    Floyd won; I didn't think the fight was boring, but I thought many of the rounds were pick ems off of the aggression. Salido CLEARLY beat Rocky ... and it was a draw with all score-cards close. how does Floyd get the benefit of the doubt in EVERY close round, ever? Berto on activity probably deserved about 4 rounds, honestly. Floyd did a lot of nothing for huge stretches of time, completely different from a Canelo-Floyd performance where he was clearly in control the entire time wherever he wanted to be. Floyd looked very very sharp in spots, but he no longer controls pace like he used to. I can't believe a judge gave him every round.

    He also wins rounds on body language, Berto was dejected many times during the fight...and his corner with Virgil Hunter was hilarious with Hunter yelling at Berto to not let Mayweather clown him like that!
