    Didn't know they already updated it.

    All I can say is damn! The man is a such a warrior up until Cotto.
    You can summarize his resume as this:
    - the wars on the lower weights (esp. JMM, Barrera, Morales, Ledwaba, Sasakul)
    - wins over ODLH, Hatton, Cotto, Margarito(?) and JMM(?)
    - absolute destruction over his path (except a chosen few *cough* *JMM* *cough*)

    Until now, I don't get how people could hate on him.
    Forget the questionable decision(s) over JMM (well at least HBO admitted it on the clip), what he did for the sport is special.

    Also he was still quite fast and relentless in Pac vs JMM 3, I really don't know what happened to him in Pac vs Bradley.
    It's like he was gassing out way earlier than usual.

    Pacquiao isn't the same fighter he was in 2009 and never will be

    No matter "how good the camp was" and "how motivated he is"

    I really think this was either due to age, ring age and/or some failed nutrition/conditioning system.

    If I would rewrite his career, I would rather that after fighting Cotto he went back down to 140 to unify the division and fight JMM (3rd time) and Bradley there.
    Forget Mosley, Clottey and Margarito.
    Then maybe move up to WW again to face Floyd and hang up his gloves after the mega fight.

    I truly believe that version of Pac had the best shot against FMJ.

    He seems to be just going through the motions. The fire is gone.
