Besides the financial rewards, why does Pac deserve a rematch? He won 2 rounds.

    You're kidding right.

    a) I was injured, hurt, not myself, I would've fought completely different, only 50%

    b) I sucked, wrong gameplan, he was better


    You think rematch narrative B would sell better than rematch narrative A? Come on

    Reading scorecards using floyd fanboy logic you must think he lost to Oscar and drew with Maidana.

    :huh Floyd 48-0


    Oscar and Maidana fought like men. They weren't afraid to go after Floyd. Pac just :|:|:|, he didn't stay there so I can throw many punches.

    Talking about all the people that ignore the two 116-112 scores cards and just sight the judge who was in the minority

    First watch listening to the TV cast, I had floyd winning 116-112, but I noticed from round 2 on how biased the cast was and think I was skewed. I then watched it with no volume the second time, and had Pac losing by 2 rounds max, but then I saw a couple rounds I thought floyd won in slo mo on youtube and low and behold, it was actually a draw.

    The only proof you need to know this fight was super close was to listen to Floyd Sr. in the corner between rounds. A fighter who's dominating and winning doesn't have his trainer say that stuff and ask if theyre scared and asking what is wrong with them. Floyd Sr was constantly upset at Floyd Jr. LOL

    Floyd fans seem to ignore this fact.

    Yea, real domination :lol:

    Any time Pac wanted to be in Floyd face, he was there. He made mistakes, and he tried to outbox a guy who knows how to score off inactivity.

    I understand you're a big Floyd fan, but you have to look at this objectively.

    morteti 118-110, two judges 116-112, Lederman 117-111, Farhood 118-110. 118-110 is just as likely as 116-112. Most people had it 117-111 and that I can see. 116-112 were obviously swayed by the $4M cheering section paid by Excusequiao. If we had a fair audience, Im sure the judges would have been unanimously 118-110. I'm glad the judges didn't let the audience sway them too much.

    You seem to ignore the fact that Roach had nothing to say in-between rounds. Floyd Sr was trying to motivate Floyd to go for the KO. Roach knew he had a lost cause from Round 1! Who is in denial? You only want to read between the lines when it fits your agenda. Did you see Pac hurt in between rounds too? :rofl

    Sr. was trying to motivate Floyd by telling him he's a coward. Priceless.

    In any case, I don't get how these threads disguised as a rematch discussion but really are created with the sole intention of bashing Pac are not removed into the May 2 trash receptacle. "He won 2 rounds." I mean it's too obvious. If someone starts a thread about how Pac won 7-8 rounds it will be immediately moved to trash but when someone says "Pac won 2 rounds" something even the official judges do not agree upon, it hangs in the front page for days. This is just BS really.

    One could argue his career speaks for itself and we deserve two fights, one could argue he needs to bounce back first and get in line, one could argue a fight with BOTH of them fully fit (Pac shoulder, Floyd hands) and Pacquiao with a better strategy and without unimpressive excuses and a Mayweather looking to put more punishment on him would be twice as good as the first.

    I hate floyd but ive watched the fight a couple times and i just dont see Manny acting like someone who is dealing with an injury. its never mentioned in the corner, he doesnt wince and he doesnt seem to be laboring or shaking the shoulder. I really cant say for certain that he wasnt injured but i dont recall seeing any signs that he was. I dont see a rematch being any different than the original.

    My fav was when Sr. sounded really disappointed and said, "Floyd Mayweather losing man. . ."

    And Floyd looked so shocked, "I'M LOSING?????"

    It was hilarious, lol. Sr. did great that night though. He pushed his son.
