    I don't get mad, I get facts and then ram them home.

    End of the day a blown up half fit Manny who has been on a sharp decline since 2010 still beat a prime/protected Mayweather, no amount of spin can nullify the facts.

    You saying Manny won is a opinion(minority) not a fact.

    This is some ridiculous logic "he hits hard enough. .. a regular in shape non professional fighter would hit "hard enough " to keep anyone at bay. Floyd simply put doesn't have power for a professional elite level boxer

    Life is too short to be watching replays of fights in slow motion. This isn't going to change the result of the fight. It's not going to make me feel sorry for Pac either. He's loved and adored through out the world, a living boxing legend, and tons richer than me. It's a boxing contest, not a life or death situation.

    There is a simple solution to this. Do not watch Floyd Mayweather. Nobody is forcing you to watch him. There are plenty of fighters and fights out there that are better suited to your preferences.

    Utter rubbish. Floyd didn't look bothered once even when Manny was throwing some weak a$$ combinations Floyd just repeatedly shook his head and said 'no'. Hardest punches were landed in the 11th round and all of them landed on Pacquiao's dome.

    None are so blind as those who will not see. I just watched that slo-mo round for lulz and Floyd clearly landed more.

    And Manny finally got warned for his repeated ducking below the waist, for good measure ... and also initiated several clinches.

    That's your evidence? A round that in slow-mo shows even more clearly that Floyd outlanded him?

    You count PPV buys the same way you count punches, LOL. Guess you think Manny landed more because you're counting punches from the undercard?

    What a maroon.

    I doubt people have woken up to this nonsense and people will still be suckered in so I doubt his numbers will suffer that much .

    Anyhow I watched it the first time on a Russian TV channel and couldn't understand what they were saying. I had it 9-3 the first time around and when I watch slow mo replays I just see the same thing. Both fighters had low output and didn't land much. Mayweather won most of the rounds by landing a punch or two more and controlling the tempo of the fight. Remember there are 4 criteria for scoring rounds, not just punches landed.
