Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Knocks Matthysse Out in Seventh For WBA Belt

[Removed Now]

C'mon now, it's not fair to rain on Manny's parade. He went in there and took care of business. Also, Manny holding a major welterweight title again is good for boxing. It opens up a lot of potential and exciting match ups for him. Besides, there is no proof that he juiced for this fight anyhow. That's just more unproven allegations.

See this is boxings main problem. Manny is holding a fake major belt , he might as well carry the IBO belt. The WBA is greedy and to top it all off they are giving khan the mandatory smdh.

Manny did look great for his age, but as others have mentioned something was fishy about this fight. Matthyse wasn't just cagey, he was afraid or unwilling to throw any shots with real power behind them, noticed that off the bat when he landed solid shots on Manny but with the force of a baby deer. Then when he took a knee after Pacquiao hit him lightly on the temple I knew it was a fix. Everything about this fight screams fix.

You sound more of a hater, son! You better watch some opera or a Jimmy Kimmel live!

Not hating at all haha just giving my opinion.

I don't think PAC would be able to hang with the young lions of today

Dela Hoya already thought Lucas would end up losing to Pac. And he's right. Let's see if he can convince whining Marquez to face Pac for the 5th time.

Oscar has hurt Lucas's career by saying its a sink or swim fight, he has figuratively thrown Lucas under the bus.

I believe Khan is the mandatory, it has nothing to do with me. Talk to the WBA.

Jessie Vargas, Jamal James, Jose Benavidez, and Egis Kavaliauskas are all ahead of Khan, but for someone of Manny's stature, he could fight Khan if he wanted.

blame arum right? wait bob is not involve so who's the bad guy here?

[wrecksracer]

Lol at everybody saying this fight was fishy or Manny must be juicing. Matthysse is a come forward puncher who can't cut the ring off. Made to order. Anyone thinking Lucas was going to win must not have seen his last couple of fights. He was done. Cashing out. Did anyone seriously think this was going to end any other way?

Holy carp. I eat my words. Pac-man lives

[Manic Shot]

The haters who said Matthysse will KO Manny slept early and nowhere to be found.

[robbyheartbaby]

My prediction was wrong but Lucas looked like shyte and Manny has definitely lost a step. Still props to Manny for putting his own promotion together and being in control of his own career. Well done Manny I'm sure the world is applauding your efforts.

Lucas is a "built" South American hyped fighter!
He has failed when he steps up and even an older world class fighter makes a "club fighter" quit!

The word "hype" is dragged around here so much but I doubt anyone knows the meaning. It's like "bum" people here think it's about skills or talent.
Lucas was a "bum" tonite, he quit!
