Being from a black family we support a large contingent of black fighters and a few Latinos. Saturday night I was watching the fight with my mom. She asked isn't that Manny pacquaio fighting? I replied yes. She went on to say he don't look as fast or hit as hard as he use to. She did went on to say maybe it's true. Fighters lose it after getting knocked out referring to the Marquez fight. I pressed her for more details granted she's 51 a casual boxing fan who order marquee name ppv's. She told me that guy was knocking out every one a few years ago. Now he can't knock out anyone. If my mom can notice Manny having trouble getting the finish. I know you all have noticed too. Manny hasn't had a Ko honestly in a long time. His punch output has went down barely and in boxing power is the last to go. I don't get it. Is Manny now shot?
    No whites or asians? Lol

      I'm pretty sure this isn't a Floyd Mayweather thread? Now back to the topic on hand. Manny ran thru every one when he first reached welterweight. That's what made people know him. People like my mom and the other billion casual boxing fans. Now you take the same guy who jumped on the scene knocking guys out. Those same ppl would be left scratching their heads asking what happened? Your are a manny fan I assume so answer the question or go troll another thread.

                  Stop trolling. You wonder why guys like me. Have been members of boxing scene for 6,7 years. With only 80 post. You posters can never keep a thread respectful and on topic. This thread isn't to race bait or to assume anything. My mom brought up a valid point the reason Manny was so revered. By ppl like her. Bc he was like a little version of Mike Tyson. So a lot of those ppl who don't follow the sport. Wonder why he isn't the same.
