Why isn't anyone claiming Pacquiao was injured?

    I never bought the injury story in the first place.
    Thank you, his output has been falling for years now

        Exactly. And to be fair, he's always thrown less against good defensive fighters. He was able to throw so much against Rios because he just stands there. Algieri was in over his head and couldn't hurt Pac so he was able to throw a lot more.

          Against bradley his punches were full powered as you saw with the knockdowns and bradley not knowing what day it was and didnt know much about the fight similar to SSMM against Pac.

          Pac only threw half power shots at Floyd, otherwise Floyd would have hit the canvas when Pac landed.

            Kinda hard to hit bradley, he was in constant motion and very elusive, jmm had difficulty hitting him as well, bradley can be very elusive when he wants, wished he threw more mustard on his punches instead of flicking jabs.

              first of all, I have to point out the obvious; fl0mos keep bringing up the fight any way they can and then they wonder why people call for a rematch...if you act like things are unsettled then people will naturally want a definitive end.

              As for his punch output, Pacquiao doesn't throw punches in volume since Marquez 4. That's your answer. Also the opponent is a factor and Pacquiao's age.

              The only thing different about this fight and the May fight, was his energy, he looked better prepared. If you don't want to believe the shoulder excuse that's fine, but what elite fighter misses a week in sparring while preparing for Floyd Mayweather and only does heavy bag work like once or twice a week? I say shame on Team Pacquiao for thinking he's good enough to beat Floyd coming off a sporadic camp. Floyd deserved to win, because he trained like a professional.

                Bradley is easier to hit and has a weaker chin. Pacquiao still only threw 10 more punches, he must have been injured.

                  Floyd's counter punching shut PAC down. How many KO's does Bradley have??

                  Roughly the same percentage as Floyd now.

                      Lol whut? Bradley eats the shots Pacquiao wobbled Mayweather with for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

                      Mayweather would be out cold if Pacquiao landed a flush overhand on him.
