That's right! But if only Manny Pacquiao wasn't that busy enough in his last fight then I seriously bet that the outcome of the fight would be much different and Yordenis Ugas would be the one who got defeated. Pacquiao was too busy that time he is also a senator while he is also preparing to run for presidency and then he got a fight.
It wasn't his busy schedule that made him lose the fight. It is the lack of strategy preparation and training on that strategy that made him lose. He also stated it in the interview. His failure to adjust to a different opponent since his training is for Spence but was replaced by Ugas. So all the strategy and training on that strategy goes wasted and Manny has to reboot his training and strategy which does not come easy. Even though his body condition is perfect, he needs to change his boxing strategy 11 days before the fight which he failed resulting in his defeat.
With the losses that he's made, that also made him realize that he's aged although he can still really box well. But age does really play a factor for athletes like in boxing.

Yeah, I guess that it will be a different story if he's not doing other things with his last match.
The core problem isn't being busy but he failed to adapt to the playstyle of the replacement.
But that's it, it's better to accept it on his end and he'll just move on and do some other things to make himself busy. IIRC, the fighter was even changed at that very last minute of time and it wasn't Ugas, right?
Ugas is the replacement and I think it was 11 days before the fight. So a sudden change in strategy in a short notice seems to be too much for Manny.
