It’s the truth. Any REAL boxing fan who’s been watching boxing since at least the 90’s/2000’s will tell you the same. Put the bad judges and robberies aside, and Pacquiao realistically hasn’t lost a fight since 2012.
Jeff Horn-Robbery
Whether you’re a fan of Pcquiao or not, you know it was. Every single sports analyst said so. The illegal head butting and putting Manny in headlocks. Everybody seen the Aussie almost go down in the 9th, same round Crawford got the TKO. And Manny has Horn beat up worse. Plain robbery.
Mayweather-Much closer fight than media say it was. It was obvious the media was hyping Floyd. The commentators kept speaking him up. It was a draw or Mayweather win 7-5 at best.
But every fighter Floyd fought has “lost” to him. So this doesn’t indicate anything.
Doesn’t indicate any decline in skill or talent of Manny.
Never was Manny in any trouble, so little action it just doesn’t mean much.
Marquez KO-Manny’s first real loss since Morales in 05.
Many like to credit it to Marquez “timing” or “lucky punch”. The truth is, Manny became overly aggressive and started fighting out of anger.
He was robbed in his previous bout with Tim Bradley which was highly influential in decision to fight extra aggressively this fight. Had the Bradley fight not been judged wrong, PAC Marquez 4 could have played out like their 3rd fight.
My point is, that throughout these fights and so called “losses” never did they indicate Manny lost his talent. Or his skill. He’s still just as dominant as you seen against Thurman.
The only difference maker was the Marquez KO because after Manny became much more technical and now settles for the UD rather than acting on his previous killer instinct and going for the kill.
Guys, we just witnessed the great Manny Pacquiao, 40 years old and all, beat the **** out of undefeated 30 year old top dog in WW division Keith Thurman.
Let’s bask in this greatness and appreciate history.
That’s all I have for you folks.
