Comments Thread For: The Rewatch, 10 years later: Was Mayweather-Pacquiao really that bad?

[The tucker]

The build up/wait and amount of money spent and the expectations is what made it bad.

This fight is the reason why you don't fight on May 2nd.

You get cursed by boredom

F@ck!n hell.

Watching rolly, teo, and haney fights felt like watching this fight three times in a row lol

Floyd legacy is $h!t

[LittleLucy]

never rewacthing this fight.. This should of happened in 2008-2009

Floyd Fanboys be like Floyd dominated but highlights showing Pacquaio was the one landing better shots. You can't make this up. XD

I have said this before that this Forum is filled with Floyd Mafia living their own bubble. If Floyd says "I am god", his blind followers will all believe him.

Other sports uses slow motion, not sure why some fans thinks this is not a valid argument to use. The slow motion video on this fight showed us how inaccurate these clowns at Compubox (More like HumanBox errors!), that is why i never use this when discussing fights. I do think Floyd won by a margin and his rounds were very close too.

Yes it was really that bad.

All Floyd did was clinch and run.

Usually the greatness of a fighter in a fight can be summarized through highlights
Highlights reinforce a fighter's greatness to new generations

Till this day, they can never show any decent highlights for Floyd in that fight
And I'm still waiting

peace out

It was. Even worse when you know Mayweather was roided up and still ran from the smaller guy

I had nightmares looking at Pac fight with his arm dangling like that
It really was about to fall off !

Pacquiao's Perspective ( ) :

• A torn rotator cuff in his right shoulder was suffered.
• The shoulder was reportedly injured during training camp, after mid-March.
• The injury significantly limited Pacquiao's ability to perform at his best against Mayweather. It was believed the pain returned in the third round.
• Regret was expressed about not postponing the fight. It was thought the injury would get better on its own, but it worsened during the bout. Pacquiao felt he had to "fight one-handed".
• Surgery was undergone to repair the torn rotator cuff following the fight

he never had the style to trouble Floyd

if not an infighter, need a great jab and a great looping right to bring it to Floyd

manny has neither

Pac waited May out until the taxman came a calling.
May would have ended him if Pac accepted random blood testing.
