    Floyd will never be loved by the fans like Pacquiao is. As relieved as Floyd must be, it must hurt him inside to see how his "hometown" was overwhelmingly pro-Pacquiao.

    Floyd will never be an all-time great like SRL or Ali, the people loved those fighters with all their heart. Fans were dying for a great fight, and this one *almost* delivered.

    Can't get the official win so they try to go for the moral win.

    Who cares? Pacquiao lost. Nobody ever remembers the loser. It wasn't a competitive fight.

    Floyd has $500 milllion reasons in the bank account not to give a fck about if the fans love him or not.

    You don't need to be loved to win more rounds than your opponents.

    People remember fights. People remember Hagler Hearns not by who won but how much of a war it was.

    Sure it was. It was an even fight through 6 rounds. And the later rounds were very competitive.

    It's getting beyond embarrassing now. Some of the other posts I'm reading are bordering on mentally ill.

    Don't think Floyd cares. He just made a ton of money to keep him happy
