Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Not Surprised That Bradley Defeated Marquez

[hitking]

U think Our Hero, will believe that, Pacaman has
Slowed Down Enough to RISK Fighting Him???

The last time I saw Pacquaio he didn't appear to have slown down. He appeared to have come to a complete stop, outside of that lil twitching he was doing laying there.

Well then I demand a Pacroid vs Bradley rematch!

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.

It is the psychological impact it has- ah I see the last part of your post. I agree.

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.

he did try hard. one dimensional

I completely agree with this.

It's been nearly a year since Pacquiao was KO'd. He's had plenty of time to rest and recover. I think he'll show up to the Rios fight very sharp.

I'm glad to hear Manny is fully focused on this fight instead of looking ahead. It's always a bad sign when a fighter with a match lined up starts talking about who he will be fighting next. I'll always remember Victor Ortiz sleeping on Josecito Lopez because he was so focused on fighting Canelo Alvarez afterward.

Pac getting KO'd by a PED version of Marquez is the perfect excuse for Floyd never fight Pacquiao. Plain and simple.

The slim chance the Floyd-Pac fight ever happens, it will just be another payday for two soon to be retired future hall of famers. The winner wouldn't really matter. It will be nothing like it could've been back in 2009-2010. Floyd would really have to need the payday to risk his "0" at this point.

People need to get the "Pac will not be the same" theory. He was knocked out cold early in his career as well. Roberto Duran got knocked cold face first vs Tommy Hearns and went on to a very successful career after that including beating the man who beat Hearns twice in Iran Barkley.

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.

how does oxygen get cut off to your brain? You do realize fighters still breath when they're knocked unconscious...right?

Only a dumb Mexican fan would accuse Pacquiao and NOT Marquez of PEDs. Stubborn.

Both are suspect. The only difference is the evidence against JMM is more compelling than all the other fighters in the sport. This isn't new knowledge, yet too many stubborn Mexican fans and Pac haters refuse to admit it.

Marquez deserved to lose against Bradley on principle alone. He made himself look even worse by claiming he now has "6 robberies" on his record.

Makes me wish for the days of true Mexican heroes like Barrera, Morales and Chavez Sr.
