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

War Lucas!

yeah right lol

ALL I CAN SAY is that all the articles that I have read a week before the fight from almost all MEDIA OUTLETS seems to predict the demise of pacquiao. All the negative stuff..again Pacquiao proved the wrong.

Two or three fights remaining, as Timmy said Mannys b or c games is far greater than someones A game. Haters will always throw words at manny. Bring on khan or bromer next for november

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.

O 100% their is no proof,their prob will never be, but my personal opinion was that something just didn't feel right after a min or 2 into the fight.
That's not excusing Matthysse either. He was a disgrace, he was as jittery as FCK since the first punch and put up no effort at all.

It dose open up fights, I can see him maybe beating thurman, but spence/Crawford and the top p4p guys ATM would make PAC look foolish.imo

WTF! He's back! Yahoo! He was in good shape! Loma or Crawford next? If Pacman came in better shape than tonight, he can make it very interesting with the young ones!

[OCPancho]

Speed kills, respect to Matthysse for giving us great fights but he was shot since after that brutal Provodnikov war!

Still to this day i don't understand why Lucas went and hired Joel Diaz to be his coach, He's very overrated and sounds like he never instructed Lucas to go downstairs to attempt to stop Pac from moving!

Cong**** Pacquiao, hope he retires or fights Crawford, a Loma is IMO bad for Loma!

Mathysse was gun shy after the first round . All he did was cover up after that .
It's tough when you see openings and you can't pull the trigger anymore.

I share your sentiment Thurman vs pacquiao but it depends on him if he will take that big boy spence or crawford.

[True That]

His name should now be

Lucas Quitthysse

[Sosay]

Can we all finally agree. Matthysse is trash but exciting. Pac looked good. I hope he fights Khan. Id pay to see Pac ko another overated fighter.

[Butch.McRae]

1. Lucas is shot to sh**t
2. He's also a very overrated fighter generally.
3. Pac looked okay.
4. As expected, people here acting like this is some solid win lol clearly missed Matthysse over the last few fights
5. This likely sets up the Loma fight. 6. I guess Bob will win in the end again.

That's boxing for you.

Also, great stuff from Teofimo and Prograis

Overall great Saturday for boxing.
