Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Psychologically, KO Will Haunt Pacquiao

[Gratide]

Pac does seems to have lost a step in the last few yrs , but he is a great fighter with alot of heart. He can quit if he wants to he will always be a hero to me . Hat's off to JMM he caught him with the perfect punch at the perfect time . Oscar I love him too but it's not his place to make such a statement , you expect that kind of mess from Fearweather ? my super fight would be mayweather vs Canelo , wilder vs tyson fury and Pac vs bradley all on the same card , I'd pay 70 bucks to see that !

After the ko. Expect to see a better Pacquiao in defense like the one who fought Oscar. I want the new Pacquiao to fight like that.

Pacman is a Fighter, he will comeback and fight again. He was doing good in that fight clearly inflicting damage to Marquez face before he was put to sleep!

A 5th Fight is still look good, but, only if both Fighters agree! Psychologically, it won’t affect Pacman, as he has shown his Faith in God after the fight.

Anyone who thinks it will not play on his mind is stupid
He will be very tentative with his attacks
Pacquiao is nearing the end and I doubt he would do any better in a 5th fight with Marquez

lmao.......no way to recover from that type of embarrassment.

Both of them should retire let the dust settle the in a few years people will finally stop *****ing and realize that they got to witness two hof fighters at there peak.I'm not old enough for the hearns hagler etc era. kind wish I was bit older when I hear others talk bout the fight from memory oh well thank god for you tube. But this is my era I saw live and some kid one day will wishing the same thing.sorry for the rabble !!!

Not every fighter has a mental meltdown due to a KO loss. Oscar is projecting his feelings after his beating on to Pacquiao. The fact is, they are not the same fighter.

Oscar Never said he'd have a meltdown. he simply said it will be very hard to fully recover Psychologically...and it will. Its a boxing fact. name 1 fighter who came back after a brutal KO and was as good as before? You cant cause it just doesnt happen.

Oscar must know

I have to agree with this. Duran came back fine, Ezzard Charles after Walcott, Hearns, Lewis, and Henry Armstrong I believe, there have been plenty.

Lennox Lewis.

That KO will only help Manny fight smarter next time out.
