Am i the only one who thinks Pacman is past prime?

[Syf]

i personally think he is much slower than the dela hoya fight.. he also doesnt move his head that much unlike his fight with dela hoya..

He was shacked up with a broad the night before the fight. That PI actress chick...


True story.



If anything will bring Pac down it will be heedlessness like that... He might have destroyed Cotto outright if he had taken the bout a bit more seriously. My prediction was actually TKO in the 6th. But I didn't factor in "happy time" with Miss Filipino... Otherwise I would have chose the later rounds..or even a UD for Pac

He's quite an experience fighter now but not in his prime anymore, but still he's too much for some welterweight fighters today.

i wouldnt say hes past prime but he wasnt that fast in the cotto fight.

there are alot of flaws inhis games as recent as the cotto fight.

FLoyd is going to take him apart

Believe it or not Pacquiao haven't reach his prime as of yet. He's a late bloomer and I think another couple of fights then will see a prime Pacquiao.

Physically i think Pac is past prime. I dont think he's gotten any faster since the Marquez rematch.

But from a technique standpoint Pac's better than he's ever been and I think the lack of head movement is a testament to how much he's improved.

He used to be a whirlwind with no defense that relied on speed and movement to avoid getting hit and just wailing away from all sorts of weird angles. Now his whole body is a well oiled machined and he's become a reflexive fighter that reacts to what his opponent does. He only moves his head to counter or to improve his angle. He's now moving his whole body like a missle to get in and out of range as opposed to flailing around like a bobble head and plodding forward in hopes to get in range to throw bombs.

well-said!

Which are all true, but nontheless Pac will KO mayweather within 8

When Pac was in his prime he was a one dimensional fighter.
