I blame Jinkee Pacquiao for this fiasco!

[Spicoli]

Someone must has E.D problems

[ykdadamaja]

Umm being over aggressive and overconfident is what lead to his downfall ... and he said this himself

He was really pressing for the KO when he got caught

There is organized aggression and foolish aggression- he had the latter. He was out of sync.

Ah there we go, so it was HIS fault. Thank you and goodnight

His fault on the life he was leading prior to the fight... which Jinkee disrupted.

I'm going to present to mods/boss that we issue bans - like a spot penalty notice - for stupidity

[christianshreve]

I'm not sure how but I blame David Haye

That is friggin' funny.

It also led to his Hall of Fame career and many championship belts.

You can't come into a FIGHT with the mentality of a sedated cow. You have to come in testosteroned up- raging like a wild fire. She could have caused her husband to be killed, or serious injured- and then what would she do? Spend what money?

Maybe he should have dumped his wife and gone gay. Then he would have been full of testosterone.

[TheBranMan]

*I blame* the fact that they didn't wait for JMM to turn 43 (making Pac 37) for this match. Marquez was picked because they thought that he was now too old, yet he still managed to pull it out of the bag... taking corrupt judges out of the equation.

[Fenster]

If she stopped him doing the only things worth doing in life - smoking, boozing, womanizing and gambling she should be shot. Fact.

If only we could somehow stop them from breeding too...

[TitoFan]

How dare she demand her husband and father of her children to stop fucking other women. Crazy ass bitch!

Think about it. The fight game is about aggression and testosterone- nothing builds up more testosterone than sexual aggression and activity. It's a man thing... when he lost that, he lost his edge. He went soft- started to slip, got lazy and got caught!

If he ain't prepared to rip someone's face off ala Margarito, he should just retire!

And, from what I heard, he always took care of his kids- he just had a wild lifestyle.

Never mind the knockout he suffered.
This is a much more serious issue.

I blame Jinkee Pacquiao (Manny's wife) for this. She tried to tame him down in the months leading up to the fight- threatened to leave him IF he didn't stop smoking, boozing, late nights, the other women, partying, etc... and this is what happens. Pac lost 2 fights in a row.

To be honest, I had Pac winning the fight, by one point. But, he got caught slipping- and this is what happens. KO.

You can't come into a FIGHT with the mentality of a sedated cow. You have to come in testosteroned up- raging like a wild fire. She could have caused her husband to be killed, or serious injured- and then what would she do? Spend what money?

I suggest she allows Manny to go back to his old ways and just suck it up- buy some puppies, get a toy boy, go on shopping sprees and spend his money until he retires. Because, soft, domesticated fighters get beat- and hurt. And no one wants that.

Either that or Manny just retires and focuses on his family. Either way, Pacman should NOT come back into another fight unless he is willing to rip someone's head clean off- it ain't gonna work.

A woman will destroy you at every time man... trust me. If it can't be about them, they bring you down to their level....

This was not Chunkee Pacqauio's fault in the least. Andre Ward is a devoted Christian and lives a clean life and he still mauled Chad Dawson last time out.

Oscar De La Hoya was running around in women's panties and he still KO'd the hard drinking, hell raising, wild man Ricardo Mayorga.

JMM drinks his own piss and he still KO'd Pacquaio !

One does not have to be a sinner outside the ring in order to be a killer inside the ring.

[generalbulldog]

HE's a disgruntled fan that's making up excuses. No different than hardcore fanboys doing the same thing. In fact Mike Tyson's career is nothing but excuses from his fans as being a prime example. Hell when Ricky Hatton lost to Floyd and Manny the myriad of excuses came flying out from his fans.

Just take the loss, Pac had a great run. Hope he retires.

This is a thread within a thread. It is also serious, as most of us fight junkies are just expressing ourselves in these links.
The allegation that a woman gets a fighter hurt or killed is an old one. Stallone featured it in Rocky 2, and there are a few who remember what I'm about to recount.
In 1982, Alexis Arguello was trying to win his 4th world championship against Aaron Pryor.
As the story goes, Arguello's wife committed to a campaign to throw him off mentally. Allegedly, she used every trick and tactic a wife can use with a husband.
I remember a Pryor camp member saying they should have written her a check after the fight. It seemed to resemble the biblical story of a garden, 2 naked teenagers and a serpent: or the tale of succubus; or many other stories, metaphors, or similes.
Jinkee wanted her husband to return to the values most accepted in their family cultures. By public accounts he did so. That this period saw the decline and end of the 5 year p4p reign of the "pacman" may be dead on, or symbolic, or some sort of conformation bias.
I watched a fighter become such a force that his primary competition yielded the pound-for-pound title to him by forfeit. He led the game and his people with compassion and a great straight left.
Will we ever see his like again? It remain unclear.
What is clear is that we haven't seen the last of the debate around fighters and women. How could we? We just have to be careful in our allegations. The ladies are the ones who suffer us beating each others brains in, or feed us in the later stages of pugilistic dementia.
With more women becoming fighters, will we soon see roles reversed? It's already happened. Christy Martin's husband took a shot at her not long ago, and with men playing the support role, our tendencies are bound to surface.
Comments, anyone?

Yeah Robinson was a womanizer and party kind of guy. Its a matter of our very species. The fact that its some kind of excuse for getting knocked out is ridiculous.

[christianshreve]

Perhaps. And being distracted by them is another hallmark of our genre. Maybe it didn't have an influence on any of your matches. My record isn't as good in that department.
I'm not saying it is professional--allowing distractions.
