Floyd easily adjusted to Pac's style, landed hurtful right hands and tuned his ass up

    Floyd ran and potshotted, using his PED assisted stamina to stay way from the ropes. When he tried to mix it up in the 4th and 6th rounds he got lit up.

    Im not a Floyd stan or a Pac**** but facts are facts and Mayweather made him look silly on the night.

    On the other side though mayweather wanted no parts of a prime Manny.

    I genuinley hate this fight because it summed up exactly what is wrong with the sport on so many levels and also made boxing a laughing stock with how pathetic that fight was.

    Um, Roach and Team Pacquiao refused to fight in 2009.

    Pacquiao would have been owned at any times in their careers!!!

    Oh really?
    Pacquiao was semi-shot for the following reasons:
    NB: Semi-shot doesn't mean 'sucks'

    1. Aggressive Style, being well over age 30.

    2. The expiration dates of fighters spending the majority of their career in the lower weight classes is far quicker. Manny Pacquiao was from the Light Flyweight, Flyweight, Bantamweight, Featherweight divisions.

    3. Manny Pacquiao was completely and utterly war torn. He fell from prime since 2010! He had been in so many wars...against ATG's and elite fighters. The Margarito fight took the prime out of Pacquiao. I can't think of any great fighter in the last 25 years who has been in wars against as many great fighters. He looked so lacklustre against Mosley and Marquez. It was consensus that he was fading, and that he had lost the 'killer instinct'.

    4. Mayweather's prime weight was 130 (where he started). His speed, power etc. was greater in those weight classes, he was also younger then.
    Pacquiao actually started at 106lbs (Light Flyweight). 6 weight Divisions from 106-130.
    Pacquiao's speed, power, athleticism etc. was ECHELONS GREATER at the lower weights. Manny Pacquiao hasn't even knocked anyone out at welterweight since Cotto. Pac was Golovkin-esque in punching power before. So Floyd fought the softest possible Pac.

    Mayweather is the naturally bigger man with the considerably bigger frame. I am DISGUSTED he couldn't knock little Pac out, shame on him. To make it worse, he only beat him on the basis of a couple of light jabs.

    5. Pacquiao's killer instinct was already lost, but the KTFO6 by Marquez 3 YEARS PRIOR to the Mayweather fight, had eliminated all traces of killer instinct. He became so cautious. He was no longer the fighter who would take shots from bigger, HARD PUNCHERS like Cotto, Margarito, Morales, Barrera, Marquez and Hatton, to land his own. Pac at this stage of his career couldn't even walk over a featherfist in Mayweather.

    6. Increasing emphasis on pure boxing in his career, especially after being KTFO6 by Marquez. This makes his game more predictable to 'boxers'. His crudeness was decreased, his unorthodox manner of aggression had wilted. KTFO6 made Roach turn a lot more towards pure boxing.
    The very thing that Manny had when prime, was lost. His very threat was in his killer instinct, his ability to take punches to land his own, and his crudeness. All three had been diminished.

    - This is actually a key point in such discussions.

    7. Pacquiao had been more devoted to his career as a congressman, focussing on big boy careers, not mere boxing.

    8. Pacquiao had a legitimate shoulder injury that Ellerbe was aware of. Pacquiao had a bad camp due to the injury, unable to take a legal painkiller, too. The OFFICIAL MEDICAL STATEMENT is that Manny Pacquiao had surgery for a torn rotator cuff, a 'significant tear'.

    9. Mayweather was apparently so dehydrated that he needed IV's (which are known to be used in sports to mask PED use). Mayweather had the T/E ratio of a 128.5 year old man.

    Mayweather is not worthy of much credit for this win over 'number 48'.

    Like everyone who knew boxing predicted, there would be an overflow of excuses once Pac got in there and got schooled

    The 2009 version gets beat even worse than the 2015 version. Pac was far more limited reckless and flawed at that time. He would have been picked apart schooled and arguably stopped by pbf back then and I've always said this.

    Pbf agreed to all terms in 2009 only one fighter didn't it and that was pac. He wanted no parts of pbf or testing back then. Even roach admitted that the reason why the fight didn't happen back them was because they didn't want testing and it was their fault.
