Doesn't have desire doesn't mean declining to me. Declining to me is slowing down, is not sharp anymore, gasses out early, etc. all those would fall in the declining catagory to me. Manny just needs some excitement to give him that hunger again and I believe Floyd is the one that can do it for him.
Pacquiaos on the decline, agree?

IMO the only thing that has declined with Pac is his killer instinct and the cooperation of his legs-- leg cramps in training and supposedly even during fights.
While those are pretty big issues I think a fight with Floyd will bring out the best in him, and that we'd see a near-prime version of Pac. (Then afterwards we'll probably hear the cramps excuse again lol)Comment

Yeah because he looked the same against Marquez as he did in 2008 and 2004, he's on the decline.
And the only people who thought he was gonna KO Mosley was Roach and the *******s. Nobody is knocking Mosley out, he's gonna retire without a KO loss, like Hopkins, and excluding a corner stoppage, Glen Johnson. Some guys just can't be knocked out no matter what, Mosley is one of them.
I say he just sucks but had great match making that finally backfired.Comment

Like any elite fighter, they get used to the good life and lose the hunger to compete like they did when they were coming up and looking to prove themselves. Manny fights at his best when he has a point to prove i.e. he wanted to show that he could destroy cotto coz everyone said cotto would destroy him, same with delahoya. Manny fought with no desire against Mosely until the dodgey KD call by the ref in round 10 that finally fired Manny back up to his old self.
The Marquez fight was a combination of JMM being very crafty and Pac's motivation not being there... I don't think Pac is on the decline physically (although there is some evidence his accuracy is not as good as it used to be) but mentally he's a congressman now, living it up with all the rich socialites in the Philippines.Comment

Your a ****** hater, you can't get to the top of the sport and "suck". Let's see if Floyd could destroy Cotto the way Manny did or bust up a much bigger Margarito... sure Floyd would win but in the most boring manner possible.Yeah because he looked the same against Marquez as he did in 2008 and 2004, he's on the decline.
