This is where the hungry lions go wrong. They thought they could dispose pacman but they will get exposed once they fight him. Pac could destroy a young fighter's career with a huge potential. Especially khan ,pac would retire khan before him.

This is the perfect time for a young fighter to beat pacquiao.. but if you underestimate him enough you will pay and you might get into retirement earlier than pac.

Algeri doin pretty good after the drubbing by Pacman, actually he's doin great! Almost upset Khan. Sure, Floyd, even Pacquiao favored to beat most in their division, but the gap is getting smaller and their domination not as it was before. Their reigns, in one way or another, are coming to an end.

theyre coming for you Manny Pacquiao. 2016 will mark the first time in the career of the Filipino icon where every effort will be made to turn him from hunter to prey. And now, more so than at any other time of his career, Pacquiao will have to be ready to fend off the challenges from young lions as well as deal with the floodgates to these challenges being opened by promoter Bob Arum.

Like with wild animals in the jungle, weakness is seen as a liability in boxing. A wounded beast, no matter how ferocious in his prime, will be targeted by other animals for elimination. In the boxing world, the mighty cash cows of the game will be pursued at the right time and taken down in a forced passing of the torch.

In the particular case of Manny Pacquiao, earning the richest payday of his life for the most frustrating loss of his career is enough to get him pegged as a prime targetjaded from the money and demoralized from the defeat. Throw in Mannys shoulder injury and the fact that hell be 37 in December, entering into his 21st year as a pro and its clear why the biggest and best in the 140-147 lb. range are practically licking their chops for a shot at retiring him.

And with a win over Pacquiao, of course, comes a huge step up in the sport, a much higher guaranteed purse, and, perhaps, a pay-per-view career of their own. Just as Manny rose to next-level s****om when he retired Oscar De la Hoya, boxings top welters and junior welters are looking to do the same at his expense.

Terence Crawford is frequently mentioned as the pound-for-pound heir apparent to Mayweather and Pacquiao and looks to be in a good position to challenge Manny in the second half of 2016. Kell Brook is a talented UK welterweight and world title belt holder who would jump at the chance of meeting Manny. Danny Garcia is a former two-belt champ at junior welterweight who just moved up to welter to pursue these types of big fights. Amir Khan, of course, has been itching for either Mayweather or Pacquiao and, given his raw athletic ability, could score an upset over either on any given night. Hard-hitting Lucas Matthysse would love a chance to crack Pacquiao and instantly become a national hero in his native Argentina. The talented Keith Thurman is also around and would not think twice about stepping up to Manny for a shot at the really big time. Count, also, former Mayweather foes, Marcos Maidana and Robert Guerrero among those willing to target Pacquiao.

Of course, some of these pairings would be roadblocked by boxing politics, but, as we saw from Mayweather-Pacquiao, if both sides really want a fight, deals can be brokered.

Whatever the case, though, the young lions in the jungle smell weakness when they sniff around Manny Pacquiao. Opponents will be coming at him heavy and hard and from every direction possible this coming year. If hes not ready for the attacks, his legendary career will be cut down most brutally.

They basically have to gun for Pac now, no more lottery tickets coming from Floyd. Pac is next best payday they going to get!

Thurman or Brook should shatter Manny's weak mandible once more, then Manny can call it a day.

I'm just sat here reading these posts & laughing at the Mayweather lemmings claiming Pacquaio is old , shot , injured & easy pickings. If that is true how come Mayweather struggled to beat him when he only had one good arm & was fighting in pain after being sabotaged??? On the other hand Mayweather had every advantage any fighter could ever have , some legal some downright ILLEGAL!! Don't they realize how they are dissing their own idol ROFLMAO
