He cleaned the ring with that arrogant prick. Manny was setting that tko up all night. I loved how he was so aggressive but in a strategic way. He'd close the gap and take a few shots, wait for him to miss and then throw vicious snapping counters. I was screaming at the TV for the left uppercut the whole fight, but he waited for it and caught him right under the jaw...that was such a precise blow.

I freaking love pacman...watching him enter the ring to Eye of the Tiger at almost 40 and take down the younger and stronger defending champ will go down as one of my favorite fights in the last decade. This is what the Mayweather fight should have been

Was anyone else pumped as hell after the fight?

I was just coming to start a Pac thread after not seeing one earlier.


Pac can't run from Father Time but he's damn sure holding him at bay. He looked like his old self, but fighting smarter. In/out with jabs setting up that monster uppercut. He was back throwing punches from crazy angles like so few fighters are able to do with power.

RJJ could do it, Loma can do it, Sugar Ray could do it. Manny is my favorite fighter and I'll be honest, I was worried about which Manny I'd see last night.

That Manny was exciting and fun to watch. People were worried about Manny getting destroyed in a potential fight with Loma, if he prepares like he did for this fight that ain't happening. Personally, I don't want to see that fight because I love both fighters. I'd like to see him go after Brook or Porter next and if he handles them ok then a megafight with Spence or Crawford.

Never saw fight. You saying manny looked good enough for Crawford fight. I wish. Would love to see Manny teach youngster some old school. These kids don't respect the older guys that put boxing in limelight. Guys like Manny is reason these guys can make the big money fights

Lol. I said ONE of them in the past several years. There's been a draught in boxing the past 5 years. Not like this fight had much competition

God I know right? The announcers called the knock out punch a hook incorrectly...but it was this weird hybrid punch angled perfectly right at that branch of the vagal nerve....lights out

Hes still one of the best in that division. I didnt see the Horn fight, but Manny looked good in the 2 fights before that. Im fine with him fighting Crawford. Would be a good fight and possibly lead to Crawford being the new money guy in boxing.

Bamarep would be OK with this. ANYONE but that cheating Mexican ginger.


I've seen every Pac fight over the last 10 years and he looked very good last night. Good enough to beat Crawford or Spence? I don't know about that but he looked at least as good as he has since the Cotto or Hatton fight.

I'd like for Manny to get one more fight under his belt with Buboy as the lead before he tried either Crawford or Spence. Like I said, Porter or Brook would be good tune ups before a megafight.

The welterweight division was already the best in boxing, by far, but it becomes even more insanely competitive if Pac can consistently fight like he did last night.
