    I could he wrong but I want put words on her mouth. But maybe she can also be talking about the speed chaos and brutality that manny use to have. Even if he dodnt get the knock out he beat the living **** out of guys at a blinding speed
    Kobe Bryant is the same age as Manny. Why hasn't he been as fast since 2007?

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?

      I see Pac as a great fighter who has proven me wrong many times.

      You people are dumb. So what of he's not knocking them out, it's his damn 7th division.

        Nothing really changed he is a great fighter, he is getting older less athletic but he still has enough in the tank to handle someone who is very good.

          I'm black too. I don't know what that has anything to do with Pac's punching power though. lol Dafuq that has anything to do with anything? "Hi, I'm Chinese. I'm a Yao Ming supporter. Is Dwyane Wade shot? I asked my grandma, she says yes. She's also Chinese."

            You tell her i said that! You tell her!
            I talk to my mom at lunch just now. I asked her to clarify what she meant. She said when manny first came up. Guys feared Manny and never stood still and he caught them of guard or with his speed. She said even though manny has gotten older. She doesn't get why while guys like the black guy (Bradley) and little bit ass Marquez are now standing in front of manny a lil more and punches that at least knocked guys down or severely hurt them. Are not as powerful. She feels at this age manny is most likely suffering from back,hand or wrist problems. Rust me chump my mom knows boxing.

              Well the second Bradley fight has confirmed one thing for certain. Although Pac critics always make excuses to try deny Pac, Pac has once again shown just how good he actually is. To come back from a ko, and beat a young lion p4p no3 at this stage of his career is what legends are made of. And he was already a legend.

              He has shown himself a complete warrior. He has shown things his peers who are considered his equal haven't shown. Ward and Floyd have yet to show they have the strength of character to come back from a devastating loss.
              So in that sense Pac is more proven.

                Here's how I know your mom doesn't know Boxing.

                The last time Pac had legitimate KO power he was fighting at 140 and below.

                He hasn't KO'd anybody since moving to 147. It's not that Pacquaio is shot or on a rapid decline. Pac hasn't KO'd anybody because he's been fighting guys bigger than him and he doesn't have one punch KO power at WW and above.

                It's that fcking simple and anyone who knows a damn thing about boxing should know that power and especially speed doesn't carry over as you move up in weight.
