His new style is due to age (less cardio) and being smarter, it will extend his career.
Manny hasn't been the same blood and guts warrior since Margarito

I prefer this new Manny
He outboxes the other guy, but we all know that there's a whole another level that Manny can turn into if the fight turns in a brawlComment

There is nothing new about this Pacquiao, it's nothing I haven't seen before. He fought with more caution against Marquez going into their 3rd fight and it got him outboxed. It may work against the level of opposition he is facing right now but he'd have to bring back his old aggressiveness if he wants to beat the likes of Marquez or Mayweather.Comment

Been saying this as well but sadly that doesn't want to get acknowledged because of Marquez hooking up with Heredia. That's the slowest Marquez has ever looked.Comment

THIS^^^ Marg. is gonna make u earn a win over him....Mosley damn near had to kill him to beat him...and he still was getting up...the corner had to save him from himselfComment

the old pac would have made algieri jump over the top of the ropes and run into the locker room crying for his moms
pac broke margaritos face literally, almost blinded him nd retired him.
pac felt remorse nd doesnt wna do that to anybody. this is their job, to feed their families. manny doesnt wanna kill anyone. mannys actually kind hearted, which makes him being such a beast in the ring such an anamoleComment

Exactly he's 36 years old which is considered old in boxing years. He can't be that aggressive guy who constantly attacks for 12 rounds anymore.He's getting older now, which means he has to fight in patches. It's going to be more difficult for him to KO some through accumulation because he can't be relentless any more.
That being said, he could have taken Algeiri out if he kicked up a gear but I can understand why he didn't. It's pretty easy for boxing fans to scream ''Go for the KO,'' but Pacquiao would have seen that the guy wasn't fit to lace his boots. To that end, I can understand why he'd feel cruel trying to beat him unconscious.Comment
