Marco the first time, then he’ll beat Morales. I just don’t see that happening! Pedro
Subject: Fake Name Email On Wlad-Peter
Did I read that right? “With a number of close rounds to score” Are you joking or high? Take away two rounds, the 5th and 10th, and this was a whitewash. Not to mention rabbit punching is illegal, only one knockdown, the last one was from a punch to a legal area of the body, the temple of Wladimir. “Wladimir’s career will be over” Your career, or what you might call a career IS….deleted!
Michael Youseff
Dear Michael,
The way Wlad fought, like a “beeach,” it would make anybody not hugging Klitschko’s nuts realize that he still can’t fight! And if he were not 6’7, he wouldn’t even be a top 25 contender. Your boy, Wlad is a fraud! And my friend Manny Steward, he can do all that he can. But not even the Goldfather, not even he can make chicken soup out of chicken-spit! Pedro
Subject: Suing Don King
