Not to take anything away from JMM's fantastic victory with that counter punch from hell, but Pac's chin doesn't seem what it used to be
In this fight we saw the return of the Manny of old days in several senses, not the lethargic half assed version that fought Bradley or the overly cautious Pac of JMM-Pac III, heck, round 5 was practically a return of Pac Prime! This time speed was there, stamina was there, ferocity was there BUT chin was not there! Yeah, JMM's final counter punch was perfect, it landed flush on the chin, full body weight behind, feet firmly planted, opponent stepping in, the full package, ofc Pac had to go down after taking that, yet I still find incredible that he almost got killed by it, it looked like he wouldn't wake up! and what about the first KD? that wasn't a counter and JMM never had that kind of devastating power before. Pac is well known for his sturdy chin yet Marquez made it look like it was made of fragile Khanium I cant believe someone can just develop that sort of power during a 4 month training camp and at almost 40yo, it's unreal Pac's chin is past its prime, that's the only plausible answer |

Pac from round 5 was the return of Prime Pac in many ways
sucks for him that his chin was the only thing that didn't return, actually it got worse What an amazing match anyway, both fighters deserve all kind of props FOTY, ROTY, KOTY etc |

FOTY, ROTY, KOTY fuck YES!
Also His chin wasn't the problem it's he walked straight into a mosnter ight hand counter. Who the fuck walks in with their chin like that, he got over condifent to bad for him. |

And what about the first KD? that wasn't a counter yet Marquez floored Pac so easily and got him hurt. It was like Marquez was spiritually channeling the power of Pryor or Hearns or something |

I agree , I just can't wrap my head around it. Being caught cold and KO'd is one thing, but knocked down twice? By Marquez of all people? This is Pacquiao were talking about not some chinny tomato can. Pacquiao hasn't come close to being knocked down in like the past decade or so. I've seen Marquez hit him with harder shots in the past and Pac ate them up like candy. I guess chins deteroirate with age, or it's probably all the wars / constant wear and tear Pac has gone through.

![]() And while you're at it, explain why Pac got floored so easily the first time, with a punch that wasn't a counter nor was pac stepping in or blind to it Quote:
Manny's everlasting love for brawls its finally showing consequences |

Omg people shut up with Pacquiao is past prime this past prime that. He looked great last night beating Marquez on points half way through the fight. He hasn't been in many wars over the past few years. He's the same fighter he's been for a while.

No Pacquiao catapulted himself in to a straight right hand counter timed perfectly by marquez he never saw it coming those shots are what knock you unconscious. i was very suprised to see him dropped early though that one i'll give you
