Walang naging malaking epekto kay eight-division world champion Manny Pacquiao ang dalawang magkasunod na pagkatalo kina WBO welterweight champion Timothy Bradley ng United States at Mexican Juan Manuel Marquez na aniya’y nangyayari naman pagtuntong sa lona ng parisukat.
Sa panayam ng BoxingScene.com, ipinaliwanag ni Pacquiao na hindi makakaapekto sa kanya ang kabiguan sa ibabaw ng ring lalo’t nalalapit na ang laban niya sa Nobyembre 24 sa Amerikanong si ex-WBA lightweight champion Brandon Rios sa Macau, China na itatanghal ng HBO Pay-Per-View.
“My two previous fights, though both officially losses, have not had a huge impact on me. Though I accept the judges’ decision I still do not understand their decision to score the fight against me when I fought Timothy Bradley,” pahayag ni Pacquiao. “I was the aggressor throughout the fight. You can clearly see that by mid-fight, Bradley stopped engaging with me because he couldn’t keep up with me and take the punishment I was giving him. So he decided to run from me.”
Naniniwala pa rin si Pacquiao na dapat na siya pa rin ang nanalo sa laban kay Bradley kung hindi sa maling pag-iskor ng mga hurado sa Las Vegas.
“If there is a lesson to be learned from that fight I guess it’s not to take anything for granted. I thought I won the fight then and I still think I won that fight. If your opponent doesn’t want to fight, the judges should also take that into consideration. I never felt that I lost that fight. The media and fans never considered that fight a real loss,” giit ni Pacquiao. “Compare those feeling to the reaction Bradley faced from the same people. He certainly did not get treated like a conquering champion. Those are his words not mine. As for me, it did not really affect me and I was eager to move forward.”
Sa pagkatalo naman kay Marquez noong nakaraang Disyembre sa 6th round knockout, umamin si Pacquiao na nanggigil
siya at gustong patulugin ang Mexican kaya nagkaroon ito ng pagkakataon sa isang lucky punch.
“For my fourth fight against Juan Manuel Márquez I was determined to end our rivalry with finality. In training camp — and it was one of my best camps — I was focused on being able to dominate Márquez from the opening bell,” dagdag ni Pacquiao. “I trained hard in camp to attack him from all angles. And though he had his moments early in the fight, I knew I was beating him as the fight wore on. I felt the momentum coming my way and I was hurting him badly. I could see it and feel it.”
Ayon sa Pambansang Kamao, nakita niya si Marquez na patuloy sa pagatras kaya nagkamali siya sa pagiging agresibo.
Gayunman, mas naging malaking leksiyon kay Pacquiao ang matagal na hindi pagboboksing kaya ganado siya ngayon na muling ibalik ang kanyang kasikatan.
“The biggest lesson I have learned over the past year has not come from my losses to Bradley and Márquez. It come from being out of the ring for nearly one year. – Gilbert Espeña
