Pacquiao stopped watching replay of fight after fourth round

According to Pacquiao, he turned the fight replay off after the fourth round because he was re-injured in the round and was inhibited of winning afterwards.

I guess he feels anything past that point is not worthy to watch because he had to abandon his game-plan and, as he said, resort to a miracle one punch KO that never came.

Pacquiao also says Mayweather knew about the injury and kept yanking on the injured arm in clinches.


Lol!!! If this injury is true, I'll laugh so hard. Like of course this would happen in the freaking fight of the century.

 

haha! he knew how bad it was the rest of the way so he refuses to watch it :rofl

 

He won rounds 2, 4, and could've easily stolen the 3rd? I had the fight 3-3 heading into the 7th

 

Well, majority of the people who scored the fight had it the same.

Fight was over. I knew this would be bad after how horrible the first round was. It was horrrrriiibbbbbllleeeeeee. Even Pac's corner had no idea what to tell him.

 

Pacquiao, "I'm not convinced of my performance was like that. I want to... nothing. If I were to grade my performance last night, I was at 60%. My mind wanted to do more, but I couldn't. Outbalanced because I was just relying on my left. I was preoccupied with it [the pain]. I want a rematch if he wants. I wasn’t 100% ready for last night because of this shoulder but I don’t want to use that complaining that I lost the fight. I’m just accepting the fact that I lost."

He's really playing this up. Maybe he's telling the truth. Manny doesn't usually lie, and it's not like he was throwing the power jabs and right hooks. They really weren't there in the fight. Regardless, it's his fault knowingly walking in under 100%. Just a stupid, stupid mistake to do against the best fighter in the world. He really thought Cotto, ODLH, Margarito would be easier? He has no idea. You don't have to be hurt and hit a lot to lose a fight. As he found out, you can be outboxed.

 

I believe they weren't positively sure what round it was in, but they knew it was early. Manny said, "The combination in the 3rd round" so I think meant the big combination in the 4th round because there was no combinations in the 3rd.

But yes, Pac's legs looked more shot than Floyd's, lol. His stamina was awful! He may have thrown less punches in the later rounds due to the injury, but either way, he still looked tired straight out the bell. I know his legs are better than that. He was too flat-footed, too slow. I wonder if coming in at 152 caused him to be heavier on his feet.
