Comments Thread For: Mayweather Outpoints Pacquiao Over 12 Rounds

A mark of a great is being able to take a good fighter and making him look average.
Well Mayweather just took an all time great fighter in Pacquiao and made him look average. 10 years from now, that is going to stand out, and we're going to be talking about Floyd in serious terms as one of the greatest boxers to ever put on a pair of gloves. Up there with Robinson, Leonard and Ali.

Robinson, Leonard Ali hell no, mays resume to weak sorry but wishful thinking on your part

No he didn't. If you notice, Pacquiao has been fed increasingly less viable opponents to mask his decline. Of course he will look like he can move against someone like Rios who just stands there, but compare the way he moved tonight, to the way he moved vs Cotto, who got up on his bike and moved just as much as Floyd did. Also look at the way he used his feet to close the distance vs Oscar and Margarito, and get away at angles.

Im not defending Pac, or saying he is more talented than FLoyd. Floyd is more skilled than Pac by a country mile, but Pac stylistically is bad for Floyd, as we could see from the moments when Pacquiao had his spots.

Floyd fights the same today as he did when he was 25. His reflexes are a little slower so he gets hit a little bit more, but not by much.

Pacquiao on the other hand, isn't half of what he was. He was a fighter that was defined by his energy in the ring. He is now an old man with no energy left.

Which is fine to beat the Bradleys and Algeri's and Rios' of the world, but its not what it was when he was running through Cotto and Margarito and Oscar, and Barrera and Morales.

Its not really debatable either. He was a clearly faded fighter. Half of the result is because of Floyd, but remember, the Marquez fights all happened because Pacquiao was the kind of fighter who would come in, take a counter, then be of at an angle firing back undeterred.

Tonight, we saw a man who didn't have the energy to do that anymore. It was sad.

We never got to see the two best fighters of their generation fight.

Dude that's 2009 neither guy is the same most yall said Floyd legs was done he was shot fighter Floyd in 2009 is 10x better then Floyd we saw today so same thing results would of likely happen all manny had to do was agree without cut offs for test and we had fight back then stop living in past

Manny had a shoulder injury? lmfao of course he did.

Nothing wrong with getting beaten by the superior fighter, but the way Manny has acted since the fight finished has been embarrassing to see.

He just completely dominated an all time great fighter. Not a good fighter, and all time great.
Mark my words, in 10 years Floyd's name will be mention among the greatest ever.

Did Floyd pull out of the fight doe?
