    They also wrote down Lidocaine, Cortisone, Toradol, and PCP as medicines used up to fight. So either they accidentally checked the box no or they accidentally wrote down 4 medications for an injury.

    This was a very good fight, err, boxing match. These were two boxers trying to outthink each other's next moves. It wasn't much of a fight, but still very good and competitive nonetheless. Saying Manny won two rounds is just for those who are biased for Floyd.

    Out of curiosity, All the talk about Mayweather running and hugging, etc.. etc.., don't trainers teach their fighters how to cut off the ring. Did Roach and Pac, as well as everyone else who has followed Floyd know and understand that he is a defensive fighter first and that there will be a hug possibility that he would make it difficult for Pac to hit him?

    Roach said he had studied film, and knew Mayweather's weaknesses and that they had about 6 years to prepare for this fight, and now some of you want to hit up the internet blaming Floyd for boxing like he has done for many years now. I don't understand.
    In conversation before the fight, I heard many guys at work stating that Pac was TOO strong, TOO fast. My question was TOO strong and TOO fast in comparison to whom?

    I told them strength will not have anything to do with the fight. They refused to believe that and now they are all sour claiming Mayweather ran.

    Why didn't Roach and Pac prepare for this? It's funny that Roach has been so quiet during this whole ordeal. Why not ask him what went on in training.

    Roy Jones wasn't even Top 5 in money per fight. He earned less for John Ruiz than Calzaghe earned for Kessler.

    Calzaghe tried to get the big American fights, he was courting Hopkins in 2001-2002 and a deal was done, only for Hopkins to pull out of it.

    In the case of Jones Jr and co, they actually left money on the table by not becoming more worldly.

    According to Aguilar, they asked for Torodol alone - which has been in news as a "Feel like Superman for three hours, walk through crushing concussions" drug - there was no way that was going to be accepted.

    Where is this qoute? Do tell because from every other person, I've heard it was a ****tail shot that consisted of three numbing agents- one which was Toradol.

    Toradol increases your risk of brain hemorraghing, but it's stil allowed. It's allowed by USADA, so that is something you'd have to complain to them about- not Pacquiao. I haven't heard anywhere that the DRUG was the problem. Pacquiao's doctors, including USADA, okay'ed it. The non disclosure was what made the commission decline. That's what I've heard Aguilar say. Nothing about the drug though.

    He claims he's TBE, but lets be honest. He's no Sugar Robinson and doesn't have that type of resume. He never fought a murder's row like Leonard, Hearns, Hagler, Benetiz, etc. He's a great fighter, but I wouldn't say TBE.

    What do you say? I think top 5, but no TBE

    How does he fight the murder row if they're all retired ?

    He fought everyone from our era. Mosley coming off a devastating win over the one who was considered the most dangerous WW, Cotto who seemed invincible, Pacquiao who's fast & trow combinations, Corrales who was the ''tall puncher'', the golden boy De La Hoya, one of the hardest puncher at WW with a huge heart Maidana ...

    What more can he do ? Lineal champion in 4 division, 5 division world champ, undefeated in 48 bouts...

    The only way you can label it a dominating win for Floyd is if you give him credit for landing a lot of punches that, on closer inspection, were blocked or deflected by Pacquiao, or otherwise came up short/missed the target. Fact of the matter is they both showed great defense and very little offense in there, and several rounds were razor close in terms of meaningful punches landed. I've no issue with Floyd getting his hands raised though, in the end Pacquiao didn't do enough to win the rounds conclusively.
