    If Pac WAS on performance enhancing drugs, he still is, I promise you that much. Even these "elite" testing measures Floyd demanded couldn't catch him taking it. I think if people knew the truth about how commonplace drug taking in boxing, and all sports, they'd be horrified.

    I think it's pretty clear to anyone with an ounce of reading comprehension, or even basic intelligence, that my hypothesis is that Manny was knocking out a lot of guys who had been knocked out before and/or after, then he started fighting LARGER fighters who had never been knocked out and are probably indestructible and hence failed to continue knocking people out.

    Looking at the dates of fighters who weren't stopped, there is no other pattern.

    Dumbass.

    On the other hand, this usually happens when fighters get old.

    Pacquiao is WELL PAST PRIME, everyone know it deep down, it's just no one wants to confront it at the moment.

    Manny stopped using whatever he was using.

    Him moving up so many weightclasses without losing any speed or power isn't right. You have to be an idiot to think he's clean.

    Actually. It's not fair to say he stopped. He probably just got the cycle right. Which couldn't be done for the original Floyd fight.

    People forget, his lack of KO's also coincided with people changing their mindset towards fighting him. They ran and went into survival mode. Before Cotto it was, Pac too small, Pac would get destroyed by any top 10 real WW thats not a corpse Oscar.

    I was here in the forums during those days, I heard the talk. All these noobs with 0 boxing knowledge trying to find some coincidence and basing it off that.

    It still doesn't explain him being able to retain so much speed and power while going up in so many weightclasses.

    Duran got slower as he went up. Manny was just as fast his first two years at WW that he had been at 130 and lower.

    ok. and you just forget that he started at the lower weights and is now fighting them bigger guys now. all his opponents above 140 are all a push too much actually. his size and weight should just be at 140 but there's no competition there so he moved up.

    Does that explain why he kept his speed?
