    but those girly jabs barely, IF AT ALL, even touched Pac's face or body! The people considering these 'punches' are criminals. How the f can you reward someone a soft jab, that touches gloves and MAYBE grazes face with the softest touch. All those jabs shouldn't have been counted.

    You are in the ring, the guy extends his arm, touches you softly for 3 minutes, you are chasing him non-stop whilst he runs and round to Floyd? Then re ****s call it 'impeccable'

    I really don't think you understand the various usage of a jab. :-(

    Like I said already, those weren't meant to deal damage. But they were landing and they were protecting him from Pac's flurries, Pac couldn't throw those flurries because that arm was already extended. It was that useful.

    Also, May was calculating and always knew where to throw that right. He had Pac in his range at all times. :deal

    he had his moments but far and few between. A lot of the jabs were barely making contact with Pac's gloves, if at all, face or body. It's a crome to consider these 'punches'. At least Wladimir;s jabs are piercing and hurt opponents.

    I didn't like floyd before the fight, still don't. I was indifferent towards manny as a person before the fight, but afterwards with all his excuse making I now have lost a lot of respect for him, plus the fact he cheated on his wife multiple times.

    For the most Part Floyd was fighting smart he didn't want to fight Pac's fight by walking him down to often which was very smart he simply out boxed him.

    how many good rights did floyd land? 3-4?

    pac did the most damage, too far and few between but the he landed hardest shots.

    i know exactly how May used his jabs, more to sort of measure distance and almost push Pac off but those shouldn't be counted. Only jabs that should be counted are jabs that he gets past Pac's gloves and actually moves Pac's head back slightly, as Klitscko does. If a jab BARELY, AND JUST BARELY, makes contact, this is touching, not punching.

    In the first 6 rounds, there was a round where commentators counted like 10+ jabs and i was like, wtf, what jabs are they counting?

    Why couldn't Manny walk through those "pillow" jabs? What was he afraid of?

    British sensation? He was a journeyman and a shot one at that he was schooling Mayweather too, but corrupt Joe Cortez helped Mayweather throw Hatton into the turnbuckle before he gave the USA another embarrassing night.

    However we had the last laugh when we sent Calzaghe over to expose Joe Cortez as the cheat that he is in the Hopkins fight. Showing him reffing by a different set of rules. But not even Hopkins and Cortez in a handicap match was enough to stop Joe Calzaghe :nod

    I think it was to do with Floyd keeping him out of rang and his skills.

    Nope. Floyd landed the harder and better shots that night.

    Manny landed 2 left hands.

    Stop counting those flurries!!! He wasn't landing **** with those flurries, just kept hitting gloves all night. :rofl

    cause Floyd was quick... did you not notice? DLH has a better jab than Floyd, why couldn't he stop Manny? cause manny was too quick. Floyd moves well, i'll give him that. People are giving Floyd way to much credit for those jabs that barely made contact, if at all. They are also giving Floyd way too much credit for his 'hard' rights. Of course Manny didn't want to rush in recklesslesly but Floyd was really moving well, always keeping his distance.

    :lol:

    Lots of excuses up in here. Hatton was by far the biggest name in boxing in the 2000's aside from Lenny!!!

    When May knocked him out, that was amazing.

    May was just astonishing that night. :admin

    he landed big body shots with the flurries and manny dd land a couple of solid right hooks too.

    Floyd landed 4 solid right hands at best.
