    It makes sense to me. Pac seems to be holding back in his last fight with Barrera. I was like :huh

    Nevertheless Pac dominated that fight no question.

    Believe it or not but MP Productions (that is Manny Pacquiao Productions) is a co-promoter of the Larios fight. In the Philippines, the fights are shown in a delayed telecast since the TV station has to squeeze in 10 minutes of advertisements for every round. Guess what, MP Productions has a slice of the advertisement earnings. How do Pacquiao maximize his profit? Extend the fight up to 12 rounds!!!

    You were asking why Pacman didn't KO Larios. An explanation was given to you. If what I said doesn't sound valid, then give your counter argument. You can do better than what you wrote. I know you are smart.

    Ok here is my reply.

    Pac cant win every fight, and he cant KO every opponent he beats. It takes nothing away from his stock as a fighter.

    I think its ridiculous that every time Pac loses or cant KO his opponent, an excuse is offered up.

    Doesnt KO Barrera: didnt want to humiliate him

    Doesnt KO Larios: didnt train or carried him for t.v. purposes

    Loses to Morales: Wrong gloves, promotional problems, headbut, etc.

    Draws with JMM: Wrong socks

    Early career KO: low blow


    Maybe its just me, but why not be content with saying he is the second best fighter in the entire world, but every once in a while he is legitimately beaten or cant KO other professional fighters?

    If what you wrote will make you happy, then I will agree with what you said. You see I'm a Pac fan but I will not die for him. I gave you a reason why he did not KO Larios. I did not talk about the other boxers. Now get back to what I said about him co-promoting the fight and earning a share of the advertisements and tell me that it doesn't connect to why Larios reached round 12.
