    Yes, Pac only received formal training when he was much older as a boxer. He was very lucky to have met Roach. And so are boxing fans: otherwise Manny would have remained a one-dimensional fighter and we wouldn't have seen what he was capable of. Props to Manny for reaching insane heights even though he started training late.



    it's the same punch

          40 fights before Pac chased greatness. How many GOATS have such a string of no hopers
          I know for a fact May doesn't.

            I always said Manny was no risk , how the fck is a guy with 7 loses in his prime going to beat Floyd, once they stopped him from using his Toradol Manny had a snowballs chance in hell, Manny is a bit of a paper tiger once its on even ground.

              Broner, Matthysse, Horn ( ), Vargas, Bradley* 3x ( ), Algieri, Rios ( ), Mosley, Margarito, Clottey......

              Yeah. Pac was all about taking risks !

              * Bradley was a good little warrior but clearly out of his league. Pac was safe from getting hurt.
