    You make it sound like Mayweather didn't land anything.

    he did, come on. He landed jabs and a few occasional right hands. I never saw a left hook.

    He did land, he didn't land much. Most of what he landed were punches that didn't do much, many jabs.

    If you can't see the hard right hands that landed, you're blind. They were clearly making Pac tentative. They bothered him. Even the ones that missed worried him. Yes, Mayweather didn't land a ton. But he still landed more than Pac.

    Mayweather was waiting for Pac to open up. It never happened because Pac was gun shy, scared of the counters. You guys cashed checks with Pac's chin that he wasn't willing to cash. It's that simple.

    Yea, Pac thought he was winning, before he invented the shoulder injury excuse for his loss. :lol:

    You don't need to be an expert, you just two working eyes. I doesn't seem like you even meet that standard.

    Fact is, he landed more than Pacquiao. Controlled the pace and range, 34% vs 19%, CLEAR victory.

    This, the man was petrified of being countered, scared ****less.... The only time he opened up without any abandon was when he had May on the ropes in the 4th, other than that, the counter punch had him shook.

    Count them? They've already been counted. Clean punching is the number 1 scoring criterea and every judge, as well as Lederman, and Farhood all had Mayweather winning by a wide margin. So if Mayweather wasn't landing at clean shots, then what was Pacquiao doing? Even you say Mayweather won. How'd you score the fight for him if Manny was landing the better shots?

    Good point except I think if we are defining terms we are saying that Pacquiao was TRYING to fight. If Pacquiao didn't try to fight, Mr.Money would posture and pose all night.

    Floyd fights like a victim trying to escape before serious harm is inflicted on him... TBE.

    If Pacquiao wasn't trying then Floyd would pick him apart. You guys are so bitter it's actually sad.

    Have a nice day.

    tl;dr - Floyd is too good, change the rules so he might not be as good

    Always said do to their style/attributes that he and Vitali Klitschko were about as unbeatable as it gets.

    Pick him apart?

    You think Floyd would be the agressor if Pac wasn't....:good

    Floyd KNEW Pac was fast and strong. There is NO way he would give Pac the advantage of initiating the fight. Learn.

    Potshotting, running, cheapshotting, flashy-jab- TBE of our generation.

    floyd has freakish reach for his size and uses that to control range, he has super quick reflexes and the best defense in boxing. all that being said he is one of the most boring fighters i have ever seen, he never batters his opponents anymore, never gets them in trouble, knocks them down or out. he never goes for the kill or attempts to do so, he doesn't throw combinations, he is content pot shotting, countering, clinching and flat out running out of harms way. that fight was what i feared most, a huge disappointment with floyd refusing to make the fight entertaining. he pretty much pulled a lara/canelo or trout/canelo but he is a level above those guys so poor pac couldn't land anything meaningful. perhaps pac really did get injured, what happened to the jab, jab straight left? at this point i feel maidana did better in the first floyd fight.
