    It will be sad if that happens. If pac is the same level as he was with horn, I think he can still out point matthyse

    It has car crash appeal.

    Is GrandPac really training like Prime Pac??? Only Buboy knows

    Pac by KO.

    Matty Ice is shot and I think Pac is less shot. Pac still has his speed and that'll be the difference in the fight.

    Edit: I'll add that Matthysse being befuddled by a basic 1-2 from Kiram shows where he is operating at this stage in his career. I really don't give him any chance at being Pacquaio. He'll be paid well though and I think for a guy who's given so much of himself to boxing, he deserves a retirement check.

    Both fighters are shot but of course Pac is great and Lucas is just good, Pacquiao should win this it's all up to him..

    Please make this be Packito's last fight. Give it up already.

    He can't pull the trigger anymore. I saw in Suncorp Horn got off first.

    Pac's is like a second slower to respond. SHOT!

    Pacquiao beats Lucas easy
    I think pac overlooked horn
    Besides, most people had pac beating horn
    Other than cuts Via butts horn did no damage to pac but pac mangled his face

    Pac gives one last great performance and puts a whipping on Lucas

    Not sure why people are hating on this fight and/or surprised by it?

    Since when does a match-up of two faded punchers desperately battling to stay afloat by crocodile-rolling the other not merit interest?

    Since when did we forget that everybody LOATHED the idea of Pacquiao vs. Alvarado (with many people exclaiming "why oh why couldn't he just answer Matthysse's recent call-out instead??? :shakehead:")

    Since when, if you're Matthysse fans, are you sad about him finally getting a mega payday after paying his dues for so many years, being in so many wars, all the iffy officiating and boxing politics he put up with?

    Since when, if we're Pacquiao fans, are we upset about him getting A WORLD TITLE SHOT COMING OFF A LOSS when his promoter was recently poised to set him up with a rusty drug addict in a 10-rounder buried on an undercard?

    :dunno

    Not too much Matthysse anymore, I just did not like him because of the ridiculous constant rabbit punching. Respect to him for becoming champ though.

    I kind of want to see him knock PED out :headbash:wanker:wanker:wanker:wanker:wanker
