    Floyd did a fair bit of running, and some hugging as well.

    And when he tried hanging with Pac, he found out quickly that he couldn't.

    And the fight was a lot closer than his rabid fans seem to recall it.

    And Pac was the aggressor through most of the fight, so I can understand why he might have thought he won.


    But there is no doubt who actually won, based on the normal rules of scoring .

    8 -4 Floyd.

    7 - 5 ?
    Possible, but that's as close as you can make it.

    He was the one coming forward for most of the fight.

    You can be the aggressor and still lose if you land fewer shots, and this is what happened here.

    Coming forward? I guess the Pacquiao vs Margarito fight was closer than people think because Margarito was the "aggressor "

    Pac one of the greatest fighters probably in any era. was out worked, and literally toyed with by MONEY. It was a master class in neutralizing and then dominating the pacman.

    It was a boxing masterpiece painted in the boxing ring and on pac's face.

    You need to re-read the post you're responding to.

    The reason I mentioned (correctly) that Pac was the aggressor was to account for Pac thinking that he might have won.

    I still scored the fight 8 - 4 to Floyd, for the reasons I already mentioned.

    I scored it 9-3 Mayweather, on replay 8-4 Mayweather. Clear FMJ win.

    Pacquiao won. Gayweather is still insecure about it and won’t fight him again instead fighting clowns while Pac fights Spence a guy Floyd ducked by fighting bum Berto

    why would floyd fight him again?
    he only rematched guys who he didn't beat clearly.

    Pacquiao's fraudulent career has been manufactured by steroids
