damn you blind or what? i had it 1 point ahead for manny..I had a draw
7/14 ESPN+ Manny Pacquiao vs Lucas Matthysse (WBA "Regular" Welterweight Title)
- Thread starter patscorpio
- Start date
I like the style fought off the front foot in the pocket with the quick Bob weave it was enough to put matthysse at fear knowing a punch he wouldn't see, with pop behind it, at that distance and style fought Lucas could only cower, or try to touch a range and those, were on trigger for a counter every damn time...A front foot aggressive counterpunching style...Roach looking out here brehs

This and it's not even close. Esp when he was in his athletic prime, his speed, power, and combos are unreal, esp if u consider how many divisions he moved up.
Counter that with Floyd the greatest defensive fighter of all time, and we we're gifted with two boxing legends in our lifetime

i don't no why yall keep creating this narrative that manny blew out horn
it just wasn't the case. he lost the first half of the fight very clearly
and boxing is scored by a round by round basis
@Stinky Diver I will continue to say what I need to say about Lucas and ain't shyt you can do to stop me lol 
as im a fan of pac and lucas...it was may the best man wins....pac was the better man and looked very good..lucas unfortunately did not....the 1st and 3rd KDs were legit as fukk to me...that 2nd one though I had no idea why he took a knee when a significant punch didnt land anywhere nor was he under heavy fire power
...lucas mentally doesn't have it anymore..the cat that fired back and deafened swift in a close loss, made provodnikov piss black as well as knocked peterson the fukk out..was non existent...he got his belt...id like to see him go off into the sunset if he is not going to be operating at 100%..pacquiao's end game though..remains to be seen
the 2 undercard fights i did catch were entertaining...straight fades
i missed the first one because i was too faded lol....ill check that out later

He lost like two rounds concrete and maybe if I gave you a narrow loss in the first half, he blew the fukk outta him in the latter half. It was pretty obvious who should’ve won

a "narrow lost" equals 4 rounds to horn out of the first 6
and he won atleast 1 round of the remaining 6, i think he won 2.
either way, even if you have manny as the winner,there was no robbery. fight was close

Damn it !! How many times I gotta tell you ……….
nah, wasnt fixed bro....I said ever since this fight was signed...if Manny had any trouble out of Lucas, he should retire. at the best point in Lucas career he wasnt on an elite level. couldnt beat past prime Zab or young Devon. if Lamont wouldve fought him like he did Swift, he'd probably had beat Matthysse, instead he made the world think dude was superman and Swift exposed him. Postol KTFO his ass and we know what my nikka Bud did to Postol.

We all kno why :Smugswift:
pathetic 
Wait hold up, I thought he won both the Zab & Alexander fights, which is why these "losses" never hurt his stock. However, I am not really trying to get into a debate over those fights.
I guess I will just have to see the fight. I have no emotional investment in this whatsoever.
If the fight was fixed Manny wouldn't have whooped his ass so fiercely, lm wouldn't be sending vicious low blows to buy time...
We're u watching, Manny fought off the front foot, in the pocket yet he still lil nikkad lm in there and didn't allow him nothing for free, touch jabs was getting countered with blinding right hooks, and head snapping leaning lefts, butter smooth defensive type shyt...Manny still has levels over this generation, Spence all them nikkas, Manny wouldn't be getting his head boxed off by a dumb brawler like Brook 5-6 rounds, but y'all lil nikkas ain't actually watching watching and know shyt about boxing, appreciate the forty yo legend
You're being kind of emotional.
Please reread my posts. I have not even said the fight and acknowledged it's not fair for me to speak on it at this moment.

Wherever you have Floyd on your ATG listing, Manny can't be more than a person or two behind. Absolute monster.
