He's been more motivated since then but that fight and Marquez 4 was necessary because imo he was getting unmotivated.
I remember seeing this fight and while PAC clearly won, this was the least motivated I have ever seen him, his body looked soft, he delayed the fight for a freaking basketball game, he fought the last 30 seconds of most of the rounds, he was smiling and goofing around with the commentators.
Imo it also showed how important perception is in boxing, Pac showed he has a very underrated defence in this fight and blocked most punches but the perception is that he has a Gatti type defence or some shiz.
Although a clear robbery I think it was good for Pac imo he was too much in cruise control at that stage.
