I really hope the Pacquiao-Barrios fight doesn’t happen.

    I always hoped Manny would avoid the same old fate of old fighters getting beat up by young guys. But at some point I stopped caring because these guys are gonna do what they're gonna do. If not even his wife can stop him then just fine, stop caring.

    Yeah but that was a bait and switch. Pbc did pac dirty. Ugas posted videos of him sparring with southpaws which makes no sense since his opponent was right handed.
    Ugas knew that he was the replacement fighter for either Spence or Pacquiao if one of them pulled out, and both were southpaws. That wasn't a bait and switch at all, it was just good planning. Pac was ancient and Spence was recovering from a serious injury, there was a reasonable chance one of them wouldn't be able to fight.

    Prime Pacquaio I’d pick to win easily.

    Past prime Pacquaio but still elite (2012-2015) I’d also pick to win relatively easily

    But today’s 46 year old version? Only ends one way (vs Ennis)

    Pacquaio is one of the greatest fighters that has ever lived. He doesn’t belong any where near a boxing ring now. It’s only going to damage his legacy losing to the likes of Barrios who he would beat in 6 rounds or less in his prime.

    I think Barrios wins this fight. Like a 8-4 or 9-3 type of fight.
    I predicted Ugas last time too.

    Pacquiao not getting stopped but Barrios beats him up worse than Ugas.

    Manny's style is just not ideal for aging fighters. He just doesn't have the punch resistance of Foreman or the elusiveness of Hopkins.

    He's a legend but old and couldn't do a thing in his last pro fight and looked awful in that exhibition he had

    Money talks though
    to be fair,, ugas is HUGE!!!! but he did look bad in his exi fight tho but that japanese guy was huge 2x the size of manny.

    Wow. People still give him shlt for the Jeff horn robbery but imagine losing to Mario barrios. Embarrassing

    Pbc is so pathetic
    He already lost to Ugas right before Barrios made Ugas look as old as Pac.

    You know I am just trolling on that.
