                    [Summary] => 



Don’t close the book yet on the Manny Pacquiao-Erik Morales rivalry.


Unless other things get in the way, there’s still a possibility that these two great warriors, in a year or two, may meet a fourth time – not in the super-featherweight division but in the lightweight class.

"Maybe it’s possible. Even the others might follow me at 135. But it won’t be good for them. I’m very comfortable at this weight. I’m already very tired at 130," said Morales the other day.

Jose Luis Lopez, the brand-new trainer of the great Mexican fighter, issued this warning Thursday or two days before Morales climbs the ring against Manny Pacquiao at the Thomas and Mack Center here.

The 58-year-old Lopez, who takes the place of Morales’ father Jose in the Mexican corner, faced the media in a round-table discussion, then talked about some of the changes in Morales’ training and how he hopes they would lead them to victory.
