    We should all applaud Floyd for his gallantry, and him not allowing this foolish talk of an " injury" to tarnish his one sided victory.

    I guess he was never scared of manny all along as these pacturds would have you believe.
    He fought with two sore shoulders, and two brittle hands, and still emerged victorious.
    I guess he never really feared for his health, and manny seemed to get over his fear of needles at the same damn time.

    Nor me, I paid just £19 for the fight and would not pay for a rematch.

    I fee the same way. My god, the whole thing repeats itself now. Just when I thought it was over. I let out a sigh of relief when Floyd won because I thought the boxing world could move on. But now it's chapter 2. This was planned by the both of them during that hotel meeting.

    Easy Money. I don't think the public would be as interested though.

    Yeah, clear cut victory and all that...then they just make up an injury, sickening.

    The injury did not cause Pacquiao to be flummoxed and embarrassed, I concede he was 75% from what I saw but it would make NO difference fully working shoulder or not. Mayweather has awful hand issues and I have no doubt he wasn't exactly 100%. Pac was throwing vicious right hooks still, we've seen other degrees of shoulder injuries by boxers and they could barely lift their arm to parry... if he approached it with those suicidal tactics, he gets beaten 9-3 every day on any planet. He can't wait and can't do anything at that range. It's like he was planning not to get knocked out and banking on being faster than Floyd... play to your strengths and why everybody agreed you are potential krptonite... I will always believe these two are finely balanced, it's whoever adjusts when they are both fighting perfect fights... so I wouldn't mind a rematch but would rather Pacquiao earn it beating Maidana, Marquez or Khan first.

    I think it's something like that too.
    I think Mayweather might have "carried" Pac, and Pac might have "carried" Mayweather.
    Hey, neither of them was hardly marked up at all. There was a lot of moving, not much fighting.
    There were hardly any punches landed. Pac stunned Mayweather once, maybe twice, not badly, but he backed off. Mayweather dominated Pac in only one round, the 11th, I think, but backed off.

    Of course, I think the injury is probably real, but it doesn't explain how the fight unfolded. I think Pacquiao is almost shot, I think Mayweather's in serious decline too. But none of that explains the sheer tameness and "fakery" of how the match played out.

    In the old days, the referees would have thrown both men out for "faking". It was that kind of fight.

    THE MONEY for this fight was HUGE.
    I mean, it was paradigm-shift in financial rewards.

    You misjudge the people, I think.
    The hype will get 'em, you watch. :lol:

    I'd rather see this rematch than Floyd fight anybody else to be honest. Let them have their rematch and then both retire. No need for either of them to fight anybody else. They cleaned our their divisions together. No need to go back and start fighting the new guys.

    Let them fight, Floyd will beat him again. Maybe, just maybe Manny can shock us all like it looked like he was on his way to doing in that 4th round. And then we all and boxing can finally move on from these two.

    Do you really think that this farce would end with a Pac win?

    The public would be all over it. It's the only 2 boxers they have heard of fighting eachother.

    I remember the mistake Lennox Lewis made when he had a two-fight deal with Mike Tyson, but he gave Tyson such a bad beating in the first fight that Mike didn't want to come back for second helpings.

    Of course, he sued Tyson and got a load of millions, but probably lost out. He could have earned more if he'd done the job right.

    What Lewis should have done was coast to a very boring slow 12-points decision over Tyson.
    Then Tyson might have come back to do the whole thing again.

    Mayweather is the SMARTEST businessman-fighter. He knew to make sure it was a slow easy fight for both of them. Was Pacquiao also in on it ? I don't know. Maybe.
    Either way, the whole thing is a scheme.
