There is concern aired by some fans of Manny Pacquiao that his next opponent, Mexican former champ Oscar Larios, is a dangerous opponent. Well let’s have a little look at history from Ringside Report.

The first three years of Manny Pacquiao’s career (1995-1997) he fought an amazing 23 times, with only one of those being a loss. The last time Manny won a decision was on September 13, 1997; which moved his record to 21-1, 13 KO’s. Since that time, “Pac-Man” has had 23 fights-two draws and a loss to Morales. That leaves twenty victories. All twenty of those have come by way of stoppage. If that does not sound impressive enough, or you think maybe his competition was not that good, the combined win/loss record of those twenty contestants is 590-72-14. For all of us statisticians, that is an 87% win ratio.

We don’t have to talk about Larios’ records to see if Manny Pacquiao can beat him. Manny’s records tell what will happen to Larios.  Needless to say, Manny has confirmed that he’s going to train in Freddie Roach’s Wild Card Gym.  Larios should prepare seeing stars in the morning of July 2.
