    I wouldn't be proud of guy cries injury as soon as his beat.

    I wouldn't be proud of myself for choosing to fight with an injury, conning the fans and then acting like a sore loser afterwards. Each to their own.

    It was flaring up, which could have taken the turn for the worse.

    It's still an injury and still should have been disclosed to NSAC.

    The fact of the matter is, it got significantly worse missing big wide shots vs Money.

    Well said.

    No excuses. He chose to fight on his own volition, he knew the risks and he thought he could win.

    You can't have it both ways

    1. If I win, I'm great because I won with a weakened shoulder

    2. If I lose, I lost because I had a weakened shoulder

    ROFL

    It's pathetic!

    He didn't look any more shot than Canelo did against Mayweather. I guess Canelo is over the hill, past prime, and shot too. :nut

    Idk. He looked great against Algieri and was a wounded animal against Floyd.

    Soooo, idk.

    Also, he looked slow in the fight against Floyd, to me at least. His footwork was gone. He looked too heavy. He did appear VERY shot May 2, but I think there were a lot of external factors that caused that to happen.

    As Ariza said, he's still in there.

    Pac's style relies heavily on speed, constant movement. Less so than JMM, and Mayweather. Both of those guys have styles more suited for longevity. Pac doesn't have the fundamentals to fall back on as much.

    He's shot, but age has nothing to do with it. Different styles have different shelf lives, and Pac's style is the type to usually burn out even more quickly than he did.

    Only thing that seemed off to me was his lack of footwork. This is what made pac special. Not standing stationary and flatfooted, but for some reason he does this vs. Floyd!? Makes no sense at all.
