Jose Sulaiman asks Manny Pacquiao to focus ([Only registered and activated users can see links])

If this is true, then I predict that Pac loses a close decision to Barrera. This is going to be another case of too much partying & not enough focus.

Even if it's true, I still think Pac stops MAB easily.

As much as I admire Pacman, I actually believe that he will be his own worst enemy from now on.

I predict PAC will blow up soon, he will be fighting Ricky Fatton next or Vargas.

If he doesn't be careful, then yes, he will. What is going on now reminds me, to a lesser extent, of Mike Tyson in the late 1980s/early 1990 when he was losing focus. Barrera, if he still has it left in him, can pull the upset.

If Barrera actually wins, all the "Pac fanatics" will use this excuse to death before giving Barrera his props...."Oh Pacquiao wasn't 100% focused, if he was he would've knocked him out in the first 10 seconds. Barrera got lucky he wasn't 100% focused.".... i can see it now.

...please give Barrera his props IF he pulls it off and don't use this excuse to taint his victory.

what partying are you talking about? pac doesn't go to parties. its the hordes of people who comes and watches his training thats affecting his focus.

Funny how people resort to these conclusions...he has relatives to take care of, people he owes for bringing him to where he is now, roach is one and pac still listens to him, others that supported him in his fights long before he was famous. Pac is a guy who feels indebted to these people and he cant just turn his back on them. We dont know if these are the same people that causes Pac's distractions but he just cant say no. It may not be that easy for him.

Lets hope not. I think at this point he still beats MAB, but if he gets in with a JMM or Guzman and does not give his all then he will lose.

Can some one outline what is up with Pacquiao - is he travelling back to the Philippines a lot, distractedby previous tilts in politics, what is the source of his distractions and how real are they?

Pac's latest training distractions really negative to those who believe he could win again over MAB. But if he continues to falter on his preparations before fight night, sure it is possible the end result will favor Barrera, or even worse a KO lose.
