    No one watches fights in slow motion. People just pretend to.

    Watching a fight in slow-mo is pretty insane. If people really do that they probably need some different hobbies

    Everything he said has been documented.

    - Pac re-injured his right hand in round 4.

    - Floyd injected a illegal IV the night before the fight, which could have masked PED use.

    - The referee let Mayweather get away with multiple fouls.

    - The judges scorecards were way off.

    Many who saw the fight in slow motion were looking for an escape because what they saw in real-time betrayed their narrative.

    Dude they don't hate American boxers. This was not something to do with racism but the boxing system where the results of the fight got twisted.

    117-111 Mayweather and it’s more obvious he won every time I watch it

    I only needed to watch a few minutes of this guys video to see his bias. I then quickly went to flick through the Canelo GGG 2 fight and he does the same exact thing. His punch stats are not 100% accurate either, he constantly diminishes punches by Floyd/Canelo and calls them slaps, grazing amongst other things.

    Yet for Pac and GGG he never does. When Floyd/Mayweather pulls their head back and takes most of the sting off of a jab, it would reduce the damage even more so than the so called slaps Artorias is calling. Yet he never brings it up.

    Can you argue that the fight was close? Yes. However Artorias is just as pathetically bias as you are. You should consider changing your name from boxingintegrity, to boxinginsanity.

    Why are you crying like a baby Astorias just presenting how Spanish boxing analysts view the Mayweather vs Pacquiao fight and and for them Pacquaio actually won the fight because Mayweather did not do enough to win the fight and pacquaio landed more punches.

    Majority believe that Canelo lost to GGG twice. Astorias analysis matches with what the majority beleives.

    Yes he does.

    I've even seen him score rounds for Pac's opponents that most scored for Pac. The first round of JMM vs Pac 3 for example.

    Na, you're just using silly logic. Replay in tennis was not always used, would you have applied the same logic then?

    Take another example, racing. Imagine before cameras were used people just guessed which horse/man/car won the race if its very close. If the judge deems car A won the race but upon re-examining video of it, car B actually won the race, there is obviously a disconnect between truth and whats awarded.

    As I said, one is a matter of opinion, the video is a matter of fact. No one is arguing that Pac "officially" won, which is what the judges score. The people arguing for him are saying he "actually" won, which is a different claim.

    This isn't even a Pac or May thing. IMO it's similar to saying a boxer cheated but a ref never saw it, then replay shows them putting chemicals on the gloves, well ye they cheated, it just wasn't seen. I don't see what is difficult to understand about this.

    I'm saying it's silly for two reasons

    1) a boxers job is to impress the judges in real time

    2) no one, even those arguing about it, sits there and watches a full fight in slow motion. They repeat what they hear but they don't actually sit there with a pen and paper and count punches.

    Actually as a third point very very few truly believes Pacquiao won that fight. They argue because they are fans, but if the boxers were reversed they would make the reverse argument.

    Again, no one watches a fight in slow motion.

    We would have been treated to a much better fight if Pacquiao hadn't torn his shoulder in camp....and that ripped it in round 4 or whatever it was.

    I remember Roach trying to spin the press over cutting sparring out during the essential 4 weeks of camp. Something about needing rest. At the time I assumed some terrible flu but he didn't look sickly at all.

    Roach also noted that the eschewed the heavy bag in favor of the mitts entirely. That was another bad sign.

    Once Pac climbed the ring at his heaviest weight ever (to this day) of 152lbs looking soft I knew the game was over.

    Floyd actually threw more punches than Manny in that fight. Whole thing was a joke.
