They sold us short, us fans deserved more.

Not boring at all, unless you're one of those people who finds Floyd's artful boxing boring. And if you do, I have to wonder why you ordered the fight.

[Goldie]

Of course I expected a boring 12 round bout from Mayweathers side. I wasn't surprised with the result. But it seems the more expensive the fights are, they less they actually fight. They sold us short, we deserve more.

No, I'm not a butt hurt Mexican who thinks Mayweather didn't demonstrate domination, on the contrary. But I'm simply left with an empty stomach for more action. I refuse to call what Mayweather seems to always do a, "masterpiece", which imo he's far from. Accurate? Yes. Quick? Yes. But why do true boxing fans pay $80 to see someone jab & run all night? It's absurd. I refuse to respect a boxer who uses his feet more than his hands & calls himself the best ever. They sold us short, we deserve more.

I guess I'm a fan who loves to watch a fight at its best from both corners. But admittingly, all the trash talking, all the media, all the promo they do doesn't reflect how fight night goes, most of the time. The more expensive fight, the less they actually fight. Often times, I think to myself 'boxing has to be nothing but a long never ending soap opera controlled by Vegas. Will Mayweather ever lose? Who knows. But what I do know is that after generating this amount off fighting Canelo, they will fight again. After all Money May loves money & fighting any other boxer but the biggest rising star (even after his loss) won't satisfy his ambition. But this time around, they sold us short, we deserve more.

Just food for thought, I guess.

Shutup and start watching tough man competitions because you're not a fan of the science of boxing.

the sad thing about this thread is every poster would advocate the opposite in any other sport they like.

No one would advise a team that was ahead to play ******ly to try and lose. No one would advocate a wrestler, golfer, tennis player etc to take unnecessary risks when ahead just to please fans. They would ask the team or opponent that is losing to step up and play better.

But floyd is supposed to throw away a win? Shouldn't his opponent try harder to win and, in doing so, risk likely get KTFO or beat enough that he will quit on the stool or the ref will stop? Its the reason Hatton got KO'd while Ghost and Canelo didn't.

NSB posters really need to cease this level of biased ******ity. If you want to see floyd KO someone, tell his next opponent to keep punching and risk getting starched rather than accepting losing.

Because Mayweather makes his opponents look ordinary he's supposed to stoop down to their level to make it "interesting." lol

If people hate you, they'll always find an excuse to knock you.

If you're so extraordinary, then you should be able to at least hurt your opponent once a fight and follow it up/knock him down. Mayweather has everything but heart and the killer instinct.

He is and always will be safety first, yet he tries to lie to us and say he will look for the KO. He has a fighter against the ropes (Canelo) and throws 5 jabs and 1 right hand instead of a blistering combination in hopes of actually causing damage.

Mayweather will do the bare minimum required to achieve greatness, and that is his success and also his biggest flaw. He refuses to attempt to go above and beyond his limits, out of fear that he won't succeed, as succeeding to Mayweather is simply winning, and not the fashion in which you win, sadly.

You're an idiot.

[Vasyl’s dad]

Jesus guys.. when are you going to learn?

Floyd sr and Jr both said they were going for the KO, it was just a lie to fill there pockets with money. They do not care about giving the fans action, and the only people who defend Mayweathers performance as masterful are the people who can't admit they spent another 75 bucks on a boring card, not once did he even try and please the fans, yet you morons lick his b@lls.

It just signifies that close to every other fighter in the world is more exciting than Mayweather. Even his uncle and mayweather sr were more exciting fighters! Floyd, rightfully so will never reach the ranks of the greatest, and it's because he has the mind of a genius but the heart of a rat.

I'll await some sweet science ph@ggots trying to justify the fights, only one of worth was lucas vs danny and even that felt cheap and overhyped. No knockdowns, eye swelling (lucky)and a fair few clinches.

Just admit it: you thought the one was going to be amazing, and it was garbage.

Cant wait for Bradley Marquez, Pac Rios, Provodnikov Alvarado and Golovkin Stevens. Despite what you may think, they're ALL going to be more exciting, and I bet even floyd fans know it but wont admit.

Floyd's performance was Masterful. Only a fool believed he would go for a ko.

You know what you're gonna get with Floyd.

You know he's gonna easily outbox his opponent.

You know it probably won't end in a KO.

So why keep buying his ppvs?

[T18Z]

You're an idiot.

Whoa, chill out kiddo, don't go too hardcore on me.

[Evol]

jab and run??what fight were you watching he stood toe to toe and even backed up a 165 pound man

Idk but I heard boos from the crowd more than once. I guess they were booing at canelo for not engaging then??

i totallly get what people mean when they say this, and in previous floyd fights i have said the same thing but in this fight there wasnt much floyd could do to hurt canelo he was just to heavy. we all know floyd lacks in power and also hurts his hands easily and he also mentioned his elbow getting hurt or somthing but its harder for him to get the knock outs now hes fighting bigger guys and hes older. and maybe he does have it in him to stop everyone he fights but why risk it late in the fight when yourre up? canelo didnt go balls to wall in the final rounds like he did vs lopez who was smaller too. even garcia and lucas fought smarter than we expected and they are heavy hitters. not eveyone has that uncanny mike tyson rawness and can give us a awakara/figeroa fight any given night. thats what makes the bradley/provs special because it doesnt always happen and it happens at random
