Sore losers fortune and Freddie lol thought it be a picnic in the park people laughed when I said horn would make this a fight all the wankers on here writ him off and bagged him without even seeing him fight before it's hilarious yeh he is nothing special and Thurman and Spence probably beat him. But he is tough as nails and showed great heart, haters suk it up

Fortune and Roach keeping it real. I honestly think one thing is MOST clear, Pac shouldn't be fighting welterweights. I'm sorry, great run at welter, but Horn walked through those lefts like he was legitimately fighting a lightweight. All things considered, I actually think Pac looked good at times, still fast, explosive, solid stamina, still fought with heart, I can't imagine that Manny having strength issues over at 140. Not prime, but nothing about his performance screams retire. Just my opinion.

Really? He got lit up and punished over and over by a school teacher. A guy he would have brutally KOed just a couple years ago. The punishment he took was reason to retire. He got rocked maybe a dozen times by a guy who isn't a top 10 Welter. Pacquaio fights a real boxer with power and he is going out on a stretcher.

Just make the rematch in the PI's & more importantly PAY Horn what he deserves & Pacquiao gets his long awaited fight in front of his people. It's so fuggin easy... come on Arum.

Or retire... Dudes rich as chit already anyway.

duck spence, thurman and crawford like manny wants to and retire in peace.... what a joke

[bronx7]

When manny wasn't born again when he had a mean streak no church or politics he was a killer.

[bronx7]

Now with church politics no killer instinct less training he's getting by on talent but with age can't beat elite

Let's be honest with ourselves here doe. Manny was never gonna fight either one of those fighters with the exception of maybe an undisputed Crawford (later this year) because it's makes business sense FOR Arum/Top Rank. (In-house = easy negotiations)

A rematch is now Pacquiao's best option. (Besides retirement) Everything else is pushed to the side opponent wise.
