I have only seen 2 fighters peak then decline soo fast

[Cinci Champ]

think its obvious that when everyone started to call out manny for being on something he stopped using and since he has not even been close to the same.

What Do Roy and Manny Have in Common?

We all know they both suffered brutal knock outs. Another thing we need to keep in mind is they both had other interests outside of boxing. Boxing is a sport where one must be 100 percent dedicated. Both also have been fighting professionally for a long time. If one wants to think of peaking and declining fast, let us not forget Jermain Taylor and Jeff Lacy.

His "rapid decline" has been massively overstated. He CLEARLY beat Bradley, maybe not as clearly as the ridiculously biased HBO commentary would have one believe but clearly nonetheless. And he was well on his way to whipping JMM's ass before he got overly aggressive and got KO'd for the ages. Hey, no excuses -- his fault there.

But before that final second of round 6 MP was inches away from stopping JMM. Marquez was hanging on for dear life at that point.

I agree with what you say here 100%.

Pacman didn't decline fast. He was actually dominating the fight outside of the 1st kd, until he was relieved of his consciousness.

Manny isn't even a full time boxer. People forget he is a congressmen. Like Floyd said, boxing is so hard, you need 100 per cent dedication.

agreed...pacquiao stopped being a full time boxer once he got into politics which was back in 2009/2010...and on top of that he added all that religious sermon and bible reading stuff in 2011 and now 2012. pac should have a W against bradley though, but in that fight he didn't seem like the old pacquiao..the fire just wasn't there. he did look like the old pac a bit in the 4th marquez fight.
