Buboy trainer of the year
7/14 ESPN+ Manny Pacquiao vs Lucas Matthysse (WBA "Regular" Welterweight Title)
- Thread starter patscorpio
- Start date
AB likely would get stopped. It would be a bloodbath if you ask me. He cant handle the activity of Mikey....how he gonna stand up to that type of activity with real speed, power, and unorthodox style? Broner is done, he really shouldnt even be a topic at this point. Manny is a whole nother level than Maidana
. Horn just got physical with him and still got a gift. From a boxing standpoint, Manny is a tough out for anyone out there right now. Even Bud. To beat Manny you have to be a good thinker and have some physical tools as well such as reach.
we went over this before. like Floyd said. there is no such thing as a "really won". they kept sayin he was getting jobbed. but when you are in close fights like that, you arent doing enough to win. Glen Johnson was straight up getting robbed but then he became fighter of the year so people could see how good he really was. I looked back on those fights and thats why I picked Swift to beat him when everyone else thought he was going to get murdered. Matthysse was good but its not like he was this era's Oba Carr, plus he is more past his prime than Manny from all the wars he has been in. people really wanted to make Matthysse a star but he just didnt have it, even as far as Schaeffer proclaiming he was the next Manny Pacquaio
Am I the only one that realizes that there is a significant size difference there? People keep talking about Bud and Manny. Brehs, Loma is the size of an average woman - and not even a thick one. Seriously, the fact that they’re the same height means nothing. I guarantee you that PAC outweighs Loma by 20+ pounds. He has to cut to get to 145 while Loma doesn’t even hit that weight when he’s out of camp.
Gotdamn
...................I dont necessarily agree with calling him that but i understand why you think that....
Gotdamn
Carr was much better than Matthysse because he was roadblocked by 3 HOFers. but he fought well against them all. Lucas never reached that level. he couldnt get past Zab who had seen his best days or Devon who was still young and never became a dominant champ. he struggled with guys like Prov. his one chance to become king of 140 and he blew it to a guy that was simply a better overall fighter. if Lucas wouldve been in Oba Carr era, he'd been food for sure.
yeah but Lucas at least ko'ed Peterson..Carr never really beat a real top prime contender..thats where my slight disagreement comes from
Bud aint ready for Manny yet; too slow, gets hit too much.......AB likely would get stopped. It would be a bloodbath if you ask me. He cant handle the activity of Mikey....how he gonna stand up to that type of activity with real speed, power, and unorthodox style? Broner is done, he really shouldnt even be a topic at this point. Manny is a whole nother level than Maidana
Expect for Loma to beat Manny, when he getting into fire fights tasting canvas from handpicked easy work
Axum Ezana
Driving in the fast lane
I have to go with Tyson personally. Also pryor, srr, and roy up there too.
So I'm just seeing the highlights from this fight. What the hell happened when Lucas went down the 2nd timeI saw nothing significant
He got paid, thats what happened.
