    Mayweather lost to Pacquiao according to every foreign commentators in you tube and yet only here in the US thinks otherwise. Out of curiosity, I invited a few friends and tried to dissect the fight. After watching the fight, we were confused and was trying to figure out how in the world could you win a boxing match without landing anything significant and was not really trying to hurt your opponent. Mayweather fans especially on this site stated that Mayweather dominated Pacquiao on this fight. I just don't see how May won this fight at all.

    Mayweather fans are probably the worst type of people. These are the same people that think he dominated Maidana in the first fight. Boxing is a sport scored by rounds, where a guy can win 12-0 and barely win every round, or can win 7-5 and dominate 7 rounds and barely win 5.

    Point being, the Pac-May fight featured rounds where neither fighter did a lot. It's possible to have a 9-3 card for Floyd, but he didn't do much. Pac landed the better punches but also didn't do much. The fight was close and competitive, just not exciting. Don't let teh morons like MVC or any other black supremacist on this website tell you otherwise.

    yup. floyd fans accept blatant corruption and cheating so long as their idol is declared winner. they justify every wrong doing and criticize foreign players if they do the same. the cancer of the sport.

    It was much more competitive than given credit for and was pleasing to my eyes because both fighters showed a tremendous amount of talent and skills.

    It was a chess match that fmj obviously won but far from dominated pac. Fmj dominated by winning so many rounds but almost all the rounds were close.

    Rounds 1, 4 and 11 being the only really non close rounds. Still those 3 were competitive rounds just not very close.

    People have to get over it, the build up was always going to leave it falling short,unless both men nearly killed each other, the hype murdered any chances of casuals liking the ultra talent mixture

    Pac's cuts from the third Marquez fight made the fight closer than it needed to be for Pac
