    Is it me or was mayweather rusty as hell in his fight with jmm...

    I'm a big mayweather fan and i've seen almost all of his fights...he seem very unfonfortable in there with....reluctant to engage, rarely any combos, and not as confident(mayweather has certain a swag in the ring in all his fights) imho he would've lost to to pac if he came back and fought pac right off the bat...im not saying he's on the decline(might be) but he show a alot rust in there to me. who agrees?

    I saw a man playing with Marquez as if he was his son.

        He said he could get better, but knocking down JMM and winning all 12 rounds is impressive.
        Skills and Speed Beat JMM not Size advantage

                Excuses for what? He completely played with Marquez...

                Your a ****ing tool if you think he looked rusty.. Almost every expert says he looks as good as ever.

                  he should have knocked jmm out.. just pressed harder, thrown more. jmm couldn't hurt him anyway.

                  it's kind of hard to spot if he was infact rusty though as it was a shutout against an overmatched opponent.

                    He was a little rusty but he looked great for somebody who had a 19 months layoff. But shaking off the ring rust was the purpose of this fight.
