My Pick

Ring legend Pacquiao is now 40 years old and will climb through the ring ropes with a record of 60-7-2 with 39 Kos. He’s still an excellent boxer with fine skills and speed, but Pacquiao’s power hasn’t been evident for quite some time even with the stoppage of Matthysse. His last KO victory before that was eight years earlier when he stopped Miguel Cotto of Puerto Rico in the 12th round back in 2009. Still, his knockout ratio currently stands at a decent 57 per cent, but he can’t really depend on his power to be the difference maker anymore.

Pacquiao’s chin has held up well since Juan Manuel Marquez landed the perfect punch on him in the sixth round back in December of 2012, but he’s been stopped in three of his seven career losses. Since he’s been on the canvas a few times during his career he needs to keep his focus at all times and make sure he doesn’t leave himself wide open for a Broner power shot. His key to winning this fight will be his speed and chin as he’ll need to strike quickly and move out of range.

Pacquiao stands just over 5-feet-5-inches tall and owns a 67-inch reach. He’s boxed 462 rounds since he turned pro back in 1995. He has tons of big-fight experience against the best in the world after winning world titles in eight weight classes. Pacquiao has simply faced all the top boxers of his era and has lost just seven times. Like himself, a good number of his past opponents will be ending up in the hall of fame and this is what makes him a boxing legend. He’s fleet of foot with great hand speed and controls most fights with his right jab, stinging left hand and lightning-quick combinations.

The 29-year-old Broner is a former four-division world champion at junior lightweight, lightweight, junior welterweight and welterweight. He’ll climb through the ropes with a record of 33-3-1 along with 24 Kos. Broner suffered his three defeats at the hands of Mikey Garcia in 2017, Marcos Maidana of Argentina in 2013 and fellow American Shawn Porter back in June of 2015, who all beat him by 12-round unanimous decisions in the welterweight division.

Broner possesses enough talent to be an elite boxer, but his maturity level, attitude and work habits could all do with a lot of improvement. He keeps promising fans he’s changed, but they’ll have to wait until Saturday night to judge for themselves. Broner stands just over 5-feet-6-inches tall with a 69-inch reach and possesses excellent speed and good power under as well as plenty of pro experience. He’s fought 223 rounds since turning pro in 2008 and has a current knockout ratio of 63 per cent.

Broner’s beaten some good opponents over the years such as Daniel Ponce De Leon, Jason Litzau, Eloy Perez, Vicente Escobedo, Antonio DeMarco, Gavin Rees, Paulie Malignaggi, Carlos Molina, John Molina Jr., Emmanuel Taylor and Khabib Allakhverdiev. He may have plenty of problems outside of the ring due to his idiotic actions, but he’s still one of the best boxers inside the squared circle at the moment and can’t be taken lightly by Pacquiao.

Prediction…

The difference here could come down to work ethic and heart and this is usually where Broner lets himself and his fans down. Broner’s career seems to be on the downswing, but a win here would put him back in the picture. Pacquiao is the more naturally-talented boxer, but that doesn’t guarantee anything as we saw in his loss against Jeff Horn in 2016. He’ll need to work hard for all 12 rounds with speed and movement and make sure he doesn’t get tagged directly on the chin. Pacquiao needs to get out of the gate early and establish his power and rhythm by letting his hands go as often as possible to keep Broner on the back foot. Don’t be surprised by any outcome here, but the most likely scenarios appear to be a Pacquiao decision or a Broner stoppage. I think Pacquiao’s style should be good enough to take a decision as long as his chin holds out.

This is a 50/50 fight, but it’s hard to go against a legend like Pacquiao.

Adrien Broner betting • Manny Pacquiao betting

After his impressive and dominant victory over Adrien Broner on Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, what did we learn from Manny Pacquiao? And will he get a second shot at Floyd Mayweather?

The PacMan is still very good

Don't let the official scorecards fool you. While they read 117-111 and 116-112 (twice), these tallies are actually very generous for Broner, who was hurt badly in the seventh and ninth frames and by the end of the night was in survival mode.

No, the PacMan isn't in his prime, and he's no longer the dynamo he was from 2008 to around 2012, when he was rampaging through weight divisions in what was a historic run. He is still an incredibly difficult fighter to defeat, though.

Pacquiao (61-7-2, 39 KOs) was simply too fast, too quick, too powerful and ultimately too savvy for Broner (33-4-1, 24 KOs), who began the night by trying to lay counterpunching traps on Pacquiao, who never bit. And soon Pacquiao's straight left hands to the body began to set up power punches over the top. His consistent feinting offset Broner's timing.

Outside of a highly controversial decision loss to Jeff Horn on Horn's home continent of Australia, since his 2015 loss to Floyd Mayweather (and more on him later), Pacquiao could easily be 5-0 in his most recent bouts.

Age is just a number

Yes, Pacquiao is at the tail end of his Hall of Fame career, but his performance on Saturday night had Sean Gibbons, the matchmaker for MP Promotions, stating, '40 is the new 20.' Well, that might be just a slight exaggeration, but Pacquiao still has incredible footwork and gives angles to his opponents that defy logic.

Still, the key for Pacquiao in training is the realization that less is more.

'At the age of 40, the strategy, the training routine is the same but a little of adjustment for preparation, especially for the recovery,' explained the most notable senator from the Philippines. 'I'm not young anymore, so sometimes if I push myself in heavy training, I cannot recover in one night, so I have to rest to get my body to recover.'

Also he seems to have a heightened ring IQ. His aggressive style was once susceptible to counter right hands -- now, with his use of feints and being disciplined behind his jab, he is a much more elusive target.

Pacquiao would like another shot at Mayweather

So after defeating Broner, the question is will he get Floyd Mayweather in a rematch of their highly disappointing 2015 showdown that was much more sizzle than steak? While Mayweather is happy in retirement, Pacquiao, in the sunset of his career, has continued to face young, fresh foes like Broner, and thrashed them.

While many will roll their eyes at the possibility of Mayweather-Pacquiao II, you get the sense that many in the sellout crowd of just over 13,000 on Saturday night believe that a second go-round would be different with a healthy, two-shouldered Pacquiao.

'My message is I'm still active, if he wants to go back to the ring, challenge me, I'm a champion,' Pacquiao said at the postfight media conference. 'Get back to the ring and we'll fight again -- if he wants. But right now I will ask my promoter, Al Haymon, PBC [Premier Boxing Champions] for the future fights, the next fights.

But that possibility was shot down earlier by Leonard Ellerbe, the CEO of Mayweather Promotions.

'He's [Mayweather] retired, he has no interest in doing that,' he stated. 'It's not always about the money, believe it or not.'

Well, given that Mayweather's moniker is Money, it is actually hard to fathom.

'[Floyd] doesn't have the motivation, the desire, he's living his best life, traveling, running his multiple businesses, spending his hard-earned earnings,' Ellerbe said. 'He'll be 42 come Feb. 24, and enough is enough. What good does it do you to earn all that money when you can't stick around and spend it?

'He's had a phenomenal career, he broke all the records, he has nothing else to prove. I'm very happy for him.'

Broner is going to be Broner

It turned out that there was only one thing bigger than Broner's hubris in promoting this fight: his delusion. As the bell sounded to end the fight, 'The Problem' celebrated as if he'd won, which brought about a negative reaction from most fans in attendance.

And like many others in the city, he doubled down.

'My performance tonight talked for me,' Broner said as he addressed the media after the fight. 'They thought I was going to come in here and be in the mud, and they were just going to f--- me up, and I gave them what they weren't looking for. If you ask me -- I thought I won the fight.

'I'm not about to sit here with a sad face, I'm all right, I will be back and be champion again. ... At the end of the day I'm still AB, I'm the same person.'
