    Floyd is the one deteriorating, he should retire.

    Again we talk about the left, is that all PAC got left??

    He is not shot but in decline, with his outside life and age effecting his all round game, it's damaging for his legacy IMO.

    It's better to just retire, he has done enough in this sport.

    Unless he doesn't run around the ring.If you know boxing, not everyone can land a damn combo on a guy with slick defense.

    Dude does not stand in one spot. He be moving his head to negate the attack.He has sound defense.

    I ain't saying timmy a Pernell or nuffing.You can land 1 on him try but 3 or 4 GTFO.NO Way! he a champion and undefeated.

    But ya! Pacquiao is SHOT and should retire.Not bad for a Flyweight fighting a WW that is undefeated though.

    Here is my score card.

    Pacquiao 10-9 Bradley - Clean, effective punching.
    P 9-10 B - Just edges it.
    P 10-9 B - Clean, effective punching.
    P 10-9 B - Clean, effective punching - combination punching.
    P 10-9 B - Clean, effective punching.
    P 10-9 B - Clean, effective punching.
    P 10-9 B - Clean, effective punching, closer round - 6 rounds to Pacquiao. :deal
    P 10-9 B - Clean, effective punching.
    P 10-9 B - Clean, effective punching.
    P 9-10 B - " " - Bradley backing off and not allowing Pacquiao to land.
    P 9-10 B - " ".
    P 9-10 B - " ".
    Pacquiao 8-4 Bradley

    No problem with 7-5, but that's about the limit. After that, you're not scoring clean effective punching, you are scoring punches that are taken on the gloves/missed.


    Are you sure you have watched the whole bout? Ignore the straight left, watch how successful he is with the single jab, the jab to set up the left, the left uppercut, the right hook. You may not see these punches because they are not in combinations often, but they are clearly there to see.

    You claimed he is done, that equates to shot. How can it effect his achievements? His achievements have already been achieved, that can not be changed. You can not undo a legacy, you can not damage a legacy. Poor performances at the end of a career do not undo great work over a career.

    Manny is the same Manny at 50% , minus the intensity that he used to have. He fights like he's on ambien now, which compared to most boxers is still pretty active - which tells you how much of a physical beast he used to be.

    He looked fine. His speed and legs were all there. We saw that in his training clips and we saw this in the fight when they both were engaging in close range.

    The problem always comes when a fighter doesn't engage him straight. And, he may get bored when a fighter doesn't come at him unlike before where he might try to keep attacking. But being older and smarter may be his way of saying, I don't need to waste energy. But his punch-out-put has always dropped against certain fighters.
    He expected Bradley to come forward and attack...Bradley stopped that when he started getting tagged. Same happened with Mosley when he went into survival mode and shuffled away from him.

    His physical attrubutes are definitely on the decline
    The Pac that beat Cotto would have sparked out Bradley
