Now that we are nearing the 1 year anniversary of May 118-110 Pac, let's discuss it.

It actually would have been worse for Pac back then than it was on May 2nd. He was far more limited and one-dimensional and far more reckless. This current Pac is a much better boxer with a higher ring IQ and has better defense than that version.

 

They did accept drug testing, then floyd didnt want to know and ducked pac. Thats fact

 

Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang, Bang!

 

This version you speak of was it before or after he (Pac 2.0) got his face planted into the canvass?:think

 

No they didn't dumbass and Roach stated in the video that it was their fault yet your crazy ass still wants to argue that he did back then.

 

:yep

 

Before, I'm talking about the 2009 or 2010 version.

 

A steady jab along with lateral movement beats Pac. :yep If Bradley would have fought the whole fight like he did in the first 3 rounds he would of won an easy UD last weekend.

 

:good

 

Roach is an embarrassment. atsch I wish Pacquiao would have been trained by Emanuel Steward (rip). :verysad

 

pacquiao fought 2 guys in the ring that night.

 

Went down like I thought it would. Anybody who really broke it down knew Manny had nothing to answer Floyd's jab with. Add in the superior footwork, defense, boxing IQ... etc. Honestly, this was the biggest mismatch in "super fight" history. I can't believe so many people actually thought Manny could win this bout.

Game, Set, Match in Round 1, it was over that fast. Manny was going to be forced to over-commit all night. A gamble he was clearly not willing to take.

I can only hope a few of the hardcore Pacquiao fans understand the concept of "range" now. One can only hope...

 

And again you ignore the fact that roach said that they ended up accepting drug testing...

..then floyd demanded pac join tmt before they can fight or some other crazy ducking type stuff

 

Was the most anticipated, most watched, and biggest event in boxing history.

Was a shame that everyone expected Tyson/Berbick and nothing short could possibly satisfy.

My favorite part was how everyone and their mama became "huge boxing fans" who acted like they could carry conversations and knew all kind of clever stuff about boxing... comedy hour.

Ultimately, if the fight was the exact same but both fighters were flipped, then everyone would say it was a chill, cool fight. Just that the bad guy who everyone was rooting against won with ease.

 

2009-2010... when the fight meant the most... Roach admits "it was probably our fault for the fight not happening back then." There is video evidence. He even stood by the statement when later questioned. Just move on, man.
