What shocked you about Mayweather vs Pacquiao?

How good Ariza shakes are.

Honestly, if anyone still doubts that Ariza was instrumental in Pac's phenomenal ascend to boxing olympus, they are clueless.

Mayweather at 38 was stronger/faster/more agile than himself at 30.

 

How mayweather was afraid to engage a fighter that was 3" shorter 15 lbs lighter.

 

What shocked me the most:

1. Pacquiao standing there in the first round. I thought he was going to force the issue immediately.

2. How bad both Pacquiao, and his corner reacted after the end of round 1. They felt like they had no chance 3 minutes into the fight.

3. Pacquiao's weight.

4. When Manny steps back in round 4 and lets Floyd get out off the ropes.

5. Manny's post fight interview, and the whole press conference from Team Pacquiao.

 

floyd faster than pac and at 38. makes you go hmm:think

 

I believe the shoulder excuse, I'm I. The ph right now, and they kept showing him in a sling a month out on dmz channel, the news station here. I peak very little Tagalog so I coukdnt make out what they were saying. That said, he should've never gotten in the ring if it was that bad. He looked line ****. Fully heald shoukder, I think he still loses, but damn.., not that bad.

 

Wish I could agree, even floyd didn't look that good... But manny lomed lije rios out there. I credit that to floyds tactics, and manny.

 

[sarcasm]what surprised me was floyd running, clinching, pot shotting and counterpunching his way to a decision.[/sarcasm]

where was the jab, jab, straight left?

 

You can get on with that Mayweather slight cause he looked good. You trying to rub some of Pac's disappointing performace off on Floyd. It won't work.

 

pac could be 40 for all we know, kind of like how dominican baseball players tend to lie about their age.

 

I think someone on here said it best. Both fighters were fighting like they didn't want to lose- not win.

I think a rematch would be such a better fight. I think they would look more comfortable, a lot less pressure, they have the experience and more time to comfortably train. It won't be rushed, forced. I think we would see a much better performance from both fighters. They owe it to us.

 

Mayweather doesn't owe anything, it's Pacquiao who didn't do his thing. Floyd did what he always does. Neither will take risks in a rematch, because Floyd felt Pac's power and Pacquiao felt what was going to happen if he became offensive.

 

Confused. Did Floyd look great to you? He landed one of his worst percentages, rarely committed, threw one of his lowest amount of punches of his career. He got hit kinda like the way maidana did in round 3 like 4-5 times. To me, he looked maidana-like and I was expecting him to look like he did against Canelo. Don't get me wrong, he looked good but I was expecting great.

Manny was on another level of bad, I just don't know like he looked how he did against Bradley 2. But worse. So flat footed no footwork feints nothing.

I feel like they both could've done a lot better.

 

Floyd doesn't owe us. Yes. Pacquiao does. He owes us fans his country etc a better performance. That's why if Floyd gives him a rematch, he needs to thank him for the rest of his life.

 

Floyd is slicker and smarter then i thought.

 

How pedestrian Floyd made Pacquiao look. Boy against man.

Manny put up historically bad numbers in terms of punches landed on Mayweather over 12 rounds.

Was also surprised to see Pacquiao wanted no part of Mayweather's straight right. He tasted a couple in the first round and that was that, he was not willing to take some to give some.

Floyd made him bashful, Pacquiao bottled it.

So much for "War Pacquiao".
