    Either way, Pacquaio without his speed is a sitting duck. Horn was advancing/imposing on him fairly easily. Back in the day he would have eaten 4 punches for even trying.
    Maybe Pac just couldnt do it to Horn ,Pacman was throwing but he had no accuracy to counter Horn with big shots ,Pacman on the backfoot is bad idea.

      Horn troubled Pacquaio. Landed some really good solid punches especially the right. Defended well aswell.

      Was a back and forth fight. I think in the 9th Pacquaio knew he was behind and tried to finish him but when he didn't he was out of gass.

      Great fight.
      The 9th was the only round Pac fought like he did in his prime. I thought he looked very rusty throughout and threw a lot of wide swings that missed by miles. Horn was strong and aggressive but there were loads of opportunities for Manny to nail him in every round. But Manny just wasn't sharp enough. And he wasn't really interested in a dog fight.

        I think even in that round he was just loading up massive single punches. Not his usual machine gun esque 10 punch combinations we saw in his better days.

        But I agree that was the only round he showed killer instinct and I think it's because he knows he was behind or thought he was behind atleast.

        Pacquaio despite being past it has been able to compete and win at the best level but yesterday he really showed big decline. He just wasn't pulling the trigger.

            Pacquaio-Horn was close. Can't argue with either man winning or a draw.

            Same for Mayweather-Maidana 1.
            Maidana won the first 5 rounds Floyd won the rest, horny won 3 rounds the whole fight.. he did win the last doe

                Pac still had his speed.. it's just Horn was a lot bigger than him, physically stronger.. and he'd press forward despite getting hit
