that sounds like an excuse. Ugas just nullified him. His jabs and right hands couldn't miss. Bad style match up for Pac.Comment

Pacquiao again is in the heat of excuse making. Yet takes shots at Mayweather every chance he gets? Oh, I get it, take on “real” challenges, then make those professional hard working opponents feel like they really didn’t earn the win - when they really did?!?Comment

I watched Pacquiao get his legs massaged before the fight and thought of the great Emmanuel Stewart’s reaction when Thomas Hearns got a leg massage before the Hagler fight.
(The talk of the massage starts at 12:55 of the Legendary Nights Episode)
“One of the guys, one of the hanger ons at least, massaged Thomas’ legs down. And when I came up, I ran him out of the room and I knew then we were going to have a major problem. The massage leaves the body spent. So going into the fight, we was worried.”
Of course Pacquiao’s legs cramped. He’s doing something to his legs that Emmanuel Stewart thinks is an awful idea.Comment

I noticed in his training that he wears taller socks. I’m not sure if they are compression wear for your calves. bought a pair if compression sleeves for the calves Ran in them and got cramps. Threw those right into the trash.
yes, they make compression sleeves for your calves. They are bad and it looks cool but it’s a gimmick.
I can’t say If Manny was training in those or not.
all I’m saying is long socks are fine. Compression sleeves for your calves are bad.
it doesn’t matter if he was cramping up, you’re 42 and you slow down. It’s part of being an athlete at that age.
he was getting hit all night and couldn’t get inside.
Manny, go back to 140. Fight a smaller guy.
