Stephen "Breadman" Edwards on if Manny Pacquiao was average before 25 and if he can punch anymore

[Newzz]

This is a recent myth that needs to be debunked. Pacquiao was a 3 division champion before he turned 25. He was actually the underdog in his attempts to win the title and he won each fight by ko. He’s the only person in the history of boxing to be the underdog in his first 3 title tries and won each fight. To put a stamp on that he skipped junior bantamweight and bantamweight. Whoever repeats that PAcquiao was average before he was 25 is an idiot.

Next up people say he all of a sudden can’t punch after the Cotto fight. That’s silly. After he fought Cotto which was his last knockout, he fought Joshua Clottey, Antonio Margarito, Shane Mosley, Juan Manuel Marquez, Tim Bradley, Juan Manuel Marquez, Brandon Rios and Tim Bradley.

As you get older you lose explosiveness. That’s proven with everybody. I’m not saying PAcquiao is his old violent self. It’s obvious he isn’t. But he’s damaging these guys big time. Has anyone looked at them after the fights. And the most important factor is everybody on the list has a great chin. In over 350 fights his last 8 opponents have been stopped a total of 1 time at the time PAcquiao fought them. That opponent was Antonio Margarito and he has the best chin on the list. Pacquiao also almost beat him to DEATH literally. To suggest PAcquiao can’t punch anymore without anyone examining his opposition is just silly. I will admit I think he should have stopped Shane Mosley and Brandon Rios but I think that has more to do with slippage than his ability to punch.

Pacquiao is 35 he has over 60 fights and he’s getting older. It happens.

Like I said before, ANYBODY that repeats that stupid shyt that Floyd says about "where was Manny Pacquiao when Floyd was dominating" is a fool and doesnt know boxing. Plus, the opponents he's been fighting do NOT get KO'd, so it's unfair to say "Pacquiao cant knock anybody out without steroids", when the fighters he's been facing all have great chins.


Basically,

No more whoring and gambling killed his fire. Too much bible study and nagging from the wife. Killer Manny is best Manny.

 

[patscorpio]

if there's one thing thats infallible about manny pacquiao is that he can punch and there's more than enough evidence throughout his career thats shows that

 

[InvictusAeternusEternus]

He skipped from 112 (which he lost his title on the scale because he couldn't make weight) to 122 bypassing 2 divisions (115 and 118) not as impressive when you consider these 4 weight classes are within 10 pounds of each other and he was already too big for flyweight

I know he won the wbc flyweight title by KO and the IBF superbantamweight title by tko (but ill count it) but the the third title (wbo superbantamweight) was won by TD. Unless hes counting the wbc international title? Which was a vacant title he won against scrub ass Reynante Jamili

Chatchai Saskul - while I wont pretend to remember or know who was the underdog in this fight, I find it hard to believe Manny was an underdog to a cat who was 5 foot 2 but

Lehlo Ledwaba - was a trash ass paper champ! He won his title from a nobody and defended against weak competition.

that guy didn't prove anything, Vic Darchinyan is a three division champ I guess he's p4p too since he can punch at those lower weights, so if Vic Darchinyan came up to ww brutalizing guys, nobody would think twice about how he's able to do this

yeah manny could punch at the lower weights against other guys with the physique of noodles, he also would get hurt by those same guys, and didn't have that explosives until the Diaz fight when even Diaz was surprised how fast manny was, because at the age of 30, there was already plenty of tape out on manny showing who is as a fighter, and he was a completely new fighter

 

[GzUp]

Too many tuff fights took a toll on him.

The manny that fought cotto was a beast, prime manny right there... That manny shook Floyd.

Breh you trying too hard.

I aint even gotten started yet


You'd be better off going at someone else breh....truthfully


I'll give you a chance though


I AM a stan of Floyd Mayweather's skills and talent inside of the ring. Im on record for saying that over and over thoughout #TheRing and I will say it again. Floyd's the greatest fighter of the last 25 years and as PBF, he's the greatest fighter ever at 130 and 135 and deserves to be on Boxing's Mt Rushmore next to Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Robinson, and Jack Johnson

Outside of the ring, he's a woman beating clown and I cant stand him. He negotiates his victories at the table, never fights an elite fighter in their prime, blatantly ducks opponents, and I also dont fukk with dudes that beat women like he does.

He's a coward, beating and rabbit punching women..... but running from J Prince and his goons at the same damn time


AB can look up to anyone he wants too, what does that mean to me?


My favorite basketball player ever is Kobe and 95% of the NBA looks up to him....does that mean you cant dislike Kobe, because YOUR favorite athlete likes him


And finally, my favorite boxers to watch are Adrien Broner/Andre Ward/Guillermo Rigondeaux/Canelo Alvarez/Julio Cesar Chavez Jr/Julian Williams/Erickson Lubin.....if yall casuals would learn more about the boxing game outside of Floyd, Manny, or Adrien Broner, yall would address me about other fighters as well

So Manny in the cotto fight is prime Manny huh

So you saying at the age of 30 manny suddenly reached his physical peak, hmmm

not to mention Cotto had already been viciously beaten by Margarito

you say tough fights take a toll on manny? What tought fights has he had since the Cotto fight, Marquez gave him a one shot KO

also the last thing to leave a fighter is POWER, everybody know this, Manny's power was not there in his last fight against Bradley because he hit him way more than the first fight, and couldn't seriously hurt him
