Does anyone here really and seriously think MAB will pull the upset?

    It is only a yes or no answer.

    Regardless if you like MAB or a Pac fan, this fight has all the making of one-sided beating. And why?

    MAB is just coming off a close but decisive loss to JMM. Now, if this is a young MAB, and he just comes from a loss, I would favor him to do better in his next fight since he will try to prove something. But MAB versus Pacquaio II is a different story. We should know that.

    MAB was already beaten and dominated by Pacquaio four years ago. It was an upset, at that time, but it was never a close fight after the third round. It was a beating and a humiliating one, for that matter. Pacquaio proved to be the better physical fighter.

    He is older and has considerably lost a step or two in terms of quickness, which is a big no-no against a fighter named Pacquaio, while the latter is in his prime, arguably.

    I can understand if you like MAB but to really pick him base on your fondness of him and his legacy as a great fighter and then basing on that senitmentality, will claim he will still outbox PAc and not seeing the whole picture of the fight is just plain absurd. We know the situation right now, and we have to be clear about it.

    I am a fan of Pac, and I am saying MAB will be taken out of the fight within 7 rounds. I am not saying it because I like Pac but I just feel MAB is a spent fighter AND Pac has his numbers.

    Now, if we talk about Pac fighting Guzman,then I will slightly favor Pac, and I might even raise Guzman's chances if he beats Soto in their NOvermber face-off. But this will for another thread.

    I am a fan of both, but I can't see MAB pull an "upset". The guy is in decline, as I see it.

    Hes still one of the best fighters in the world and his fight with Marquez proved that. He can beat anyone at 130 even Pacquiao if he develops a good gameplan and executes it.

    He has a chance. Not a great chance, and it depends on whether or not Pac is under par, but he has a chance. If Pac fights well, he'll blow MAB away. If Pac's distractions cause him to not be at his best and MAB has one great effort left, he can tip him over.

    :hat

    Its possible, but chances are slimmer this fight than during his last go round. Too many wars will wear him down naturally, but MAB has proven in the past that he can get up for a fight when he sets his mind into tunnelvision.
