    I Agree. If this meth can take Pac to his prime, why can't other boxers follow. I don't get it.

      Hell he wasn't even prime in the first fight.



      Has Pacquiao peaked yet? When is his prime?

          Can you believe how a 1 dimensional fighter who only does right-right-straight left beat a prime Barrera?? Thanks to the Morales loss, Pac team improved his right hand and his overall skills.

            Pound for pound he is a better boxer now than he was when he fought Morales. Back then he was a little bit too crude for my liking. Now he seems more refined, still shows vulnerabilities but his athletism allows him to get away with it.

                for real sir!...imagine if he grew up in a boxing gym, trained by former fighters instead of his uncle who only watched a lot of fernado poe movies!....

                  Exactly......this crudeness and unpredictability is the reason why Pac will never be a great fantasy fighter. He will always lose to past greats in a fantasy fight. He is more of a realistic fighter.........he always surprises.
