    No rematch is what i'm most happy about, Pacman just didn't throw enough and wouldn't in a rematch either, he had a chance 5-6 years ago but that Manny is gone. 118-110 Floyd. Floyd did what he does, what he always wants to do, for me Pacman was a huge disappointment. Not as bad as Canelo but almost.

    Floyd is 38 years old.

    Been boxing since he was in diapers.

    You guys knew how he would try to win this fight.

    Roach and Manny did too.

    Why didnt they prepare better for it?

    Floyd's boxing is just on a different level.

    Call it for what it is. Never seen a fighter control the ring like Floyd. Ever.

    They both did to be fair and I thought the fight was close. Realistically though, Mayweather's style will make anyone look old and sluggish.

    Mayweather dominates Pacquiao and all anyone can say is "he ran and hugged!"

    I had it 8-4 FMJ, at best for Pacquiao.
    9-3 would also be fair.

    Mayweather did what he had to do.
    I always said this was how he was gonna win, use his legs to control the distance and then clinch when he can't.
    I don't get the disrespect he is getting.
    He was all class and a humble when announced as the winner, gave Pac and his team their dues.
    And in the ring he showed his heart and dominated the championship rounds.

    Pacquiao had his moments, true, but his greates downfall is the same of Canelo's: thinking he can outbox Mayweather.
    While it's true that he was almost better off the counter, he should've thrown more.
    I knew he is gonna need a KO to win the moment round 1 ended. He was simply too tentative.

    Pacquiao is and will still be my man, but you got to be naive to not acknowledge that H2H, FMJ is simply better than him.
    And Pacquiao thinking he won was pure comedy. I was a bit embarassed to be honest.:lol:

    They both looked old.. a younger Floyd would have beat that Manny last night like the Marquez fight... there were shades of that.. but no where near that dominate.

    The thing is Floyd has a tendency much like Wlad (yeah I went there) of making his opponents so frustrated and basic because of defense and reach. Every says well if the opponent would have tried... the thing is they did.. they get frustrated.. they can't land and they can't get off because they can't find their spots.
