    Fcuk I hope its not that serious. I did see him squinting a lot yesterday and mentioned it here that he may have suffered a serious eye injury like a detached retina but thought it might have just been related to the cold he had.

    Press conference tried to cover it up, it was clear Pac was struggling at post-fight conference, and they said they had to go because of his "cold".

    Love the run Pacs on but don’t see him any higher than 5th or 6th in the H2H pecking order.

    Crawford
    Spence
    Thurman
    Porter
    Pacquiao
    Garcia

    How I have it.

    Broner put Porter on his hole. Manny would light him up. Too fast.

    Just keep looking at it though those Crawford hater eyes. Gamboa got knocked completely off his feet 30 seconds after "he hurt Crawford." At NO time in that fight was Crawford in danger of going down and Gamboa went down 4 times. Benevidez won at most 3 rounds out of 11 and then got face planted and saved by the referee. Don't act like he was ever a danger to Crawford. I get you don't like him and you have an opinion but you don't get to edit the facts.

    Well he's 2-1 in the last 2+ years. And I scored the Jeff Horn fight to Horn by a point, sooooo...

    Definitely agree with the above posters that he's 5th in this respect in my eyes at the moment. He's 40, that's a great feat.

    I like watching Pac as much as the next guy... but I don't want to see him get hurt fighting these young lions. He has nothing more to prove.

    Exactly. Porter is like a better version of Horn. Not to mention Porter has been fighting more intelligently as of late too.

    So you agree Gamboa hurt Crawford and a 1 legged guy took at least 3 rounds off him.

    I don't hate Crawford, I just hate the marketing. Show me resume, not empty words. No, past prime Khan doesn't improve it much either.

    Rofl. PPL like you have been saying Pac would get beat by everyone he faced his whole career. Nothing new.

    These young lions are over hyped to hell. It's not like a prime Leonard and yet you guys make these Thurman's and Spence's out to be some boogeymen when they can't even stomach the balls to fight each other instead facing cans of tomato soup over and over.

    Spence and Crawford beats him. Pac is clearly not the best WW. His time is over as top or best WW!

    You think Manny has a claim to being the best WW in the world right now because he beat Broner? Broner?!!! I don't know about you sometimes.
