    I suppose Floyd's the warrior is he? lol foh
    I dont agree Weebler

    Floyd at times in the fight was standing right infront of Pac,

    Pac was hesitant to pull the trigger, its like he was scared to get countered

    The fight could have been a lot closer had Pac pressed the action when Floyd was there to be hit

    Pac choked, maybe he still has flashbacks of the JMM knockout

      lol at this nonsense

        lol did you actually read the drivel he typed? Don't get upset at me because I called him on it.

        One guy ran and held, the other guy put the pressure on to make the fight and Dunn's talking about warriors, gtfo please.

          And despite how tough Pacquiao is, he wasn't fearless as many people expected, he clearly was relutant to throw his straight left (from the non-injured shoulder) while estabilishing lead foot dominance after he got caught by Mayweather's counters in the first rounds. By the way, he didn't even tried it for the rest of the fight, he would only throw again in the Round 11.
          Maidana is so tough he almost got knocked out by Jesisto lopez. Maidana never targets punchers.

            Hatton got picked apart after the 4th and knocked out. There is a price to pay when you are reckless against Floyd.

            I give credit to Maidana for winning 5 rounds and making Floyd have to win the championship rounds.

              no he didn't weebler. He came to get a check. he came to take a selfie. he didn't come to beat Floyd mayweather.

              we now know exactly what many meant when he said thanks Floyd.

Sorry but Floyd did not beat a prime Manny and nowhere near it, that doesn't take away anything Manny accomplished in his career.

                One fight didn't make Morales or Oscar a quitter but they quit. Manny is a warrior and his career proved it, he wasn't in this fight
                .
                Yep that's the key

                Let's face it after the Marquez KO the notion of Pac Floyd was laughable, even after the Rios fight, and then Bradley 2 (decent win vs a pillow puncher) it didn't have the momentum.

                Floyd fans acting like he beat a prime Pac

                Fact no matter how u wanna slice it that was a very damaged Pac.

                Floyd Sr reiterated it as did many others.

                You don't recover from a KO like that.

                  lol you're so bitter dunn, Pacquiao looked pretty unhappy for someone who just came for the cheque

                  your guy got the points win over a slowed down Pac 6 years later, take it and jog on because there's really no place talking about warriors with so much holding and running from the bigger man, it was enough to turn every new fan off for life

                    I didn't say it did-I said you can no longer celebrate his career. he pulled a Karl Malone-for all the greatness showed in his career when it REALLY mattered, he gave you nothing.

                    When he went face to face with the MAN in his era, he never mounted anything serious. There was never a point when I thought Manny was trying to win. he was just happy to be there. Sorry, but as a long time boxing fan I wanted to see more.

                    I was on NSB saying many would fight hard. I wasn't a poster who was saying this was going to be easy. Manny made the very worst Floyd fans-the ones who repeatedly said this would be an easy victory a virtual shutout-he made them all look like they know the sport better than the quality posters on this site.

                    Then the post fight presser. Really??? How can you respect someone who goes out like that.

                    reminder-I was the guy that killed Floyd after Maidana 2 for what I thought was a shameful performance in a win. Why would you expect me not to feel this way after what we saw Saturday?

                      That's the key, Floyd makes anyone tentative.

                      But Pac was extra tentative after one of the most brutal knockouts in boxing history.

                      Played a very big role in this fight.

                      Pac being tentative against Bradley showed this.
