    Have you seen Manny lately? Pacquaio should NOT be fighting, dude is gonna get killed with his physical condition. Reminds me of Ali at end of his career.

      Thats the problem when they have some success late career then they can never get enough.

      He beat Thurman at 40 and won a title and people already knew he slowed down a lot then but pulled it off, but that wasnt good enough, now its 6 years later and hes super shot and and a weaker guy than past it Thurman has a title so he wants to go for it again.

      If he somehow won that would make it even worse then he will come back at 50.

      I dont want to hear about hopkins either, did you see the last 5 years of his career his fights were horrible his gimmick at the end would be to try to play up any minor occurrence to the ref to try to force a DQ win, it was pathetic

        This he looked really bad against a kickboxer anpo

        he resets constantly before he throws. even a kickboxer could outbox him, its not hard to do, any pro top 30 who is under 40 should be able to beat him

          Manny is still worth money as a novelty. I will admit, Philipinos have a fountain of youth. An ability to look young, but its 30, 30, 30, 47.
