    Didn't mean to include you as fact, but giving my thoughts. The overall sentiment from anyone I've ever talked to about the fight in person said 2 things:

    The fight sucked and Pac won.

    Granted, the number of people who I know and actually saw the fight is less than 20.

    :lol:

    But the casual observers all felt Pac won the fight. The fight sucked and I rarely rewatch it. But the funny thing is, the fight didn't really suck. BORING, but it was incredibly nuanced and high-skilled and neither guy wanted to make a mistake.

    I had Pac winning rounds 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 11, and 12, if I recall correctly.

    One of the worst fights a fan ever waited on for years to be made. This went over like a fart in church. Pure STINK BOMB.

    So, who thinks Manny won? Manny and Freddie maybe

    Why do people diss SLOW MO? SLOW MO is used in literally every sport for close calls. Sometimes you can't see anything even during slow mo. In boxing, it's even more difficult. I've watched Inoue-Donaire 2 like 15X and I still can't see the left hook that Nonito landed. Announcers said it. Inoue said it woke him up, so it definitely landed. But I still can't see it on multple rewatches.

    All headbutts & nothing more, that's excluding all the other illegal **** that the MMA wannabe tried pulling.

    Let's just reduce the discussion to this thread then, you don't think the people voting in the above poll tends to like Pac more than Mayweather, on average, or were rooting for Pac over Mayweather?

    :monoloco::monoloco:
    If you seriously believe that was an honest legitimate win for Floyd, then your credibility is shot my friend
    The NSAC shafted him banning his Toradol . Floyd was caught blatantly cheating 24 hours before the fight. The judges the gave him their customary 4 rounds ahead before he left the dressing room. Pac was given no chance.
    Then the NSAC covered Floyd's ass & refused to investigate IV gate.
    If you support that debacle then youre not a boxing fan your just a trolling cheer leader Sorry :monoloco: GO)!!!!

    Oh yes there is Explain how Floyd legitimately got away scot free when caught red handed cheating???
    Plus it was Floyd that made it a stinker. Even his own Father/Trainer called him a coward the world heard him
