The most nervous and scared Mayweather looked during a fight?

If I could I would. even that would be a better fight than Berto vs mayweather.

 

Maidana 1, he was potentially 5 rounds down halfway through and cut from a cunning headbutt and getting battered, had very little success early on but pulled out a commendable performance, I scored it a draw.

 

He looked pretty worked up against Ortiz. He probably felt a lot of pressure to perform well. And I think he was out over a year before that fight...so maybe a little ring rust.

I'm sure all these guys are nervous. They are performing in front of thousands of people. I don't think he has literally cowered in fear and couldn't perform against any of his opponents.

Someone like Tyson actually had guys literally scared in the ring. GGG has that same effect on some guys.

 

So what's the problem with watching the fight in slow motion? It gets ridiculed on here for some bizarre reason. Why do you think they show slow motion replays of incidents in all sports? To get a clearer understanding of what actually happened because the original incident was unclear.

In the case of Mayweather-Pacquiao watching the fight slowed down shows a hell of a lot of Floyds jabs did not land.

 

The original incident wasn't unclear, I've watched that fight back and give Manny 3 rounds... some guy at badlefthook had a brilliant revisiting of the fight and actually scored it even less for Pacquiao than he did on fight night, 118-110 he said and GIVES EXPLANATIONS IE REVIEWS EVERY ROUND IN DETAIL It's a very good read, I would be interested to see somebody who thinks Manny won more than 4 rounds do a detailed round by round like this so we can appreciate why they think this way.

It reads completely fair and objectively. Read it and see what ya think.
Two examples of a round for each;

'Round 6
Pacquiao throws heavy shots, but nothing lands, Mayweather blocking them all. But a straight left does clip Floyd, and Mayweather starts to move again. Pacquiao throwing, Mayweather pops him with a short right counter and moves again. Mayweather ties Manny up, and again, he definitely pulls on Pacquiao's right arm. Floyd looks for a check hook, not quite there. Pacquiao lands a body shot, and he's got Mayweather uncomfortable again in this round. Not that Pacquiao is doing a lot, but he's doing more, and Floyd's constant holding shows that. When Floyd gets moments, he does try to get his right hand working, but Manny's avoiding it better. Left hand from Pacquiao lands, and again Floyd is on the ropes and covering up. Pacquiao batters to the body after missing upstairs. Mayweather shakes his head and says "nope," but there are facial expressions he has that always tell the story with him. Floyd doesn't have the best poker face, but he generally doesn't need one, either, so whatever. Mayweather poking with his jab again. And again, something that simple cuts off Pacquiao's offense. That said, this was a Manny round. Pacquiao 10-9'

'Round 8
Floyd flicking the jab, Manny rushes but doesn't land. Manny does touch Floyd with a left, but not much on it by the time it got there, as Floyd's head movement took any steam off of the punch. Pacquiao trying to work, but having trouble finding a consistent attack. He does land a nice left hand, and then a good body shot as he gets Floyd back to the ropes, but he leaves the flurry there, and moves back to the center of the ring. Floyd steps forward and jabs at the body, steps on Pacquiao's foot, and there's a right hand from Floyd a moment later. Pacquiao gets Mayweather to the corner, spins right out. Hook from Mayweather, which is what Sr wanted after round six. Pacquiao gets a little right in, but he's off balance and there's nothing on it. Again, we're seeing Floyd in control. You can see Pacquiao constantly over-thinking things, I believe. And Mayweather controls when he makes opponents think too much. That's when he knows he has them beaten. Mayweather 10-9'

I will certainly give that a look then. Floyd won but a lot of the rounds were very close and I've watched it back a few times. For instance in the first round which was a Floyd round I think I counted about 3 landed punches in total.

 

Thought he looked like very nervous in the early rounds against De La Hoya. But he came on around the 4th round and I had him winning 9 rounds to 3.

 

Yeah I do understand the rounds weren't landslides to Mayweather but he clearly controlled, outlanded and thus outpointed Pacquiao imo, I have to score it the full three minutes and I can't see anything that suggests to me Manny was outscoring him and his aggression was effective in spurts, fragments of the 12 rounds, 4 and 6 he was the one dictating the fight but other than that, Mayweather was rarely troubled. Manny's head movement was insane, he reduced Floyd's accuracy but he also slid way way down on that front, to almost embarrassing numbers, so he traded not getting all that much leather landing on him for not landing much of anything of note himself.

 

Yea I agree with most of this. I suppose technically he did win by a wide margin but 118-110 doesn't tell the full story IMO. It was clear they were giving each other a huge amount of respect. Probably too much really. They were touching gloves a lot.

 

when you see boxing as two men fighting to establish dominance and greatness against each other, you will have a different appreciation of the sport. when you get one man just trying to make the fight then it becomes a non-fight. the referees and judges are a lot to blame for this which is due to corruption.

 

easy.

exactly what sr saw in his eyes.

When he had to read at the breakfast club.

 

More people on here should talk like you guys, instead of the childish attacks. I agree with you both. I gave Manny rounds 4, 6, and 7.

 

You're in the minority. In boxing, majority decision rules.
