    He's clearly declined, but is still a top fighter. I think he has a good 2 MAYBE 3 years left.

    Stfu I never said anything about Mayweather. And as for the guy called Void, I'm ashamed to be a fan of the same boxer as you.

    But I think the fights were just down to the style. I have NO idea why some of you felt he looked bad against Rios. He won every single second of the fight to me, and as always that left hand straight was landing insane. I was very impressed, and I'm holding Pac to the standards of him being my all time favourite boxer.

    The first two rounds against Bradley showed that he still has the same downsides as he always did, but his speed (which some of you say is in decline) frustrated an undefeated huge level boxer to the point that he was swinging for the KO.

    Also, someone said he's been in decline since the Cotto fight. I agree, I don't think I'll EVER see a Pac performance as that fight. But that aside, watch his last fight with JMM. Can you guys honestly say he ever looked better against him? He might have went down twice, but the two shots from JMM were INSANE. He adjusted his foot placement and that fight was epic. Unfortunate for Pac that the big shot landed on his chin and not his opponent's, but I just don't see it. People overrate the "decline". I remember someone online said that they didn't think Pac would last the 12 rounds against Bradley at the pace he was fighting. Are they serious? That's kind of Pacquiao's thing.

    I agree with him in asking what it has to do with Floyd :D.

    But how do prostitutes effect your fighting performance? haha

    I hadn't seen Pac fight in a long time so was not slowly conditioned into seeing any changes in him. I would've been a great observer into saying weather he did or didn't but, unfortunately, I can't say for sure in the long moments of Bradley's inactivity, and Pac not capatilizing, was due to Pac being wary of that great counter Bradley landed in the third (I believe) If I had to guess I would say he did.

    Pacquiao has clearly gone backwards.

    He has been in a lot of hard fights , prime 2009 would hammer Floyd.

    Today Floyd might stop him.

    It's just an excuse. With Marquez its because he got physically bigger yet they forget so did Pacman and the rest of his opponents still dwarf Marquez. They forget he's also 40yrs old.

    With Bradley its because he ran too much. Tho its OK when Pacman does it.

    With the faded Morales it was the socks or needles I forget which one.

    Pacquaio never declined he was kicking Jmms ass before getting KO'd. He just fought fighters that could fight back.

    Most thinks Pac is in a decline recently because the bar was set very high. They want knock downs and knock outs. Without that, he is in a decline regardless whether he won convincingly.

    Haha. So his footwork isn't as good as people think but his "positioning" is fantastic? Right, got it. Pacs footwork breaks Bradley's legs n feet every time they fight. N bradley is pretty nimble. N PAC is gettin old. U shouldn't be callin people ******ed.

    definitely doesnt have the same speed and his punches dont have that same pop because he doesnt sit down on them as much. lots of arm punching.

    He has declined, his footspeed is slower and less explosive - he used to be able to dart around the ring, his chin isn't as good, his handspeed is quite a bit slower, now when he throws flurries you can see them, before it used to be a blur, also due to this lack of speed his punches lack the same effect, hence the less KO's
