Pacquaio was electric last night. Best performance since Margarito imo. I think he has a couple of fights left.

It's kind of like a boxing tradition for boxers to retire and then come back again, but then Pacman is going into politics, like Vitali and Valuev, so maybe not.

Looking back, as much criticism as Floyd got for fighting Berto for his last fight, I am surprised Pacquiao has not gotten similar criticism since he beat the guy convincingly in most peoples eyes before. Who in the hell wants to watch a trilogy when you know what the outcome will be?

He will be back. He'll be broke soon enough.

I think Pac didn't get much criticism because virtually nobody believes it's his last fight. Plus it's a little different when you're coming off a loss

He didn't do anything special. He wasn't even at his best. He is just that good.

Floyd II or nothing. Hopefully they both stay retired.

He was at his best in a way. The combos he threw and the speed/accurscy of the left is still as good. The difference between now and his prime is wofk rate imo. He can't sustsin his assaults like he used to.

His footwork is mesmerizing.
