Comments Thread For: Freddie Roach: I Thought Mayweather Ran Very Well

[Spoon23]

This whole fight is sickening.

Pac hurts his shoulder , sounds bad, and thats the reason he didn't train.

This is the FIGHT Of the CENTURY ?????????

Takes two to fight !!!!!!

The much Bigger man ran ??????

What kind of **** is that ???? This is supposed to be the FIGHT OF THE CENTURY,,,,, why didn't JR KNOCK OUT LITTLE PAC ?????

JR was getting DRILLED with that straight left and let a little man put him on the ropes ?

Holyfield the Great said Pac won the fight, he said how can you not win when you are landing the most telling shots and chasing the guy down ?

I agree with Holyfield But Pac lost on the cards, one judge needs hanging.

Thats boxing ?

LONG GONE are the days of KO's or is it,,,,,,,,,,I see on the horizon a fella named GGG that may just take up the slack and another named Ward that one day may make a SUPER FIGHT.

Jr is the type of boxer not fighter, that never beats anyone, but never lets them win.

he pitty pats his way to victory, then boasts like a fool.

Jr is and will always be full of **** !!!!!!

IF boxing was like him , I would never watch another ballerina show again. But its NOT, two gladiators are fighting next Sat nite. I doubt I will EVER watch another Jr fight, its too boring and sickening.

Its sad when the little guy has to chase the big guy to fight

Well said,

The bigger man ran all night lol

That said, the swing rounds or the close rounds were all given to the hometown boy. Give it to Pac it could have been a draw or even a win for Pac.

The heavier telling blows was pac's all night vs Floyd's pitty pat punches.

"To watch Floyd Mayweather box is to witness an elaborate exercise in self-preservation. There's not much passion. There's certainly not much flair. There's just Floyd moving around, doing his best to preserve a rote decision, and preserve the potential rematch, and preserve an unbeaten record that holds more historic value to him that it does anyone else. And yes, his style works, if only in the most cynical sense. Really, it's the perfect boxing strategy for a man who is a documented wife-beater and shtbag: always doing just enough to get away with it"

"Floyd Mayweather is a near universally agreed-upon villain, and so it was hard to watch him **** around in the ring last night;turning what should have been a big fight into an extended sparring exercise and not think,Hey, that guy beats up women and fights like a fkking coward.***8221;

Harsh, but hard to really argue. Social media is hammering Floyd right now.

The sad truth, and that is why he will never be loved by boxing fans. He doesn't have the heart of a warrior.

Self preservation is the name of the game.


Watching the fight, time was flying so fast. Pac chasing and chasing and running out of time in every stop.

Bayless will break, eats up time and poof next round. The bigger man running all night. That's boxing.

What was the deal with all the holding and headlocks by Floyd? Floyd would wrap his arms around Manny countless times as well as put him in a headlock. Where were the warnings followed by point deductions, another point deduction etc. Why was this allowed?


I believe Manny about the shoulder injury. Why can Floyd get shot up with Xylocaine for his hands and Manny can't get a shot for his shoulder?

Ring seemed very large which obviously favors Floyd.

Has intentional holding become so integrated into modern boxing that we salute a boxer as "TBE" who uses it as an integral part of his "defense" ?

I wonder how the fight would play out with a regular sized ring, a two armed Manny, and a ref that did not allow excessive and intentional holding. Floyd can have his xylocaine because at this point I would think he would be a mess without it.

I would like to see a rematch in September but only if Manny has healthy shoulder. I think there is a fair chance we will get one, too. So much money was made on this fight. Floyd will get the same larger cut, if not more. Right now they are counting this ungodly amount of money they made and if they can sell a rematch to the public, they will.

Plus, Pacquiao is now much more of a "known quantity" to Floyd. If he was unsure or afraid before I don't think he is, now. Thurman and Kahn bring the X factor. One has huge power the other has great speed and both have youth and are naturally bigger men then Floyd, and he will make considerably less fighting either one.

If this is indeed Floyd's last payday, even if it doesn't top this fight, its his biggest payday option. And if Floyd wants to do it, it will happen. However, if that shoulder is messed up, not sure if it can be whole in time for a training camp and fight in september.

This blog will get at least 200 comments from the whiners claiming Mayweather ran. However, by Pacquaio's own admission, the only way he could hit Mayweather was if Mayweather stood still in one place. His comment tells me that Pacquaio is not as good as many claim.


Mayweather didn't run. He fought a masterful fight that consisted of hitting and avoiding being hit. If Pacquaio was as good as his worshippers believe, he should have been able to win the fight regardless of the kind of fight that Mayweather fought.

Mayweather landed as many power punches alone as Pacquiao landed in total...

"If only he'd let Pacquiao hit him! That'll show him! "

[FloydvsPac]

Look these whiny scumbags , Manny lost outlanded 2 to 1 and shut down .

YOU LOSE .

I never said Manny would win. Floyd had all the advantages. But what I find amazing are the types people that are quick to defend Floyd..even at his worst. Fans of his skills are one thing. But gloating for a public figure like him makes one a real loser.

Excuses!. Excuses! Excuses! Shoulder injury! Ring too big! Mayweather ran!

The ring was 20-feet, which is the same size as every ring for every fight that Floyd Maywather and Manny Pacquaio have ever fought in Nevada. The ring was the same size as the ring that Pacquaio fought in when he beat Bradley, Hatton, De La Hoya, Cotto, Marquez and every other fighter he defeated in Nevada.


Pac could only win if Mayweather had stood still and slugged it out!

The alleged shoulder injury didn't bother Pacquaio until he lost the fight.

Excuses! Excuses! Excuses!

[Gary Coleman]

This whole fight is sickening.

Pac hurts his shoulder , sounds bad, and thats the reason he didn't train.

This is the FIGHT Of the CENTURY ?????????

Takes two to fight !!!!!!

You still here?

You need to read your sig over and over again! Your boy got schooled like many of us told you for years he would!

Maybe next time you'll listen when grown ups are talking!

48-0

[megas30]

The sad thing is that Floyd use their plan to beat them...lol. Remember, Manny was going to attack and get out.....well, that's exactly what Floyd did!
