    JMM just went in with a game plan to exploit a LIFE LONG weakness of Manny's and executed it perfectly.

    He'd already knocked Manny down with the same punch mere minutes earlier... 'Once in a lifetime'... lol

    Unpopular and unsubstantiated are two very different things...

    Cassius Clay

    Secretly wanted to be a Lieutenant in the North Vietnamese Army.

    He liked the dress-outfits, and the big Officer hats.

    The first knockdown was an overhead right that clipped the top of Manny's head as he was going back.
    The second knockdown was a straight right that Manny walked onto so much that he nearly swallowed it. and like I said before once in a lifetime mistake by Manny.
    'same punch'... lol

    Right hand through the middle.

    You can be a pedant over the specific type (in this case it was a short right hand, almost a hook... but unlike you I won't be a pedant over your naming of it as a straight) but the fact remains that the same vulnerability has seen Manny eat dozens of dozens of RIGHT HANDS...

    Overhand, short, straight, cross... Doesn't matter the type, he's very open to the right hand down the middle and ALWAYS HAS BEEN.

    The reason I quoted the specific type was because YOU said that they were the same punch. if you had said that Pac leaves himself open to being caught by a right hand, I might agree.
    My point was that the first knockdown happens to a lot of people, the second was so careless by Pac (much more so than normal) that it looked terrible. However, I don't see it happening again in a hurry.
    at least I can safely say that I got this thread right as my opinion is pretty unpopular.

    seeing as my last few got some attention, here's one I forgot.
    The relationship between Frampton and McGuigan will end in tears!
    As soon as Frampton sees that his career is the secondary priority behind McGuigan making as much money as he can for himself and his family.
    I guarantee it will get messy!

    Cassius Clay

    Stated that he wanted to become an Astronaut.

    He did ask though, was he required to have a 'valid' Drivers License to drive a Rocket Ship.

    When visiting NASA, Cassius looked inside the Apollo Capsule and asked;

    "Where is the steering wheel."

    Yup. That's why the lead right is the most common weapon against south paws. All those right handed shots you listed come from the same spot, no matter what the path. They're hidden behind the Orthodox fighters lead shoulder as he blades his body. Its already left the gate and is on its way to you by the time you pick it up as a southpaw because your lead shoulder is lined up with his. If he loops it or hooks it, it may buy you more time because you'll pick it up a tad earlier in the body language, than if its coming across his body. Marquez trained to throw that shot over and over again. He packed on the muscle too so it would do the most damage when it landed. Silver bullet, planned, practiced and executed.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    Don King put together the best overall fights cards.

    Manny's 8 divisional champ status is purely political; How else does a dude win in 8 different classes weighing between 138-147 dating back to Morales fight one?

    Prime Roberto Duran stops prime Pacqiuao & JMM @ LW.

    Corrales-Castillo was completely ruined by the ending. Corrales should have been disqualified for spitting his mouthpiece out to buy time when he was out on his feet. The wrong guy won.

    Was there a rule put into place or something after that? The Corrales mouthpiece rule?
