Pacquiao got balls. He really needed and should have taken a tune-up first. I think he won't overtrain this time and he can focus on fighting an orthodox fighter.
If Pacquiao is saying that Ugas is one of the easiest opponents he ever faced, it seems like he felt Ugas was very basic, knew what Ugas was doing to set stuff up, knew the openings that were being presented ... but can no longer react quickly enough to take full advantage of them. Hey, even Muhammad Ali went there when he hung around for too long. At this point, the best option for Pacquiao is to hang it up and do other things with his life.
Ugas might stop him in the rematch he just has to take it easy the first 4 rounds by simply using his jab and boxing like he did in their first fight after that he can start to press because anytime he opened up he landed easily on Pac and he was busting him up. Lastly rematches typically favor the better boxer, Pac needs to move on and retire or he will end up with another loss trying to fight Ugas.
What happened to Ali was criminal. Pac realizes he's human now. That won't bode well for his confidence.
Ugas is far better than most of Manny`s opponents and longer, what about Manny`s early fights for God`s sake?
He didn`t overtrain, he trained poorly, his pasd work was all wrong and Ugas trained better than him. 2:38
Ugas' jab was money all throughout this fight. It's one thing to have height and reach advantages and it's another thing to use them properly and Ugas did just that. No robbery here or set ups, the better man won.
Pacquiao has in the past come in very different for every rematch. I’d be interested to see how much he can change at this stage. Ugas is one of the safest fights for him anyway. “Easiest” opponent was surprising since he said Ugas can’t be underestimated before the fight.
Ali in 70 ies was under King. He get comfortable for him fight in Zaire vs Foreman and did not had gave him rematch cos dear, he was so good boxer. He get interesting refs and judges in fights vs Frazier and Frazier still had spanked him in first fight. Then he dragged Frazier to Manila and overall. Ali from 70 ies for me is 1-2 vs Norton and 1-2 vs Frazier and level below Foreman. When ***** needed rematches, he get them with a glance. While Ali from 70 ies for me below Norton, Frazier and Foreman. Shame on Ali about talking vs Frazier, at least he get proper long term result from God he really had deserved. ' God is Undisputed not human.
