He was robbed against Horn, a fight that should have been scored 8-4 or 7-5 at the most to Pac. His Last Three Victories should be HORN, VARGAS and BRADLEY. That's better then any other Welterweight out there!
Who is a better Welterweight?
Thurman? Come On!
Garcia? No way!
Porter? Haha.
Errol Spence Jr? He would be toughest test but is very slow compared to Manny and doesn't have the movement needed to stay in striking zone with Manny.
Recent Footage of Manny training with Buboy shows a Manny back to his best, enjoying training and looking relaxed and as fast as ever.
This is the Old Manny that we used to Love to watch knocking out guys. The Truth is, he went stale with Roach and needed a change.

These people who mention Crawford, Spence, Thurman, Garcia and Porter would beat him and i ask "BASED ON WHAT"?
Is Manny on the decline...of cause he isn't the same guy he was 10 years ago but i honestly have never seen any thing from Thurman, Crawford, Garcia or Porter that would make me think they'd have what it takes to beat him FAIRLY...not some BS ROBBERY.
Spence Jr would be the closest to beating him but lets see what Spence does against Thurman, Crawford and Garcia first...beating Kell Brook just doesn't cut it!
Same, I haven't seen that special it factor that I still see in Pacquiao. He is a unique talent.
Yep, we have to see. Pacquiao's style is a real problem. Only way you get to him is WITHSTANDING a beating and mauling him with size like Margarito / Horn did and still he manages to win.

"We will take it in the future, give me one warm-up fight and a fight right after that and then we can talk.
"It will be a tough match-up as Crawford can move for 12 rounds and is a pretty good puncher. He hits hard and emulates Floyd Mayweather Jr quite a bit in his style - he's like a younger version."

"It's a tough fight," the many-time Trainer of the Year acknowledged in an interview with Fight Hub TV. "But it is one that we have to say yes to, if that's the only thing out there."
"Crawford showed that he can move for twelve rounds, he can run for twelve rounds".

Lets all agree that Manny was robbed against Horn.
That would mean Manny's last three victories are:
HORN, VARGAS and BRADLEY.
That's better then either SPENCE JR or CRAWFORD have actually done in their last 3 fights!
Horn was able to tag Manny pretty good. Sure he didn't win, but he as still hitting Manny pretty clean and easy. Even Vargas got good Right hands in. That's what you could base it off of
