Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Not Surprised That Bradley Defeated Marquez

[hitking]

People need to cut out the whole he can't be the same after being knocked out like that..he ain't the first boxer to be put to sleep and he won't be the last...in fact i'll say his overall damage from the Marquez fight was considerably less than the damage Bradley took at the hands of Ruslan. What I am concerned about is his confidence, I think the biggest factor that dictates his future success is all around confidence, if he gets gunshy he might as well retire.

I agree about needing to see where Pac's confidence is. Maybe its only me. But, IMO over his last three or so fight appears to have started feeling himself a bit. I don't think he took the third fight with JMM seriously at all. Then you had the foolishnss the night of the Bradley fight where he refused to to fight until after the basketbal game was over. So the KO against JMM could do one of two things. It could either light a fire under Pac. Or it could shatter his confidence that he can no longer BS his way through training asnd still be great.

Floyd will never fight Pacman! Pacman kept beating on guys so stop with this Pac needs to beat this many guys to entice Floyd, if Floyd wanted the fight he would have made the fight already.

Hectari, have you SEEN floyd's vicious deadly scintillating counter jab??

it'd put even a prime sugar ray robinson to sleep.

Yeah that was kind of odd.

Then in the fight against Tim, Manny didn't really try that hard. He never really opened up, and although he clearly won probably 8 rounds... because he wasn't as aggressive as normal he left the decision up to the judges.

Of course, its all Floyd's fault. Nevermind that 100% of the boxing community is fully aware that GBP and Top Rank aren't gonna work together. And Pac ultimately killed any possibility of the fight happening by resigning with Arum. None of that matters. Its all on Floyd.

First of all, I don't feel that Pac "clearly won 8rds." I thought he won thefight. But there were several close rounds.

As for Pac's "lack of aggression", Timmy was doing lil sudle things that kept Pac from just swarming him. And he also made Pac miss a lot, and at times countered him effectively. And throughout his career, when he's countered effectively, Pac's punch output goes down. At times drmatically.

you do understand that when you get knocked unconscience.the oxygen is cut off from your brain? pacquiao has some dead cells now other than the ones we get as we age. bradley took a beating in the provod fight and sustain some hard shots in the marquez fight. he looked fine to me. but we will see how pacquiao responds to a direct chin shot. then we'll no whose damaged goods.

not true, when you get knocked out, your brain stem is still operational. The brain stem regulates heart and respiration rhythm which means the heart still beats, the lungs still inhale air, thus delivering blood and oxygen to every part of the body.

Brain cell damage from concussion mainly arise from ion imbalance due to ligand mediated channels that are forced open when they are supposed to being closed. This causes excitation and a greater glucose demand on the cell, all the while blood glucose levels drop. But this kind of damage is inflicted on nearly every pro fighter, not just pacquaio

The only thing he should be surprised about is how he won the other two fights.
