        0. Did you not see the Ugas fight, the Yoo exhibition, or the Anpo exhibition?

          manny is no longer quick enough to counter is what I saw with Anpo

          the timing is no longer there

          manny knows positioning but can’t pull the trigger on those openings

            I think he's going to come out strong to prove a point or show he's still the Manny of old. He'll probably get some nice shots in, but they won't do enough to hurt Barrios badly or put him away. Barrios will continue walking through whatever he has to until Manny realizes he can't put him away and the old man legs show up around rd. 3 or 4. From there on I don't know what he reverts to. Just stands and tries to **** with the fresher, younger dude? Cause his legs won't allow him to run away or retreat as easily as he had in the past.

            There is really not too many outcomes for Manny to win this barring a 1-3 rd KO. If it goes beyond 3, it will not look good for Manny. If Manny is not looking good in rd1-3, it will never look better. That's when they might want to think about pulling him out a couple rds after the 3rd when they realize he has nothing else to offer.

              Barrios has a low KO ratio (62%) and looked like ass in his last fight (which he arguably LOST) so I give Pacquiao a decent shot.

                Pacquiao looked much, much worse in his last fight and that was four years ago. Then he looked even worse in his two exhibitions.

                Pac hasn't won a fight in six years.

                  Manny is fast starter

                  he'll be uncomfortable if the early rounds don't go his way!

                    What are you talking about? 40yo Pacman dropped and beat a prime, undefeated Thurman taking both his cherry AND belt. Having said that, I agree that he looked shot in his last exhibition against the Japanese kickboxer although he still has the handspeed and footspeed to trouble Barrios in the early rounds. However, his punch resistance has definitely gone but luckily for him Barrios is a fairly tame puncher.
