Pacquiao's Knockout Loss: A Sign Of Declining Boxing Skills

Manny Pacquiao's Knockout Loss Is A Sign Of A Boxers Declining Skills

When Manny Pacquiao was knocked out in the 6th round by Juan Manuel Marquez, one question lingered in my head, Is Pacquiao declining in his boxing skills? Pacquiao's knockout loss is truly a sign of an aging and declining fighter. Had it been earlier in his career, Pacquiao would have avoided the punch. He went in carelessly prior to the knockout blow and yet his used to be cat-like reflex failed him when he split secondly didn't react fast enough to defend the punch. This is a sign of an aging Pacquiao. Pacquiao's knockout loss was not a lucky punch by Marquez. It was a sign of a legendary fighter losing his instinct and reflex to defend himself the way he's supposed to. Pacquiao's knockout loss was an indicator for him to retire the boxing scene before further damage occurs to him. Forget aboutt fighting Mayweather. He will give Pacquiao's knockout loss for the second time in a row. Manny Pacquiao's knockout loss was a calling for him to retire.
