[bender2000]

fight was a sad excuse for a mega fight Floyd won by running holding and slapping woo hoo what and athlete !!! TBE give me a ****ing break hes a sad excuse for a FIGHTER , manny you chased the man but didn't fire enough punches , mayweather supporters how can you be a fan of this prick ??? the most despised ahlete in the world I don't think you realise out of the usa how universally he is LOATHED by most people.

It was crap...didn't come close to living up to all the hype. Manny had no legs tonight.

I don't understand how anyone could have seen anything different. Skills pay the bills, end of story. The public consensus going into the fight was everyone picking Mayweather, but hoping Pacquiao wins. Mayweather was always the better boxer.

Except he didn't win 10 out of 12 rounds. He probably won about 7 or 8.

No dude, he won like 9 or 10 rounds, and where he dominated was that the rounds weren't even close. I was hoping they'd be. Was hoping at some point Pacquiao would land something big and make it interesting, but it never happened. Mayweather was smarter, faster, more accurate and ultimately the dominator.

You guys are pathetic. Roy and Bhop were not ranked no.1 and no.2 .. Manny was humiliated by a superior boxer. In 2010 Floyd was even better, it woulda been a massacre. And the only reason we didn't see it was because Manny feared the needle.

can you tell me who has paquiao ranked as #2? other than that is just a W for may weather against a pac not in his prime. I don't think pac would of won 5 years ago I always said it but pac would of had a better chance and actually a win 5 years ago would of put PBF as one of the best because he actually beat a true threat.

Other than than that I see PBF the best fighter of his generation with all the skills to be one of the best but never going to achieve that because His resume just simply doesn't cut it.

I think PBF would be remember as one of the fighters who had all the skills to be the best ever but he always avoided the true threats at the present time. Today he had the ability to ko pac and simply just played it safe. His dad begged for it and was on his ass all fight long to stop fighting scared.

All in all i thought i was a good, almost great fight. Manny buzzed Floyd a few good times.. i thought Floyd gave a few rounds away laying on the ropes and letting Pac unload on him. Still, Manny was too tentative at times and should've been far more aggressive, he was just too small in there. Floyds ability to good and even great fighters look average is undeniable. He's the best defensive fighter all time and unfortunately thats not gonna be appealing to masses who want Tyson like KOs.

Im not sure where Floyd goes from here.. There's only a few months to decide.

What success did Manny have?

He had hurt Floyd in like three separate rounds and some of those earlier rounds could have gone either way.

Did you miss the part where I said I'm a fan of both?

Not hating at all, Floyd did what he had to do. Why didn't Pac even try?

Because he is old and can't pull the trigger anymore. Same way oscar looked when he fought him, same way mosley looked when he fought Floyd.

Granted Floyd can do that to people, but guys feint guys out of position then pull the trigger at the opening, when you slow down where you can feint a guy out of position, and you cant pull the trigger to get things rolling anymore, you are done.

Throw in legs that dont work anymore, and it was just sad. Pacman was a shadow of his prime self.

Floyd is still pretty fresh, but same way they were misleading people about Pacquiao, Maybe Floyd's recent opposition is misleading.

People were misled by Pacquiao in several ways. He was fed progressively less qualified opponents, and slower and slower opponents, interspersed with rematches with Marquez who aged with him, so we thought they were both still at the top of their game. for a while even as they were slipping.

I remember after the Cotto fight, calling the end of his prime, he showed his first signs of slipping in that fight, but it was masked by fights against guys like Clottey, and Margarito, who are still impressive, since he basically went from 126 to 154 in a little more than a year.

But he had his power and speed against Algieri. .and that fight wasn't too long ago. .smh, why cant you see Floyd disarmed him with precision counters, had him timid because he didn't wanna get hit.

WHAT??? Most of the knockdowns were flash except one.....Manny from 09,10,11 even 2012.....would have murdered him! and u know it

[KillaMane26]

Question is where does MAnny go from here.....and who does Floyd fight for his last fight....Im thinking Thurman or Khan
