Just watched the match today. I say that Fahsan was no match against Pacman. He is just not on the level the Pacman is at. I'm not saying he was a patsy coz the guy showed a heart of a warrior just fighting one of the fiercest and feared featherweights in the world (just ask JMM after the fight) and MAB even know . The Thai was not a pushover and had good body movements and was able to tagged Manny a few times in the fight. He just cannot match MAnny's dominance, confidence, power, speed and boxing abilities.
I noticed that Manny was flatfooted in the first round and was trying more to use his right hand. He threw pretty good right jabs, right hooks and a few good body shots. I'm glad that he was able to execute his new weapons especially the right hook although it was the left uppervuts that proved to be lethal. I think Freddie needs to polish it a little bit more (I suggest tying his left hand during a sparring session ) I noticed that his right jabs had more power in them and gave a more varied combinations from any angles. Even the overhand left produced the first legit KD in round 2. His left hand was still definitely fast and deadly. I didn't see a lot of bobbing and weaving but I guess it's because he had figured Fahsan early and confident that the Thai couldn't hurt him. I think he was in a tip-top condition so was Fahsan. Both of the last left uppercut was perfectly executed and as some posters said was a good antidote for the counter-punching JMM who likes to duck when throwing his right.
I was glad to see a heavily conditioned and a more complete fighter-boxer in Manny last night. Congratulations to him on his win last night. I also give props to Fahsan for giving everything he had including getting up from the 3 earlier KD's.
That's right Pare Fashan was no push over . . . he just can't match Pac's foot speed. hands speed and power. . . he was totally outclassed. But any fighter who is not in the level of MAB, JMM or Morales will look exactly the same against Pac. Pac did that to MAB when they met before reason why a lot of talks about MAB being a washed out fighter . . . but did you see MAB perform against Eric? Pac's dominance inside that ring is simply awesome. Now let's see how JMM will react to a 100% Pac.

Let's get it ON!
Fahsan was no push over man. Prior to the Pac fight he had NEVER been KOd. But I guess you meet your match one way or the other

Freddie was right on the target that what matters most in a boxing match is the boxer's mental state (assuming everything is equal e.g. boxing abilities, physical attributes, etc). MAB defeated Erik because he was the hungrier and the one who wanted to win more. Pac won against MAB not only because he was the hungrier fighter between the two but because he totally outclassed the man. He wasn't prepared for what Pacman would bring that night and it cost him the fight. I also believe that style makes fight and Pac has MAB's number. Even a compubox fight simulation considered Manny to win more than 80% of all future matches.
