No, he made the same excuse during the post fight interview and also alluded to him not having enough time to figure out Ugas. But apparently we can only post the positive.
Manny Excusequiao. Ugas schooled him. Mannys head was a speed bag at times. Just accept it and retire. You're old and a legend. No reason to make excuses at THIS stage. It wasn't even a world class performance by Ugas who looked lazy in some of those rounds and made it close for no reason.
That’s what happens with age and Ugas presented a formidable stylistic obstacle with the skills to pull it off.
Pac is genuinely humble. When asked why he didn't win, I think he's being honest that his legs felt stiff. Sure it comes off as an excuse, but I think it's easier to accept that when it's coming from a 42 year old. I mean it's believable that a 42 year old legs were stiff.
No dude, it's fake. Remember the Socks excuse post Marquez 1 or the "clitoris" excuse after the Morales fight. I could go on and on. Pac is a legend boxer but lets stop pretending he's a saint.
Let’s be honest, PAC’s legs being stiff has been a go to since the Clottey fight. Every loss or underperformance since then that has been mentioned.
Pacman is telling the truth. If his legs were not as stiff for this fight, he could have won against the stiffness of Ugas. Pacman never lies, he is a man of god.
Every fighter makes excuses. And he's been on about cramps for years and years, it's real probably. It's a part of it, the package that is Ugas beat the 42 year old package that is Pacquiao, of course Pacquiao's body is letting him down a bit, like every single other sportsman on the planet earth.
