Just Saw Again That Boxing Bout on TV Where one Fighter Seemed Inhuman?

Even the ring commentators described him as like machine. He hardly sweat and breathe hard despite following and punishing his foe from the first round until the fight was stopped in the last round. Punches, including flush shots to the face seemed to just bounced off him. One of his ear was busted though due to some punches that landed in that area. yet, he was never bothered by it. His body and legs remained firm and steady despite the rigors of chasing and constantly moving around the ring. After the bout, he even celebrated with a party and he was reported to be still up and about till wee hours the following morning. How would you explain that?

    LOL. That was Manny Pacquiao against Cotto back in 2009. Pac as usual would do that videoke inside the bus as if nothing happened. And just before Manny's bday (Dec 17 i think), they had that celebration in Gensan and as you put it, till 'the wee hours'. Nah man, enough of that PED brouhaha. Manny was something special and he was a lot greater than your favorite fighter Flash Elorde. Let me explain it to you where Manny got that unbelievable strength. Does the floating hammer in the Gensan river ring a bell? Manny kept that up and everything that followed, as they say, is history. LOL my friend. Take it easy on Manny shall ye? Manny beat Cotto and prime for prime, i still will say, Pac will beat Cotto. Floyd actually watched that bout a couple of times too and he was simply amazed!

    EDIT: Teddy, that was IMPOSSIBLE. I dont know where you get that info but here's exactly what happened back in November 2009. The comment box wont allow as much character so let me use the space instead.

    Right after the bout, Chino Trinidad (GMA network aired that in RP) tried to reach Pac for the interview and ofcourse Manny obliged. The conversation lasted barely 20 minutes as Manny's body was beginning to tremble due to the body punches thrown by Miguel in the bout. Pac rested for a while in the locker and was CT scanned after for precautionary measures. I guess you remembered it right, Pac had indeed busted his ear. Prior that interview, Cotto was rushed to the hospital. Chino never had a chance to talk to him. But both men were cleared.

    From the hospital, the Pacman team (ofcourse with Bob) boarded the Pac bus to get back to their hotel suite. It was in that bus that the so called "concert party" happened. Remember, it was already late in the night when they got out of the hospital. Yeah Pac sang his favorites as if in concert and as if he never fought Miguel Cotto..INSIDE THAT BUS, till the wee hours the following morning. But remember too, they were TRAVELLING. Upon getting his room, Pac fell asleep like a dead man. There was no "concert" held other than the one i stated if we're talking about one held just after the bout.

    One month passed, Pac, already in the Gensan Philippines, celebrated his bday (his bday is Dec 17), this was the real concert party, with many guests, celebrities alike. Manny did stay late from dusk till dawn. (DEC 16- 17)Oh boy, Manny was unbelievable. But it was clear, the guy you talked too mangled these facts

    Source(s): Floyd: I fought Cotto and he.. (Manny) just beat Miguel just like that. Ya know what im sayin'??...Blah, blah, blah,,, My health is more important?? LOL

    Scientific explanation, hilarious. Here is the scientific you were asking, Why is it that even those people who used PED still loss. Vargas is one of them who loss to ODLH. If PED will make a person inhuman, why is it that in-spite of them using it, it didn't give them an advantage.

    You have such a very fertile imagination. PED will make somebody inhuman. A comic relief. Is that the reason why you came to the conclusion that Pacquiao used PED? Is that what makes Floyd win, the Xylocaine that numb his hand, the reason why you want a special gloves for his fights?
