    Floyd landed the same overall righthand that knocked Pacquiao on hit rear end and Pac didn't even flinch. SAME exact punch. Mayweather really sat on it too

    We know what to expect from Floyd. But he actually started a little more aggressive than usual. Manny didn't do what was expected of him nor did he do what he and Roach said he was gonna do. When you look at it from that angle how can the blame be placed on Floyd?

    Pacquiao was doing the same thing for most of the fight.
    It was a nonviolent encounter, they were "being nice", just as they had in the build up.
    These guys know how to make the money.

    By throwing even less punches than the man who is supposedly running from him. How the hell did that happen if he was providing all the action?

    Completely different fights. After JMM knocked him down in the 3rd round, Pacman came back like a bat out of hell, knocked JMM down once and by the end of the 5th round, it looked like Pacman was moments away from getting him out of there.

    He got reckless in the 6th, and you could see JMM throwing that counter right many times throughout the fight and missing him by centimeters. Than in the waning moments of the 6th round, JMM finally landed that picture perfect right hand against a guy who really thought he was close to stopping marquez himself.

    I'm not saying he would've gotten KO'd by Floyd, but if he attempted to fight him in that same reckless manner he fought Marquez in the last 2 rounds in their 4th fight, it would've more than likely ended up disastrously for him.

    This guy gets it. Floyd's gonna be Floyd. He likes to do the bare minimum to win. Pacquiao didn't do enough to warrant morr ofence from Floyd. Hence we got what we got

    floyd gets the bulk of the blame because he is the bigger, stronger, faster juiced up guy and he ran like a ***** and hugged for dear life.

    pac had to make the most of 50pct of his abilities having his blood drained constantly and no peds.

    with vada on, run or no run, pac would have finished floyd in the 4th or next in an even playing field.

    pac is already off by a wieght class or 2 (7th div vs. 4th div).

    pac still won if not for vegas rewarding floyd with pitty pat grazing punches.

    no surprise here. garcia hit nothing but air won.

    vegas "easy work".

    He was clinching to force Pacman to reset and than would spin him back into the center of the ring. It's called being a really, really smart inside fighter.

    he wasn't allowing Pacman to get off his 6-7 punch combos. If he saw Pacman coming in, he would either counter and slip to the side or counter than hold. It was a very savvy move by a true ring general, and it effectively reduced Pacman's output significantly. It was one of the many reasons he had Pacman confused almost the entire night.

    Marquez was the real winner in 08 and 2011. That creamy period in the middle is where Manny was peak.

    I mean those 3 wins starting with Hoya and ending with Cotto (even though the Bobfather made sure things were heavily stacked in Manny's favour weight wise) he looked the full package against good opponents who were naturally bigger.

    minus the one time Floyd locked Manny up, calling him a b**** and Bayless had to separate him or the other time Floyd and Manny were clinching and Manny was talking straight s*** in his ear. Or the time, Floyd yanked on Manny's arm and Manny elbowed him at the sound of the bell. :]


    But yes, MayPac2 please
