One of the more interesting things about last night’s bout in Las Vegas between WBA welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao and Adrien Broner perhaps wasn’t so much for me about Pacquiao’s superb technical and tactical performance, but the sheer physicality he displayed at 40 years old. They say that the power…
