I think he's decent, especially in comparison to Merchant.
If you can get past the slight dementia-speak, he has some good technical thoughts from time to time.

Thought Emoji Movie was good. Take that as you will.
After 2 losses, and the other shit Manny has going.. I think he walks at this point.
The Floyd fight has lost it's luster, so Manny really should just hang them up.

Marquez/Bradley is next......
unless he tests positive for the juice, then we have an excuse for Pac/Marquez part 5.

It was a cake walk. Go watch the fight. Look at stats. Pay attention...
Anyway, that's the end of Pacquio's career. Too bad. I was hoping to see Mayweather send him off in
shame.
would you like it after Arum gets his cut?
Yeah, me too. When you: A.) say that you're going for all out the KO vs your tactical rival and anything else would be a failure, and B.) last had a knockdown over a year ago against Mosley (who is currently aka everybody's punching bag), it doesn't bode well. In the ring he was the mouse that got a cookie and asked for a glass of milk.
But damn, did not think he'd go down like that. I hope he retires, because he's done. It sucks that the Floyd fight never happened, but realistically they're both past their primes anyway.
This is what we are looking for btw
Wow he went the fuck to sleep.

I don't mind him. He reminds me of back when Foreman used to call fights. Wish they'd put Max on full time though, and only let Merchant do the post-fight interviews.

Keep lurking
Mayweathers post prime is still better tgan anyone else in the weight class. Dudes power may be shot, but his speed, reaction speed, technique and defense is top form.

I'll register soon brah. You have no idea how lazy I am.
Scary that he was like that for nearly 30 secs.

Depends on what's more important to him. Going out on a high note(but not on top, especially with Manny coming off a loss before this fight), or getting at least one more guaranteed big payday. His value just rocketed higher than it probably ever has been, assuming he passes the PED tests.
Totally reminded me of this
LMAO I've been meaning to rewatch the show. Miyata is my guy

Hey, I know. I guess I was being too simple but I didn't find it to be necessary to give an analysis on that fight at this time. It went all the way so in one regard, it wasn't easy.

As a Filipino I'm not even mad... mainly because I understand how boxing works. But dammit, I am still kinda salty as shit about this. He had the fight, but he had to walk in that fncking counter punch... 
Anyway, I think this is over for him. He's doing way too much in his life that he's losing his focus on boxing, not to mention the issues that are starting to come up thanks to the loss.

This was one of the more brutal ones I've seen. Manny was out cold before he hit the ground

His style will always work. A boxer like Pacman can't fight nearly as long as someone like Mayweather.

He'll probably pick Bradley just to say that he beat both guys who beat Pacman.
If not Bradley then he'll have to pick Guerrero or Alvarez. Not sure who else there might be besides those two.
That's true. The fight people wanted to see was these guys 4 years ago, not now (well, certainly not now). Still would've been the cash-in of the century, but from a fan's perspective I think it would still leave a lot of "what ifs" if they were to have fought past their primes.
It's all out the window now, though.
DAWT! Roy was one of the smartest fighters (coupled with his unrivaled physical gifts). His insights are quite good.

Wow Manny.
This should make it more obvious that his fate would've been similar in a fight against Floyd, for those that didn't already know.

lol. As if anyone, including Bradley himself, believes he beat Pacquiao. That shit was a straight-up Arum setup to cash-in on a rematch between 2 fighters that he promotes. Unfortunately for him, it was too fucking obvious, and no one wants to fucking watch Bradley in any high profile matches anytime soon.

Well, if Mayweather isn't careful and goes on for too long, then he'll probably end up facing the floor too.

Roger Mayweather wants Bradley to be the next opponent for Floyd. It's most likely happening.
