    For the retirement fight of the best fighter of his generation?

    Yeah, I reckon it'll get a few buys

    Mayweather didn't throw any big shots, just "touching" shots. He's too cautious for that.

    Of course he thought he won.

    The sore loser tag is horse-****.

    He was gracious with JMM and Morales, but he believes he beat Floyd.

    And all the talk of him being overmatched, outclassed, schooled etc, is equally horses-****.

    He was the aggressor for 95 % of the fight. On the two occasions where Floyd tried to take the fight to him (at the urging of Floyd senior), Floyd quickly felt his power and decided to stick to the winning formula, run and potshot. Pretty much how most had predicted the fight would go.

    Floyd initiated all but one of the clinches and , in Pac's yes, ran for most of the bout. Pac landed the harder, more telling blows.

    This led to him believing he won. It didn't help matters that Roach told him he was winning at the ends of rd 10.


    All that said, I scored the fight 8 - 4 to Floyd.
    And I don't believe Pac's injury was much of a factor in the fight.

    7 - 5 wouldn't be out of the question, and neither would 9 -3.

    But I can see why Pac thought he won.

    Fighter? what fights has he had? fights do just that, they fight, he runs, hugs and pot shots often missing.

    Best fighter of his generation is between Calzaghe and Pacquaio, I shade it to Pac simply because what he did was remarkable even down to being shot and half fit to outbox Floyd as he did was incredible.

    So Pacquiao gets to be Pacquiao and Floyd has to be a white British guy with 4 losses and the same skillset... ?? Does he at least get to keep his persona or will you completely change that too?

    Mayweather was scared to walk pac down he even said after the fight he HAD to box him smart

    Pac hits very very hard everytime Mayweather stood with him he would lose the exchanges.......................

    NO one has really backed up Pac up ever

    I give him credit he landed one big shot, I winced as I saw it coming but Pac just walked straight through it and answered it. That was the end of the fight and the start of the marathon.

    I doubt it will be lower than his Maidana fights even if he picks an opponent like Garcia

    You embarrassing yourself by mentioning Calzaghe, Pacquiao didn't outbox Mayweather, are you delusional?

    Just making a point, being a black American in America has protected his career.
    Pac has done things in-spite of his nationality

    Marquez backed Pacquiao up. Mayweather even had him back peddling once or twice. It's not a bad thing to back up, you claim to know martial arts & combat, you should know this!

    And of course Floyd has to box Pacquiao smart, Pacquiao is an ATG with an awkward offense. I don't see what the problem is.
