    Paciou had leg cramps because he trained and pushed like he was on steroids but this time there was no drugs in his system,so his body couldn't cope on the same training programme,
    Cotto, clotty,bradley Marquez should take him to court

    No. His team has maintained that they are staying at 147 despite rumors like that.

    And once again, they said definitively after he recovers from his surgery that he is staying at 147.

    People say that because they hate him and hope to skew the historical narrative.

    Unfortunately, video evidence exists and peer opinion (boxers, trainers) are endlessly more valuable than keyboard warriors' opinion.

    My advice would be to re-watch it again, you should score it correctly eventually.

    When I rewatched it I had it Floyd 7-5 at best it could be a draw, and that's a stretch.

    So You saying Floyd should of waited till Marquez was a natural welterweight before they fought? If so then you saying Floyd should of fought JMM when he was 40?

    Disclaimer
    I know it sounds like a parody saying 'I watched it in slow-motion', but bare with me.
    I watched MayPac twice at normal speed.
    Floyd Mayweather won 116-112, but I saw a decent case for 117-111.
    No complaints there, decisive win.

    However...

    Watching it in slow-motion, shots I counted for Mayweather before, didn't ACTUALLY land.
    Well, I also found I didn't count some of Manny's shots adequately before.

    Lo and behold, I scored the fight 115-113 Manny Pacquiao. Literally no one can convince me otherwise anymore because of how diligently I studied this.

    My Approach
    1. Watch in slow motion (obviously)
    2. If I had any doubts or questions, I'd go back and re-watch the punch in question until I had my answer.
    3. Even pause at the point where the punch connected (or not).
    4. View the HBO commentary version to hear for the sound of landed punches, as well as get a real-time perspective. (Be able to differentiate the pushing punches made by fighters and their exertion, and actual hits).
    5. View the round holistically as it's easy to get lost in these inspector lens. Other factors contribute to scoring, too as we all know.

    Anyway here's my summary. I don't fully agree with the uploader of these videos but he is pretty accurate and I found he missed both Floyd and Manny's punches on occasion, but again he's pretty damn accurate.

    My Scorecard
    Round 1: Mayweather
    Round 2: Pacquiao (close round but it's Pacquiao's. I don't doubt that - Pac's body shots can't be overlooked, Floyd was running a bit too)
    Round 3: Pacquiao (no way Mayweather won that)
    Round 4: Pacquiao (clear Pac round)
    Round 5: Mayweather (clear Mayweather round)
    Round 6: Pacquiao (clear Pac round)
    Round 7: Pacquiao
    Round 8: Mayweather
    Round 9: Pacquiao (very even in terms of shots landed, but Pac the aggressor)
    Round 10: Pacquiao (pretty even in punches, but Pacquiao was the clear aggressor)
    Round 11: Mayweather - clear Mayweather round
    Round 12: Mayweather - (pretty damn even but I'll give it to Mayweather because it'll freak me out at the moment if I were to give it to Manny, I'll review it again later)

    Relevant rule:
    Punches with no force, or punches to the arms, are not counted at all.
