    Old man Pac

    Good to see him get a haircut

    Not going to buy into anything... Don't care how driven he is and how good a camp he has...

    Let's see if he is more competative this time around

    Pac looks old, older than his years.

    I wonder how he'll look on the scales this time round. He was noticeably softer against Bradley.

    I don't think we'll ever see Pacquiao as ripped as we are used to seeing him. Not because he isn't training as hard, but simply because of natural muscle deterioration as you age. The same is also happening to Mayweather. Find a recent video (from the Ortiz or Cotto training camps) of Mayweather skipping without his top on. Look at the muscle deterioration in his pecs.

    Yeah, there's that too.

    But because he weighed 147 for the first time (usually he's 144-145?) and Ariza admitted Pacquiao wanted to ease off in the latter part of camp, it just raised my eyebrows a bit and confirmed that he really can't be bothered with his sport anymore. Don't know where he's gonna' find the motivation this time round.

    True, but do you not see his hairstyle? He is back to the old, ferocious Pacquiao we seen rise up the ranks quickly. More motivated than ever. Remember, it is his first official 'L' on his record since Morales. And we seen what he did after that. :hey

    Yes! He's donning the same hairstyle and cut of beard that he had for the Diaz fight - the beginning of his meteoric rise up in weight! He also needs to stop wearing his blue trunks :nono. Have you noticed that all three of his disappointing fights have seen him wear the blue? He needs to go back to the switching of red and white.

    Definitely holds significance. :good

    He also needs to start feinting like he used to, this is the key to his success.

    Counter punchers really do give him the creeps, don't they.

    :lol: Oh ****, son! They're gonna' be foot-stomping the **** out of each other this December. And I remember that thread :good. Too bad Pacquiao doesn't appear to have the legs to avoid this problem again. He appears to panic everytime JMM steps towards him.

    I thought Pacquaio was the guy in the left side for a split second. :lol:

    I think Pac will continue to fight to pay the bills. Not like Bob is giving him the lion share of what he deseres. Hopefully, Juan will win with no doubts.
