Why are people getting so carried away with Pacquiao's 'decline'

Apparently having a razor think decision against a guy you've already had 2 razor think decisions against years ago, and decisively beating but getting robbed against a top 10 p4p fighter, means you're in serious decline....

 

There is no getting around he has declined some, that's basic logic. However, I think his matchmaking is what has made him look bad. He needs to be matched with guys who will exchange with him and slug it out. This is where he excels and motivates him. Guys like Marquez frustrate him, Mosley would not exchange and Bradley is another Marquez type, and when he finally decided he couldn't trade with Manny he was doing better later in the fight, buy Manny still won that fight, regardless of judging.

Some could argue that Bobby has been trying to get him some experience against boxers while letting the possible Mayweather fight marinate, which has been marinating way too long now. Bobby knows Mayweather is a fantastic boxer that would trouble Manny all night.

I still feel Bobby will look to make that fight and cash out, take that chance at some point, and maybe Manny will win, or look good enough and make an exciting enough fight to warrant another fight between the two.

Strange things happen, and it wouldn't surprise me at all if Manny and Mayweather end their careers making each other a lot of money, and maybe even fighting a trilogy before all is said and done.

 

U are dumb to base your entire argument on PAC/may vs Marquez. U can't use Marquez as a blanket description of " skilled boxer". Styles make fights if u don't realize that get into another sport. Funny how a may fan brings that up so much bout refuses to acknowledge how PAC did cotto n how may did him. Or mosely and hatton for that matter. And u all ignore what Castillo did to him. Lol get a clue. Who did what against who n blah blah is pointless. Look at what forest did to Shane. Who will history remember?

 

Pacquaio and Mayweather are on the decline agree but one is trying a new style at an age that will cause him to lose alot of matches. Pacquaio all out attack style is gone. Hes resorted to fight a minute out of every three. This wil work against B level fighters and people with no power or accuracy, but against younger, stronger and more technically sound fighter. He will be in for a tough scrape. When youre a pressure fighter are all out exciting fighter and dont concentrate on defense or the jab, body shots and just rely on speed, your in for a fall when your speed and stamina star to decline.

 

:deal

 

Lol not getting a point in your post

 

Tell me what was biased and or ignorant. Moron

 

^^

That Floyd is ducking Pacquiao.

That Pacquiao will beat Floyd because he is a southpaw.

The irony of your post is remarkable.

 

Because its a breathe of fresh air compared to the swampass "He can do no wrong" **** HBO has been shoving down our throats.

Look people decline... #Itiswhatitis

 

By HBO?? I would say no.
Never heard Lampley say "Bang!, Bang!, Bang!" for anyone else besides Manny.
(Worst call ever in the history)

 

He is slowing down,if people choose not to believe that,fine but the proof is in the pudding.. He does not have the power or speed he did 3-4 years ago..

 

People forget that yeah he was SUPPOSED to whoop Tim and Juan and lost to both.. He looked average against Tim,he was just the harder puncher that night.. The Legend of Pacmania is coming to an end just accept it...

I remember I had to accept when Roy was done,it's just part of the sport,you gotta let go of the invincibility factor he once had.
