The action lagged a little bit at the start of the round but Manny Pacquiao was still the clear aggressor with Lucas Matthysse becoming a reactionary fighter.

Matthysse was able to land a couple of hooks to Pacquiao’s body but Pacquiao was still in control of the fight.

Pacquiao’s right hand became a vital weapon for Pacquiao in this round finding Matthysse’s face easily.
