    I can't be the only one that noticed Mayweather sparingly using the right. Where was the straight right lead?

    I noticed it was well. I think he was trying out some new things. Unless his hand was injured going into the fight.

    There was good money on the fight going the distance. Most people expected a stoppage.

    He couldn't miss with the hook so its hard to blame him. It isn't like he was having trouble controlling the pace without the right hand, Juan was terrified of any exchanges and the hook was doing sufficient damage.

    I noticed that also.
    There were very few combinations thrown.

    That's the way it looked. Maybe he carried Marquez, maybe he wanted to get a few rounds in, maybe he didn't wanna risk too much. Who knows? All I know is that I wanted to see it. Maybe his hand was injured going into the fight. :conf

    Wouldn't be surprised if Floyd had some kind of financial incentive.
