First off, respect to Pacquiao because he beat a top p4p fighter convincingly so he showed he still has a lot in the tank. Bradley fought a retarded fight, but that's not Pac's concern, he did what he had to do and got the W over a fantastic fighter.
That out of the way... holy shit has Pac slowed down. Everything: his movement, his handspeed, his reflexes. He doesn't have the pop he used to have. His balance looked really bad at several points in the fight, whereas a few years ago he had the fluidity of movement like very few have ever had.
If they fought in 2010, I think Floyd would have won but it would have been an extremely dangerous fight. 2014 Pac? There's no way. This guy is going to get eaten alive. I don't know what happened to him... maybe he's cycled off the juice over the last few years, who knows. He's still fast as shit and a problem for a lot of the top WWs, but he's not touching Floyd now. He missed his shot. He should have took the $40 million and the drug test in 2010 when he had a real chance.
