For Manny Pacquiao fans, the best-case scenario heading into his Dec. 8 clash with Juan Manuel Marquez was that he’d conclusively beat Marquez, preferably by KO, and then hammer out a deal to meet Floyd Mayweather in the spring. Things went off the rails, though, when Pacquiao got dropped and stopped in Round 6 by a counter right hand by Marquez. He hit the canvas like a sack of flour, and was out of it for a while. That sight scared people, and some Manny-iacs found themselves wondering if Pacquiao should, at age 34, hang up the gloves and concentrate on politics in the Philippines full-time.
