Pacquaio won, but why didn't he do what was working early?

Slowed down? His footspeed and handspeed were out of this world... he looked so dominant early, but I truly think a body shot really disrupted him, but that usually only lasts a round or two for a guy of that caliber.

Yes, PAcquaio really slowed down. Compare his other fights with this one. He may be fast compared to other boxers but compared to his prior fights before, he's slower.

Pac slowed down from body shots guys.

From what I saw his workrate was the only thing that slowed down, his handspeed was as fast as its been, I don't think any southpaw, except Zab Judah, has ever thrown a left cross faster than he was behind those jabs.

Have you seen all the fights of Pacquaio, Taeth? coz I really detect some slowing down in there. He may still be fast but I still believe he slowed down.

Could his sudden increase in weight affected his speed? Remember from 129 to 147(?)....

[Taeth]

I definitely think his footspeed isn't hte same as it was at 126 and lower, but thats more becuase he has bulked up, and hits harder as well. Mayweather doesn't have the same footspeed as he used to more because he added size then anything else. I think p4p Pacquaio is still as fast as he has ever been, he was light on his feet, he was really quick, but he didn't use his speed offensively, and though he is good defensively, he still needs his offensively arsenal to dictate the pace and help his defense out.

he made the fight harder on himself, he could of ended it at the 3 or 4th round.

i somewhat agree on that bro. Reps on your way if possible.

did anybody notice jmm hanging on the ropes at the end of round 3? coz by a boxing standards that could have be KD #2. i guess he let up at round 4 but thats due to jmm counterpunching. good job to both of them. like i have been saying before, both marquez brothers are good but they have something in them that you cannot train for no matter what. they have weak chins.

had the knockdown happened earlier, say, 2 minutes before the bell, Marquez would have surely been down big time. Pacquaio could have won it early.
