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

Nice win by Pacquaio but we have to be honest that this was like a nothing fight, and he wouldn't beat Spence, Crawford or Thurman. He might be more competitive against Lomachenko at 140lbs although I don't see him winning that fight either. A true legend, maybe time to go out on a win and a bit of a high.

[Manic Shot]

Yup, every day that goes by. The truth shows who truly is the best.

Floyd Jr: Manny, you're my hero!
Manny: Ok, stop hugging me.

not gonna lie though, That knockdown did look suspect when Lucas just took a knee

When Lucas takes a knee and Coach Joel Diaz asking for autograph.

Matthyse was banking on his power..especially his right hand. Coach Diaz probably was planning to copy Marquez bluprint which was to KO Pac. Only that Pac gave Marquez a broken nose before that happened. Matthyse was game all night, but his pain tolerance has obviously decreased over the years with how much wars he's been in. They most likely expected Pacquiao to bounce around like a jack rabbit. Pac stayed flat footed and was using more power punches. He was obviously there to get a KO win. Amazing fight. Make Khan-Pac or Loma-Pac happen this winter!

[Steven Mccowan]

Very good final performance by pac. Amazing fighter and one of the most exciting fighters ever

[LacedUp]

wow, you lucky dog. You where in Malaysia?

Yup i live here now. Awesome fight!

Yeah, that was pure instinct. The more he doesn't think and go with instinct the more deadly he seems to be. He got pissed and threw that one two that floored Lucas.

That left uppercut is as deadly as his straight left. It had venom. Damn scary punch.

Yea...he was pissed after the low blow. He does get mad in spots.

After the headbutts in the Horn fight.. he got mad too which resulted to nearly finishing Horn in the 9th.. just had nothing left.

[Removed Now]

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



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.

Didnt khan make a statement he was going too force a fight ? Seems like money involved.

Last time Pacquiao fought someone his size, ***** was starting his first term as president. Matthysse is naturally 15 to 25 pounds smaller than Jeff Horn. THAT is the reason Horn took Pacquiao's shots but Matthysse couldn't. That and Matthysse's perpetually injured right eye that also cost Matthysse the DSG and Postol fights. That's the reason Matthysse quit in the end.

What about rios, or Bradley, or Marquez, or vargas, or algieri? All of those guys fought pac at 147 and were fighting at lower weights when pac was already at 147 for yrs.
