Comments Thread For: Holyfield Backs Pacquiao: I Felt He Won The Fight!

Much respect to Evander, his accomplishments, and we'll deserved accolades, but I think Vander is mainly taking a "Pac won" stance because Pac is a born again Christian, and he thought his support would improve Pac's position with God and bring inevitable victory.

Several times he was hurt lol , you people are fckn tripping .

Dont blame Mayweather for being Mayweather , Manny was sht scared to be Manny .

Floyd is way too good for Manny thats the bottom line .

Everytime Pac landed he hurt Floyd. Floyd never landed anything of significance to hurt Pac. You need to look at Floiyd v Gatti and Corrales, to know when Floyd is winning a fight, that's how he should look.

Floyd has been trying to fool the public ever since he robbed Castillo in the first fight, Floyd genuinely thinks he cant be outpointed if he throws lack of bad intention punches now. He knew he lost to Castillo, yet still got the decision.

Floyd was either running, or clinching.

Floyd was either running, or clinching. or hitting Manny 2 to 1 and making Manny miss over 300 times

He owned Manny like a lap dog , wasn't it sweet

Manny is now Vander's kid #31.

Holyfield was an excellent, even great fighter, but I don't know what we was smoking saturday night, or is did punishment from boxing do more damage than we thought? C'mon, Mayweather won clearly, by some margin. Give him great credit.

First of all you aren't honestly speaking. He in no way shape or form outboxed Mayweather. I watched this fight again with an open mind this time..and you cant give him more that 4 rounds. Single digit punch connections.....And A man who is clearly trying to evade punches is part of boxing...This is one of the most ridiculous things i've read on here, cause it seems like it's coming from someone intelligent. SB nation? Really?? Read Dan Rafeal's article on ESPN, and if you know boxing you know he is one of the biggest Manny Fans in the world and even he had it easily for floyd..YOu are reaching...and really honestly you look ridiculous...

I honestly havent watched the fight again yet... And i will read dans article.. But boxing is two-way... If u look at the fight without any preconceived views about who is manny and who is may, and just see two uknowns boxing, manny seemed to be the one pressing the action. It looked like he was controlling the pace with his offense, keeping may at bay and having him too scared to come forward... Again this is just from the live viewing i saw on tv...

Just for those who keep saying Pacquiao clearly landed and threw more. I posted a screenshot of the actual fight because a Pacquiao fan actually told me that the CompuBox stat sheet was fabricated :/

And those punch stats are somewhat biased also since Floyds shots are inflated by the "jabs" alone, you can see Manny threw 2ce the big shots.

I think careful analysis of what constituted Floyd's "jabs" would indicate a bit of bias.

I am in the camp that Manny threw the more "real" punches as opposed to feelers.

The difference is obvious...

Floyd landed the more cleaner shots, that's given.

But Manny landed many more shots when he flurried than was given credit for by the judges!

Because they were harder to see clearly and so rapid in succession.

Read the news around the world, most people thought Pacquiao won. He is still considered the Peoples' Champ. Headlines like Manny wins hearts of fans around the world.

Mostly Flom*s, The Nevada Commission and Paulie are the only once who thought Mayweather won. Did you hear the fans after the fight. Manny salutes and everyone cheered. Floyd salutes and everyone booed.

Get a grip, it was a close fight, most people gave it to the one trying to make a fight. The judges gave it to the guy who danced, held and clinched, headlocks, jumped and ran out of the fight.

Wow you know out of all the experts and boxing writers, you are the only one who says this....You are clueless and you are trying to making your argument by putting numbers on your comment, but you still make no sense...Your scorecard is way off, and i'm questioning if you even watched the fight and are taking notes from others posting..Even with an open mind you can give manny tops 2 rounds...this is ****** and responding to you has actually lowered my iq..you are a clown

Well, i think ur overreacting, im not saying anyones right or wrong, maybe my scorecard is way off, im just showing what i scored while watching the fight. I didnt have audio so maybe i wasnt influenced by commentators idk.
