    The end of an era?

    Will boxing ever be the same after Marquez knocked out Pacquiao?

    I hope this is the end of the hysteria surrounding Pacquiao and his legions of rabid followers.

    the fashion of the KO will always be remembered despite mannys acclompishments, we'll always bring that up, pacfans are most to blame for this than Manny himself actually, they go alil overboard with the worshipping and now must pay..

        Whoever it is, let's just hope his fan base isn't nearly as irrational or delusional as Pacquiao's.

          Or Floyd's. His fanbase is equally if not more irrational and delusional. Legions of ****** youth praising a woman beater.

            I agree that Floyd's fanbase is deluded and irrational. But I don't think the world has seen anything like the worship Pacquiao received.

              I think for the most part..........yeah.

              Except tonight's main event showed that 2 GREAT prizefighters completed their 4 fight war and they'll be remembered in different ways:

              Beccause of the sheer culture contrast.

              But comparing those two to the future???????

              Keith 1 time Thurman would put both into a coma in the early rounds.

                  KOed by an older fighter with more fights and tear. A 40 year old. Manny's stock goes down definitely. Now will they listen to us and recognize Mayweather has always been the best fighter of this decade?

                  Manny Pacquiao had 4 chances to produce one convincing win over Marquez. The best he could get was an UD which wasn't really a UD. Mayweather had 1 chance and shut Marquez out for 12 rounds dropping him, at the same weight Paccquiao got KTFO by an older version of Marquez.

                  This is KARMA, pacquiao fans and boxing media. Screwed Floyd of being the universal p4p fighter because he retired one year? Now good luck trying to prove the best fighter of the decade gets caught by 2 KO punches leading with his head. Good luck trying to lie to the world now. Try it.

                    I think so.

                    Manny should just retire. He came out in a blaze of glory tonight and proved that he deserved his place among the greatest. It's all downhill from here with his age + brutal ko

                    The fact that he got caught by something that he would have just walked off in his prime against someone not known for his power shows that age and his wars are finally catching up to him.

                    All the Pac haters will miss him when he's gone. We won't get another Manny Pacquiao.
