Morales sets sights on another Pacquaio fight

Erik Morales is back in the gym after a 2 1/2 year layoff.

Three-division world champion Erik ā€œEl Terribleā€ Morales, the last opponent to defeat Manny Pacquiao, returns from a 2 1/2-year layoff March 27 to headline ā€œThe Champion Returnsā€ pay-per-view event.

Morales (48-6, 34 KOs) may have his sights set on a fourth fight against Pacquaio in the not too distant future, but the iconic Mexican warrior must first get past former WBA lightweight champion and Nicaraguan KO specialist, Jose ā€œJicarasā€ Alfaro (23-5, 20 KOs), Mar. 27 in the 12-round main event for the vacant WBC Intercontinental welterweight crown.
