When Manny Pacquiao was winning his boxing titles, he was being lionized as the great Filipino who brings honor and pride to his fellow Filipinos. Now he was down, he was physically down from a knockout punch from Juan Manuel Marquez in that shocking loss in Las Vegas--and his fellow Filipinos are no more than vultures hovering over his helpless body.
Review the tape of the December 9, 2012 boxing match--he was careless, as he said it, toward the end of round six when he got hit by that punch that came at the nick of time.
All things being equal, Manny is still the best in his class. No other Filipino could accomplish his feats for a long time.
Anyway, he is still young at 34 compared to Juan Manuel Marquez, 39. He can still vindicate himself and be boxing king again.
