    Trolling?:? Why would you think that? PAC didn't take on much physical damage at all. PAC didn't have a broken nose or any cuts. That was Juan.....PAC had some bruises of course, especailly from that last shot that sent him off to "La La Land"....but other than that PAC was clean as a whistle.

    Now how Manny has been affected from a physiological stand point is another topic. No one will know how badly that KO affected Manny's psyche...if at all. Some fighters are never the same after a knock out like that...some fighters come back better or the same. It sounds like April we will see how this has affected PAC.

    Tell me the truth...are you hoping that he's ruined?:lol: You know me....I hope the guy bounces back and gives us fans some more epic performances.

    ESB never ceases to amaze me:lol:. Rios is the last type of fighter (health wise), that Pac should be facing. Especially as soon as April.

    You missed my point. Manny is not an inside fighter and guys rushing him and trying to time him will give them more opportunities bc Manny is not patient at all. I am calling it right now. If Manny comes back in April against a game opponent he is going to get rocked a few times. He needs to skip April and work on his craft. **** all the hanger ons and Arum. Just workout and work on that craft. Do plenty of sparring and come back in Nov and **** someone up.

    I'm optimistic....I'm not delusional. I know PAC could suffer some lingering effects from that right hand Juan put him away with. but PAC hasn't responded like some of the other fighters who got slept like that. He's showing signs that he's in good spirits and looking forward to getting back on the horse. PAC's accepting the loss which is key...he's already watching the tape of his own devastating KO lost to Juan and already looking at when he can come back. It sounds promising.....but he needs to be smart about his choice of opponent.

    Marquez is like Tarver to Roy, Tarver studied roy and eventually K.Oed his ass, Marquez knows exactly what pacs going to do. If Pac was smart he should fight a tomato can to build his confidence then get K.Oed by JMM again.

    I wouldn't blame Juan.....that's a hell of a way to end an already legendary career. But you know "Money talks"......you really think if they throw a $10mill guarantee with PPV upside that he won't contemplate going at it with PAC one more gain?

    PAC and Juan have both studied one another...they both have an idea of what move the other is going to make and try to anticipate their actions.

    If you watch the fight...PAC was out boxing Juan by using a lot of combinations but was heavy on shooting the straight left. Juan was looking to land to the body but was heavy on his straight right.

    So essentially this fight was Juan's straight right hand vs PAC's straight left. Manny's weapon did more physical damage and was utilize more than Juan's...the difference is Juan landed that last shot at the last second of round 6 that sent PAC into orbit.

    Rios is an easy fight for him , tailor made. He's a smaller / not as tough version of Margarito.

    IF its not marquez 5 next...

    then this may be opportunity calling for mallinaggi....a light hitter and yet another belt win for manny....and paulie is looking for his retirement fund.

    pacquaio v mallinaggi makes sense every way i look at it IF it isnt going to be marquez 5 next.

    I don' think Pac did a lot wrong there. He fainted Juan and went in for a left hand and got caught with a once-in-a-lifetime type of punch that he literally tripped and fell into and didn't see coming. He could have probably pulled back there but hey that's Pacquiao.

    He shouldn't fight Marquez, Rios or Bradley. He should fight Berto, Ortiz or rematch with Margo. He knocks any of those out. He needs to look good in his next two fights so they can finally do a Floyd v. Manny.

    Some of these answers from Pac fans are ridiculous. I get the impression you want him back as soon as he says he's ready. A boxer would fight the following day he got knocked out if he was allowed to. Their opinions are almost never reasonable when it comes to fighting. Keep in mind he was knocked down not once but TWICE in one night, both shots he took were clean, hard, brutal shots. He's also old for his age due to the wars he's been in.
