For most of his fights in the last seven years, Manny Pacquiao has been a big favorite; many times, an overwhelming favorite. Fights were clearly seen as being in his favor simply because he was so good, and so far ahead of the pack -- or at least the pack that he was fighting.

But it’s 2016 now. Manny Pacquiao is 37 years old. He lost his last fight. He’s 3-3 in his last six, even if one of those losses (to the man he faces Saturday, in fact) was so controversial and so widely considered a robbery that few really count it against him. Pacquiao also hasn’t fought in 11 months, and he’s coming off of shoulder surgery. And -- and! -- he’s seen as having one foot out the door, which for a boxer can be a massive difference-maker.
