    Will Manny Pacquaio ever recover from his Floyd loss?

    Or did Floyd effectively end his career May 2nd? Losing to your hated rival in dominating fashion all while knowing you will never get to avenge the loss must be tough on the psyche.

    Sounds more like when Marquez knocked him clean out a few years earlier.

    Questionable whether he ever recovered fully from that.

      If he can come back from the worst type of loss possible, which he did, then he will overcome this loss easily.

          Analysis of the fight in these 5 videos (around 1h 20 minutes). Enjoy.

            Either you think he hasn't recovered from the Marquez KO yet or you think he did recover from that and that as a result will have no problem recovering from this.

              He didnt know what happened one minute he thinks he is winning then boom all over , mentally its not like getting controlled for 12 rounds , its similar to Hatton where he says getting beat by Floyd over rounds was worse than getting stopped by Manny , it solely depends on the fighter and how he looks at things .

              Manny is just about done no matter , I will be suprised if he fights a real WW other than Khan who he knows well and who has a weak chin and not a lot of power , Thurman Brook Manny will avoid like the plague .

                Maybe.

                But there's only so many times a guy can bounce back.

                He did extremely well to bounce back from the KO loss to dominate Rios, Bradley and Algeri. I'll be honest, I didn't expect him to.

                But now he's took the L to Mayweather, a fight that meant so much and had so much history behind it and to it. So much riding on it and losing it in convincing fashion it can mess a guy up mentally.

                We will have to wait and see.

                  Recover from what? Having to chase Floyd around the ring for 12 rounds,making millions upon millions of dollars,and leaving the ring without a scratch on him? If anything you should be asking if he ever recovered from getting knockout out cold by marquez,which I don't think he did,and I'm one of the biggest Pacquiao fans here.

                    Marquez nearly killed him and he recovered.



                    I'm sure Manny is going to be fine.
