    The gif you have is not what I have a problem with, that's actually pretty cool. The problem I have is, on a few occasions, when manny got close, he would just bend forward. Look in the end it wouldn't make a difference, it's just an ugly tactic.

      Mayweather confirmed in a FH video that he was 149 night of the fight. Pac had the weight advantage.

        If someone starts bending at the waist the thing to do is to take both of your gloves and shove their head down and control it so they can't come up instead of missing with punches trying to hit their head. Or hold their head in place so they can't move and use it as a swivel to angle around and punch.

        You aren't in any kind of position to throw punches when you do that. It shouldn't make pro's at the level still look ******.

A good example of excellent boxers is rigo or loma they both use movement and defence but they also dish out punishment while floyd never did nothing. let me ask you this how you gonna put on a asswhoopin on a dude who keeps bending below the waist then immediately clinches you?
          Look at Dr. Tenma's gif. That uppercut he landed on Pac was vicious. He did dish out punishment that went right past you. Maybe he's too quick for your eyes.

            Mayweather would shoulder bump him, without a doubt it wasn't all clean but these are things we knew going into the fight. A 38 year old Mayweather was gonna use those tactics even more.

              Great points. Pacquiao looked dumbfounded during many moments of the fight.

                  I still remember DLH hitting Mayweather behind the head when Floyd did it.

                    It's not illegal. Atleast not in Nevada. They say "crouching" but that's not a crouch. Or maybe they need to clarify better

                      This is illegal by the book. Bending at the waist is not
