    He needed 760ml. Simple miscalculation.

    Mayweather and Pac are the same size. Mayweather is taller and rangier, Pac is thicker especially in the lower body. Mayweather is old and has brittle hands. He didn't need a KO when he could put on a boxing clinic.

    Mayweather is undoubtedly thicker and has a bigger frame. Bigger frame does not mean taller and rangier.
    Pacquiao's ring age is prehistoric.

    But, but, but! :| Floid almost KO'd a healthy and undefeated Cotto at 154 (his best weight class). :| And Floid was jucied to the gils and chopping wood! :| Floid never wanted to win a fight so bad in his life! :|

    The reason why Floyd didnt get the KO is because Pac settled for the decision loss
    It was 10-2 in rounds if Pac tried to win more he would have got ktfo simple

    I agree. It's not like Pac was coming FORWARD all night while Floid was moving BACKWARD.

    :lol:

    What are you saying? Roided Floid threw more than Pac and couldn't crack the already shattered chin? Is this what you're saying?

    Lemmie get this straight...

    Floid was clearly training for power by pushing tractor tires :lol: and chopping wood :lol: and he STILL couldn't get the KO stoppage over a tiny, shot welterweight w/ T-Rex arms and a shattered chin? :lol:


    A Juiced TBE couldn't do something that a 40 year old Mexican did? :lol:

    Only read the title and was kinda shocked and mildly dissapointed by the question. I believe anyone with half a brain understood the dynamic of the fight before the boys even entered the ring. With that predetermined fact I think most boxing enthusiasts also envisioned a sharper more defensively sound fighter vs an offense minded juggernaut, it was obvious after several rounds whose tempo dominated. Pac is awesome one of my favs however he was never in any lifetime the cerebal operator Floyd is/was and I'm unsure as to why it's so difficult to accept that. Oh yeah he didn't KO manny he just outclassed him in an uneventful mega bout.

    You're describing the fight if it had happened in 2009.

    In 2015, when it finally happened, Pac had been violently KO'd at the tail end of his career, was injured during camp, and we saw the size difference when they finally came together.

    Throw in the fact that Floid was juiced and shared a significant size advantage, any result less than a KO was a fail for Floid.

    The size difference was marginal and in all honesty trivial a worthless advantage when attempting to use it as the threshold that separates a KO from a UD win.

    As much as I admire Pac as a warrior he was never as complete as Floyd and I for one envisioned something very similar to the reality of the fight. At no point in their respective careers did Manny have a distinct enough advantage as a boxer to win vs Floyd and Floyd being the defensive minded counter puncher in the relationship was never truly prone to stopping Manny. Why force the unlikely and impractical when you can find success by exploiting your enemies weaknesses,….read the art of war enlighten yourself and embrace the truth don't ignore better yet stop fighting a pointless fight.

    Disagree, your interpretation of a "real warrior" may differ from others but it doesn't determine who has dictated the result of a fight. Floyd has gone to war with some so called warriors and has basically outsmarted them I still can't see how a fan of combat can't respect someone that nullifies your greatest advantages…..he might not be your cup of tea and I for one enjoy a nice blood bath but to ignore his skill set means to ignore the sweet science.
