    Funny how broke ass.es wonder where a multi millionaires money went...smh...the hate this man receives is beyond belief. Fail to mention is that the faded shot Manny we saw last night is still good enough to beat 60% of the welters out there

      I don't think Manny is back at all. In fact when a fighter whose near 40 says he feels like he's 28-29 again means they really are in denial. I wish he would stop here and can say he went out with a ****, a win a KO which he hasn't had in 9 years. Unfortunately, with a win means mentally you think you can still hang in there. He'll most likely chase one more huge opportunity with a young cat and when he finally gets dominated or beaten up, he'll realize he is done.

      Don't act surprise, Manny isn't the first fighter whose acted this way. It's a repeated story in boxing over and over and over and...

        60% isn't good enough bro.

          This is not a hate thread but if you watched the fight and actually think this man is even close to what he was then you are delusional...ITS OVER!!!!! I pray he made the money he needed and walks off into the sunset or he will end up another sad tale in the sport of boxing
          the reality is Pacquiao paid for Mathysse's fight money. do you expect that Mathysse will go out guns blazing and try to **** the person who paid for his purse?

          I am a Pac fan and he's just milking it now a days. can't blame him doe.

            hahahaha! that'd be like winning the lottery.

                  A couple things...i'm gonna be fair here and give my honest assessment of current Pacquiao.

                  Okay, i'm not a Pac fan at all, and Roy is my fave boxer of all time, but I don't think Tito and Matthysse are similar in the level of fighter they were at the time.

                  Tito Trinidad had 3 years off from boxing and had never had a fight above 160. The fight happened at 175lbs.

                  It's not close. At Least Matthysse had 2 fights at WW, 1 against a decent opponent Emmanuel Taylor, who Matthysse managed to KO, for Taylor's first KO loss. The important thing here is that Matthysse, although a paper champ, was active and was rated top 10 by The Ring and alphabet titles.

                  Lastly, if Pacquiao can feast on the Matthysse's, Vargas', Khan's and Danny Garcia's, I say go for it. That would be a lot better than what Roy was fighting, like Omar Sheika, Jeff Lacy, Anthony Hanshaw. It's not even close. If this is the best that a 39 year old Pac can do, that's not bad at all. Beating up on the lower top 10 WW's at 39 years old? Not bad. I'd say get that revenge on Horn in Vegas or Manila, then go after Khan or Garcia and end your career like that. All winnable fights. I'm gonna be completely honest, I thought he would UD Matthysse, I didn't think he had it in him to KD him twice and TKO him.

                    good idea, i hope it happens

                      You're probably right. This was likely Pacquiao's swan song. Not sure it gets much better than this unless he fights the top echelon fighters.
