    Pacquiao looks slower (or not quite as blazing fast) to me, perhaps his stamina and killer instinct have suffered as well. Maybe he's more conservative and doesn't want to use as much energy as before, I don't know, but I think he's on the decline. I agree that Mayweather is more suited to handle age better because of his brilliant mind and technical skills.

    Whatever, they're both still great fighters despite being on the downside, and need to fight already.

    Agree. I saw an older fighter that night, especially toward the last rounds, I kept thinking about his bout with Barrera and how he just kept on coming and coming. But then again, he was 24. He's 33 now

    No, he is not done. Put a damaged fighter, or an Antonio Margarito and he will look like a killer.

    But he wasn't successful at it. Both Juan and Bradley showed a lot of movement, was the difference is what they were able to do with it.

    Manny looked slower than he has in the past, but I think he's fighting according to his abilities now and being more efficient instead of overextending himself and hoping his speed would compensate like he has his last few fights.

    You think if he was gna go all out it should've been against someone like Brad who has minimal power.

    If you're putting all of your effort into throwing a big punch and suddenly get clocked (Cotto) you don't exactly have your mind and body focused on bracing for the impact.

    Get in the ring and try for yourself.
