As well as suspecting that Pac threw the fight (he owes like 70mill in taxes or some ish, plus saying "thank you" at the weigh in) due to how he seemed to just want to collect his cheque and fck off from the so-called "fight of the century" it was clear Pac is shopworn.
Pac of old assuming he would have been as frustrated would have tried to walk through Mayweather to land, i.e. take one to give one, he didn't because he experienced a life threatening KO. He was tentative against pillow fisted Bradley.
Pacquiao walked through Miguel Cotto, Hatton and Mosley when he got frustrated, this victory is highly tainted because fighters are never the same from a KO like that, and it was clear against Bradley.
When Pac lead with the left (another suggestion Roach should have read but I don't have his email) he had success, he even buckled Floyd, he hurt Floyd more than Floyd hurt him.
The 4th round showed glimpses of what the fight would have been more like in 2010, a more relentless, lighter, quicker, better stamina Pac who was willing to take one to give one.
Thing is, Pac is no longer willing to take one to give won, which was his best hope
