Why does it seem like Pacquiao became irrelevant overnight?

[BLASTER1]

He should have immediately rematched the Horn.
Because he didnt alot of his fans lost respect for him. Imo.
After this next fight depending if he gets a good knock out of Matthyse then he might slip back into relevancy again until he looses to Loma.

Lmfao your one to talk

Who do I nuthug?

So you think drug addicts should be killed and gays are worse than animals?

In short............YES!

[NoConcoms]

Once random blood test became the norm, Pac declined drastically.


ZERO STOPPAGES since PED accusations became public in 2010.


People lost respect for Manny.

Well yeah, because it became pretty obvious what was going on. Gotta' give him credit though: He never failed a drug test. He's a cheater, but a smart cheater.

Maybe y'all on the forums need to understand something, boxing to him is a 2nd job now, I actually follow politics both domestically and internationally, he is already being set up to run when Duterte's term is up...

Plenty of video's on youtube showing him in Session in the Philippine Senate.

He seems perfectly content with his life now and I'm not surprised at all considering he is pretty much set for life.

He still murdering drug users (even though Manny - himself- admitted to using marijuana and crystal meth as a teenager) and giving Dutertes son a pass for smuggling in $200+ million worth of methamphetamines????

Man, what a guy.

Really Larry? Pacquiao's popularity has been on the decline for almost a decade. After he got KO'd by Marquez, it dropped sharply..... All the Hmong dudes I knew stopped having fight parties when Pac fought after that.

No one watched those fights between Marquez IV and Mayweather. With the Mayweather fight, everyone was interested because if Manny pulled it off, he would in a lot of way make up for letting the fans down time and time again over the years.

He didn't, and his fans left for good.

Age and his contract with Too Rank must be coming to an end.

Definitely not overnight. After the Mayweather fight, there was a huge drop off in interest. I like the guy and over the past couple years have seen myself as sometimes the only person to bump a thread about a Pac fight.
His fans moved on to GG and Kova, then moved over to Loma, etc.

well i didn't i just don't think he should be fighting anymore and should accept his glory days are gone.
Even though i can see him ****ing out mattyssee..i also see him gettting slaughtered by crawford.
He has earned his place in history now

[The plunger man]

Threads made on him get almost no replies,news on him doesnt really get responded to at all..It is like he went from being one of the faces of boxing to yesterdays trash

Pop out into the street and ask some random joe do you know who is manny pacquaio ?
And then go back into the street and ask them do you know who deontay wilder is ?
Write back to me when you have the results in lol
