    Kovalev does what Manny doesn't: Avenge a dominant loss. A true warrior.

    I didn't see the fight as I'm into the subscription model yet. But it doesn't matter.

    Sergey Kovalev, twice now, has called for rematches so he can avenge his losses. I had him beating Ward 7-5 the first time, he clearly lost the second time, but at least he TRIED.

    Alvarez, he got sparked largely because he didn't show up in shape. Showed up in the rematch and got it done. He TRIED, and succeeded.

    This is the mark of a warrior. An aging warrior, but a warrior nonetheless.

    This is a guy people said was washed, done, needed to hang em up, Alvarez would spark him again, he drinks too much, Buddy McGirt would stop the fight and hug him "I love you too much baby", etc etc. None of that happened.

    I'm sorry. And I'll keep saying it. It's about respect. This is a GLADIATOR sport. True fans need to demand that these fighters show up and avenge their in-the-books losses, or at least TRY. Don't run. Don't duck. And it's a damn shame people are not holding Manny Pacquiao to the same standard that they hold other fighters.

    Manny Pacquiao is a straight up coward and his fans that make excuses about why he's ducking the Jeff Horn rematch are enablers to why he's lost so much respect in the mainstream.

      You can’t avenge that kind of loss with a points win! Just ask Miguel Cotto

        He TRIED to do it twice. The point is he TRIED. I don't expect wins, I expect effort.

        Chocolatito: He TRIED. He got his ass kicked both times, that's not the point. He TRIED.

        Maidana: He TRIED. Lost close the first time, lost wide the second time. That's not the point. He TRIED.

          He won the second fight. Just like Manny won the second fight against Bradley. He TRIED against Bradley. So there's no excuse to not try against Horn.

          Nobody asked for a third Bradley fight but Manny did it anyway. He TRIED.

              Bro, the dude lost UNANIMOUSLY. That's dominant.

              Only two other fighters have UNANIMOUSLY beaten Manny Pacquiao: Erik Morales and Floyd Mayweather. Two first ballot Hall of Famers.

                Pacquiao lost to morales and made up for that loss by stopping him in both rematches. Pacquiao "lost" to Bradley,and went on to beat him twice. He lost to mayweather and has been trying to get the rematch. He lost to Marquez,and tried getting a rematch,but Marquez was happy as hell to ride off into the sunset after getting the win. Pacquiao even tried to get the rematch with horn,but kangaroo Jack and his team thought that they where the Kings of the world,and blew Manny off. Now that horn got dismantled by Crawford and is looking for another payday,he's trying to lure Pacquiao in for another mma fight where the cards are already filled out on favor of foghorn. He can go *****ing kick rocks.
