    Its weird

    He didnt fight very well vs JMM in fight 3 and Bradley seemed to control the pace in plenty of rounds and frustrated Manny with movement and the jab

    however in fight 4 with JMM Manny was winning and looked great til the KO

    I think moving and countering undoes Manny and counter acts his style but vs JMM he came in very strong and determined and was getting to JMM before getting the lights turned out

    its tough to say because had JMM gotten stopped in the 5th of fight 4 we would think Manny was back

    It's really his best back at the time when he beat Cotto and Hatton.

    That Pac has everything clicking. After the Margo fight, everything seemed downhill.

    Pac had been on the decline since the Hatton fight. And even against hatton, it is hard to say if he was still at peak as the fight only lasted for 2 rounds.

    The prime Pac was really the one who fought Barrera the 1st time up to the time he fought Morales the 3rd time.

    Yes the Pac who drew with JMM was prime. And so is the one who lost to Morales, although this one needs to be put into context considering the blood extraction 2 days before the fight, the huge huge cut he sustained early in that fight and even at that, it was a close fight.

    The Pac of the recent times had lost fire. His feints were a huge factor in his success in creating openings and those were all gone. He just punches 1-2 and has almost become a pure counterpuncher. His speed is still there but his stamina is not even half as good. I really believe that in his fight with Margarito, that his supposed "act of mercy" in the last few rounds was really his way of taking breather. Same in his fight with Cotto where he was simply following Cotto around the ring.

    However I saw a resurgent Pac in 4th fight with Marquez. Pac was clearly dominating Marquez in that fight before the KO. He was so intent in beating Marquez that he got careless and ran into a huge punch.

    I am not sure how Pac will rebound in his next fight. I think that if he fights Marquez another time, that the pressure will be on him to KO Marquez, which may cause him to take unnecessary isks.

    yeah, obviously the fire is not what it used to be. what is the reason for this?
