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

Funny you say that now.......conveniently after the fight. Nvm everyone saying that this will likely be Manny's last fight losing by ko. And I think it's funny how everyone dumps on LM now because he quit vs. Postol who went on to be Crawfords biggest win so far. The dude had a broken eye socket and was well in that fight and every other fight he has ever been in.....and Manny beat him every round and knocked him out clean at 39. Give him his atg props. Manny is a living legend and every title fight win just extends that legend.

Of course Manny is a legend but that doesn't change the fact that Matthysse looked totally shot. I think Manny should stay away from the top welterweights if he knows what's good for him.

If Matthyse won, Pacquiao is washed. If Pacquiao won, Matthyse is washed.

And I've seen alot of people in this forum saying Matthyse is gunna KO Pac and retire him for good. SMH.

Yes. Manny Pacquiao is my favorite fighter of my life time. He could fight at 71 and be wheeled out to the goddamn ring in a wheelchair coming off 20 straight KO losses and I'd still watch and be hyped for the fight.

This had me laughing, and my girl in the other room was like 'what the hell'.

LM didn't look shot to me at all. Shot is when you can't pull the trigger. Clearly he had no problems with pulling the trigger. He just couldn't get out of the way of Mannys shots and his gameplan went out the window early because he got hit hard with counters starting in rd. 1. Manny showed that he's not done yet. Simple as that.

Yup......but all of the sudden, now he's shot....lol

I thought that one way or another this was going to be Pacquiao's last fight but obviously he'll likely have at least one more now, although against who I'm not sure.

On the other hand, surely Matthysse is finished now. It seems like the Provodnikov fight was the downward turning point for his career despite the fact he won because he hasn't been the same since.

Pacquiao 2.0




Still fast for an OLD TIMER

[bngsdad]

Was Freddie not being there a factor?

Maybe Manny's fight never faded and Freddie's fight plan was always wrong?

imagine how easily this pac beats floyd.

Even easier than the first time

Pac man needs to push for Floyd (Never happen) but Floyd took Pac at just the right time but Manny is still decent. Mayweather is fighting carnival fights(McGregor)

If they fought this October, Manny stomps Floyd.

Matthyse was straight trash though. Made me a good amount of.money. I don't know why anyone thought Lucas has any shot at Manny. Dudes a scrub.

At this point.

Floyd and Manny is still the biggest money fight in PPV. They are still the biggest fan base in boxing. Easily can reach 2million PPV buys if a rematch comes about. Especially 2 vets closing the show one last time.

But we all know Floyd would rather keep that fluke win than fight a healthy Pac with 2 arms. Tells you whose ***** between the two, and the other calls himself Money and ducking a huge paycheck for a rematch. Says it all right there.

Right deltoid, red mark. Shows Pac was truly 50% of his true self






Pac's explanation.


@ 2:57:" I was disappointing with myself (throwing barrages on Floyd on the 4th round) because he was leaning on the ropes and I was attacking him, starting my pressure to him, but when I threw my hand I feel like I cut my hands. I feel like I didn't have my right hand. "

After a Flurry he backed off, this is when he tore it.







@ 1:33 -1:42 Pac Flurries and strangely stops the onslaught. He could have finished Floyd right there.
