    judging from the way the fight panned out, you would think they decided to play it safe..,like there was some sort of arrangement to not hurt one another.

    they barely exchanged punches,
    everything took place in bits and pieces, patches of exchanges and that was it...
    not a sweat broken from either boxers..
    seems fishy to me.

    It wasn't that bad. I thought it was a nice technical bout.

    Floyd landed a couple decent punches, Oscar landed only one real good one, so you're right about it not being a "fight."

      LOL, I wouldnt say they played it safe, I think Mayweather played it safe though...I would love to see the compubox stats on that fight to see how many punches landed.

        Well according to compubox, Floyd landed over 50% of his power punches. If that's accurate, then Floyd must punch as hard as a mouse, because Oscar's face looked fresh at the end of the match.
