    Nitwit ? LOL. lay off the crack bruh. Pacquiao lost in a close but clear fight. I won't take anything away from Pac, he's an old man with diminished footspeed. He's a top 10 ATG, but he lost

    Dude no one is saying age hasn't caught up with him. The question is would it have been a better performance if he just concentrated on boxing.

    Shot Manny losing a close decision to Ugas at 42 years of age after a two year layoff >> Floyd embarrassing the sport of boxing after allowing a 0-1-0 Youtuber to score a huge event win over him. Don't forget Manny was set to fight boogeyman leprechaun basher par excellence Spence who some feel is worthy of his P4P top 10 ranking prior to Spence deliberately scratching his eye with one of his beau Yella Beezy's CDs to avoid facing an inactive shot senior citizen.

    Without seeing any compubox numbers we know Manny missed a ton of punches, his timing was off and Ugas reach put him in an even bigger hole. Even when commentary tried to compliment Pac flurries they had to take it back on the replays, lol we all did.

    See, I told y'all Ugas CAN beat Pac and that he's a high risk low reward fight.
    The range, strength and most importantly, style is all wrong for Pac.

    Nonetheless, I had it 7-5 for Ugas and that is still impressive for a 42 year old.
    He took big hits there especially in the 12th.

    Pac looked devastated because he knows it's time to hang them AND more importantly he feels that he let the fans down.
    Felt sorry for him really.

    Let's be honest, Pacquaio was a great fighter but not any longer.

    This in the grand scheme of things takes nothing away from his legacy and the fact he was great, actually he was amazing at times but now is the time to go back to his home country and have a couple of fights there for his loyal and fanatical fans against low level opposition and go out with a couple of wins and with the love and adoration he deserves.

    I genuinely believe if Spence Jr was in there tonight Pacquaio would have taken a beating, he may have possibly have got hurt and he don't deserve that and nobody wants to see that.

    I wish Pacquaio well, I really hope he accepts it's over at top level for him and exits the sport on a high with a couple of nice wins back home.

    yeh got to admit, I was trying to convince myself that Pac was winning some of the closer rounds. Pac looked worse than I envisioned actually. Looked uncoordinated and clumsy at times. Clear win for Ugas. I knew this fight would be awful for Pac, it went exactly how I thought it would and I got slated on the boxing scene Facebook group for saying so when the change of opponent was announced. I personally think Ugas beat Porter more convincingly than Spence did. Would not be shocked to see Ugas beat Spence.

    Yes, Josh Taylor bashed up both Ugas and Porter in the gym when he was a mere 7 fight novice.

    Pac looked like he overtrained, honestly. He was still running and working out all the way until yesterday. He had trained exclusively for Spence and then switched to Ugas with 11 days to go. A few days later, they brought in orthodox fighters and they sparred.

    I just pick fights right. I don't need validation from posters thank you very much. I have forgotten more about boxing than most of you will ever know.
