Manny is too old to fight. Don't get me wrong, I love Manny, but he should be retiring and not fighting anymore. He doesn't have it anymore, too much luxury, joining politics, church stuff, etc. He is too preoccupied to even be fighting anyone. He doesn't even train as hard before a fight like he did back then. This will be a clear win for Matthysse, but gambling wise, we'll have to see the odds.
Well Matthysse is 35 yrs old now and Pacquaio is 39 so I think it's not a big deal after all.
Matthysse is a heavy puncher? What about Pacquaio? - Soft puncher?
Matthysse gave a hard fight on his peak? What about Pacquaio? - Hmm so the Pound for Pound king is a joke?
Matthysse is an aggressive fighter? Is that the main course of Pacquaio? -
Manny is old? Oh so old that he make young and prime Jeff Horn looks like a punching bag.
Stats don't lie but in general , the verdict will happened on the ring on the day of the event. Goodluck to all.
That may be true, but seriously, if he is still holding that Pound for pound king title, he should really be stripped of it. He hasn't knocked out anybody for years now. He has not had a good fight in ages as well. He may still have the quickness and the sharpness to fight, but the problem is the guy is totally pre-occupied! He's even a senator for christ sake! Aren't they supposed to be working all year round? Not only that, he does so much other things aside from boxing that he doesn't train as well as he used to!
The fact is, he doesn't have that hunger he had before. When he was hungry for a victory just to feed himself. Fame and fortune has gotten way into his head and it is showing.
