    Like watching two old men beyond their glory years fighting to get a paycheck.

    Nothing left in either of them

    Fight had to happen in 2008 or 2009.

    It was Pac's job to make it a fight and take the fight to pbf. He failed miserably. What most people don't realize is that pbf caught pac with a clean counter in the 1st round that put something on his mind. Pbf fought his fight was the ring general that's called ring generalship. Pac didn't fight his and was dictated to by pbfs ability to control range and dictate distance. It was easy work and anyone who knows boxing always knew this would be the result levels!!!!

    Correct

    FMJ beats Pac at any time and at any weight in their respective careers.........Pac simply does not have the Ring IQ or tools to pull it off.....tall with lateral movement staying disciplined behind a stiff jab would trouble Mayweather.....Pac aint got none of that, as a matter of fact, the early reckless lunging in Pac gets stopped by Mayweather IMO.

    Floyd was caught red handed CHEATING He broke THREE of the NSAC's own rules regarding saline treatment yet they issued the statement " Mr Mayweather did nothing wrong we will not be investigating" ROFLMAO REALLY????Then issued him a TUE to cover it 3 weeks later ROFL
    Yet this same NSAC denied Pac's previously agreed upon Toradol shot , on fight night because they said he hadnt ticked a box on a form claiming he was injured ROFLMAO Pac was beaten before he left his dressing room. You dont have to be a rocket scientist to know why Mayweather used the saline but it sure was NOT for dehydration. How do you spell C O R R U P T I O N !!

    I always knew Floyd would wait till Pac was past his his prime before taking the fight. Pac's style ages quicker than Floyd's, and Floyd knew this; so, he ducked the fight for 5 years. I was not expecting much. Then, Floyd put on a cowardly spoiler filled performance that even John Ruiz would be ashamed of. All under the watch of his personal ref and protector, Kenny Bayless. After the fight we find out Floyd was roided to the gills and used an IV to mask his test results. Didn't even have the decency to end his drug cycle a few weeks before the fight like every other fighter does. Nope. He came juiced up on fight night knowing he could pay off the testers like he did in the past all those other times his samples were hot.

    That the excuses would come flying in. Pac was younger, still in his prime compared to the older Floyd. Pac is still beating champs today!

    It was a boring match. Hyped way beyond what it turned out to be. At least 5 years too late.

    Pacman still being champion today just illustrates the overhyped quality of today's welterweights.
