No hate, just pure facts, the show is over and I guess if Manny keeps fighting boxers like Lucas he will be fine but I hope he doesnt try to fight any young fighters as he will get hurt...as for Lucas he needs to disappear period!!! I know ya'll are happy he got a ko (reminds me of Roy getting his ko's late in his career) but that will only fool him into thinking he is back and he for damn sure is not!!!

But I agree he shouldn't fight the toughest opponents available just like floyd didnt. But maybe he will. Unless you try you won't know.
Whats worse that could happen he might lose. He might get badly hurt also i guess.Last edited by hugh grant; 07-17-2018, 05:45 PM.

I was critical of the fight to. As a Pacquiao fan I can be honest with myself and say this isn't the Pacman of 10 or even 5 years ago. But when I analyze the fight a little more I realize that this is impressive stuff that Pacquiao is doing this late into his career. His style is different obviously taking into account that he may not feel like he used to. He's sharp, quick, but he picks his punches and connects when he picks em. He's got a killer left uppercut and still has that elusive straight left that somehow cuts through the guard still. Pacquiao is a reinvented fighter. Who knows if there's one last great fight left in him but he could do very well against most fighters today. A Crawford, Loma fight might push him to his limit to see what exactly is left in him. But at 39 years of age, with the legacy he's already created, along with him fighting at a world class level, this guy is a living legend. Instead of slandering his image by saying he uses PEDs, just respect the greatness.
