    All 3 judges had the match close, in a Mayweather promoted event. 116-112, 117-111, 114-114. That's a Close Majority Decision by definition. The judges obviously saw what happened whereas the public did not, as the commentators and press were slobbering over Mayweather all night, and thus had a bias that prevented them from seeing how close it was.

    It's a no win for Floyd, come back and fight a prime champion at 160, even if Floyd pulled off a win, he wouldn't get proper credit for it.

    No more Floyd Mayweather

    Boxing is better off without him

    This is a hard question to think about, this is the thread I like. Floyd fought a lot of experienced champions back at his time, Canelo on the other hand didn't fight as much as Floyd did. I don't like Floyd but here is my decision...................

    If they ran it back again, Floyd would be dealing with a monster in the ring, it's going to be war!

    43 year old former welterweight boxer mixing it with one of the world's better p4p prime aged fighters (who by the way is bigger), just no.

    God, I hate when people say Canelo was too green for Floyd. He was the 2nd best junior middleweight at the time with 45 wins under his belt after defeating 2 ranked junior middleweights in Austin Trout and Ryan Rhodes. At this point, whoever says this are just salty haters.

    I only agree Pac should fight Spence or Crawford if he continues to hold that WBA title. If Pac wants to fight lesser fighters like Garcia and McGregor, then give up that title so Spence and Crawford can fight for it and unify. Remember when Mayweather was still fighting, he was 40 and they were calling for him to fight Thurman and Porter.
