    It's beyond pitiful, it's down right disgraceful, especially for a fighter of the decade, and trainer of the decade

    Everyone knows how Mayweather fights, he is good enough to produce enough points to not take much damage or trade punches, his philosophy is 'work smarter' and make money without being punished too much. Castillo, Hatton, Oscar, Maidana and Cotto brought out the best of him. Pacquiao did not, Canelo did not regardless of their ability and potential, they didn't play to their own strengths and impose jack **** on Mayweather. They fight a different way, a more pleasing way to fans, but it's a sport and there's different approaches.

    Pathetic excuse making to try and get another payday, no one wants to see pac get schooled in another boring fight, get someone who's willing to walk floyd down and put it all on the line. At least maidana tried to give the fans an exciting fight, pac didn't give a **** about winning and is now trying to con all his idiot fan girls into giving him another pay day.

    Roach was truly banking on the "his legs are gone" theory.

    Roach is extremely overrated, a lot of people were saying that, and i'm now convinced, too.

    He never turned someone into a champion. He always received good fighters that could go by themself.

    He looked lost and clueless that night. No plan B, not even a plan A for that matter!

    Also, how can you train someone when you have Parkinson, can barely speak and people are scared to throw at you because you should be in an hospital instead of a ring.

    And he still has the nerve to not be humble after that.

    they say it was kind of late because pac team reported it hours before the fight.

    Don't think pac would co e up with this **** with no merit... He's not psychotic, but still doesn't explain the **** poor performance, they should've pistponed or something for a closer defeat. ,

    Without a doubt, Zab did better....**** baldomir did better.

    Mayweather fought his fight, and made manny do the same.

    Yea lets leave out the parts where pac was on the decline and had already lost to Bradley and been ko'd by marquez and wasn't the same fighter.

    before this fight was on the cards and we all thought it wouldnt happen

    "Bradley beat Pacquiao pacman is shot"

    After this fight

    "pac beat bradley pacman wasn't shot"

    Sham of a fight. It looked like a gentlemens agreement where both sides decided to take it easy on the other because they were already getting paid. Floyd left a ton of scoring opportunities on the table, and don't get me started on Pacquiao's "gameplan".

    I've never seen a fight this big that never shook off the sparring match feel. Neither bothered to get out of second gear.

    And, for the record, I still would've picked Floyd to win even if the cuffs weren't on.

    Personally think - and this may sound callous - that Roach only gets as much respect as he does because of his illness.

    He's finished. How long has he had to perfect the game plan for a Mayweather fight? And yet his fighter looked like a bum.

    Makes you wonder if he ever believed he could win - beyond landing a holy grail punch.

    Actually it did show me that a prime pac would trouble Floyd.Floyd would be improved as well though...
