Comments Thread For: Mayweather Says He'll Give Pacquiao a Rematch

[Weebler I]

Does anyone seriously think Manny would have lost with a healthy right shoulder? He almost beat Floyd with one arm. In a rematch he would be pumping his jab which sets up his straight left, something he didn't do barely at all in this fight. Also when Floyd is on the ropes Manny will be pounding away on him, unlike may 2nd where Manny didn't do jack when he had Floyd on the ropes. Manny will accept that 40 mill flat like he was offered before and beat the crap out of mayweather fairly easily in the rematch

He did pound him on the ropes a few times, he just stood off him a couple of times worried about the counter-punch.

Where Manny let himself down was the first 2-3 rounds when he let Floyd dictate, it took him a while to get into the fight and that was costly.

After that he went round for round with Floyd until the last two rounds which he lost (well you could arguably give Manny the 12th but judges didn't).

I don't know what it means for a rematch, but I know if it happens he can't start that slow again and he can't cough up the championship rounds.

I just watched the fight for a 6th time without volume and I thought Manny won it 117-113. I gave Floyd rounds; 1, 5, and 11. I gave Manny rounds; 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9,, and 12. Even rounds I scored were 8 and 10. You can see that the judges gave all swing rounds to Floyd Mayweather. Manny was the aggressor throughout and did very nice work in combination when he could. Floyd landed single shots BUT Manny hit him as clean as he got hit. People are blown away because Manny didn't throw 1,000 punches to do what he did. It's the best fight I ever seen him fight, man. His defense was amazing and his reflexes as well. Where is the separation between them that says after 12 rounds, Floyd is superior to Manny? All of the commentators, the judges, and the ref were PRO Floyd. A lot of Floyd's defense is ILLEGAL! He's allowed to use open gloves to push his opponent while they are in a throwing motion. He is allowed to forearm smash his opponent. He is allowed excessive holding and putting pressure on the back of his opponent's neck as well. Without being allowed to do these things, he would've gotten dropped and he knows it. His own Father was disgusted with his running in the fight and said, "What the hell are you doing, man? They are going to take this fight away from you. Let your damn hands go, man!" In the locker room after the fight, Floyd admitted that Manny is way smarter than he thought and that he had to be careful of what punches to throw at Manny. Now, what does that say about Pacquiao's greatness? And he did it with a torn rotator's cuff. Floyd was exposed last Saturday night.

This is sig worthy. This whole thing. You are a moron, a Jabroni of the highest order.

Floyd will build the hype again for the rematch... "The "shoulder situation" is good business for Floyd...

People are just ******.

[Build That Wall]

I don't believe it.

Unless Floyd comes out and says it himself then I don't believe it.

He's been adament that September is his last fight.

Exactly. This.

If you thought floyd demands were crazy.. wait for the rematch loll. .

Definitely.

F*mos pretending the shoulder had no effect, idiots

[Joe Beamish]

Manny's too small for a boxer as brilliantly defensive as Floyd, who has such a larger frame. He uses his arms (with a 5-inch reach advantage) masterfully to push and bully the little guy's head out of the way. He controls Pac whenever he needs to.

Still I admire Mayweather if he's really gonna offer a rematch.

[MDPopescu]

Floyd gladly rematches the midget.
... Shoulder would immediately heal by means of woodoo...
... May Day 2016...

Floyd is a gentleman, I have gained a lot of respect for Floyd now.

People were hard on Pac and that is upsetting as as we can see it was a genuine injury, Pac is so stoic. He can put up with a lot of pain without complaint. And when he mentions his injury people jump on him and it was unfair. Look how he was robbed in the first fight with Bradley, how gentlmenly he handled it, so I feel it unfair how he was treated when he mentioned the injury after losing to Floyd.

His win over Pac is tainted real bad. He isn't the best of this generation. Floyds performance in hindsight wasn't that great, considering the circumstances and Pac performed remarkably well for a guy with a torn cuff from what I know. He hid it well, people just thought Pac wasn't himself.

But what kind of Pac will come back from injury? But Floyd giving a rematch is the honourable thing to do.

Errr... Didn't the NSAC deny Pac drugs? They must have had influence over this slightly biased article, of course Pac told the commission before the fight!

As for Floyd good on him...

That fight HAS to be a rematch!
