This post just shows how ****** you're, blaming the aggressor in the fight alone, and not the fighter witch clinched and ran.

One fighter was willing to make the fight, the other was trying not to have one. Yet you blame the fighter who was trying to catch the other for a stale fight?

And to add to injury, there was no fire from either side, FLoyd was happy to collect his check as Manny in one of the biggest fights in boxing history.

I called it before hand as well, just by watching the Maidana fight. That this could potentially be a stinkfest.

Maidana II was also a stinkfest, clinching and running, and Maidana did go after FLoyd, problem is that everytime he would send FLoyd to the ropes, Mayweather CLinched. Dont see how you can blame Maidana in that one either

I'am also being generous, and putting some blame on Manny for this fight, but the fault on both.

Maidana 2 was a horrible grab fest. Go to the master for that fight, see my comments after.

Styles make fights is an old boxing axiom. The whole essence of this fight was the style matchup of pure boxer/defensive genius vs volume puncher/KO punch power. well, one guy fought his style while the other didn't.

Sorry dude, but all before this posters like you touted manny's speed, volume punching, power and stamina as the keys to beating Floyd. Manny showed none of these traits.

Be an adult, hold him accountable, accept Floyd is the superior man, move on.

At the end of the day, Mayweather is going to take home $250 million to $275 million, with Pacquiao clearing $170 million to $190 million.

All that for a glorified sparring match (let's be honest, Mayweather-Spadafora was the better fight) that was quarterfinals of the Mississippi Golden Gloves Junior Division quality. Both guys set career lows in futility in the ring... but they walk away with $200+ million each.

That seems criminal to me.

what about 2 heavyweights?


Tyson/Holyfield could have broke that in this era

Want to hear something shocking? You can fight your way out of a clinch, Manny has no inside game at all so he can't do it. Clinching... I remember Cotto landing some nice uppercuts when Floyd clinched him. He knew how to free an arm and punch, Manny just waits for the ref to break them up. You need to stop blaming Floyd for being boring and start blaming Manny for sucking.

Even more now a days. You don't have that anticipation of that fight and the whole Pac drama has ruined the future of it. Plus Floyd didn't engage much but that is how he always fights.

It's all Pacquiao. You knew Mayweather would fight the way he did, you thought Pacquiao would do better and he didn't. Mayweather did as he was expected so how can you blame him?

Unfortunately he also gets the blame, what was expected was boring, and thats what they, the fans got, all Mayweather, and little bit of Manny.

Blame goes both ways. This is entertainment, both didn't deliver, simple as that. You can spin it anyway you want, at the end it was the entertainment that people complained about.

If that's the way Mayweather fights, boring, then he gets the blame as well.

No fire from either side, both fought like they had their check in the bank.

Pacquiao supposed to have the tools to cause the counter puncher/elusive fighter problems. Pacquiao didn't have the tools so it's the counter punchers/elusive fighters fault for being elusive.

Yeah it would take AMERICAN Heavyweights For Sure! I think Wilder can be a huge Draw if he keeps winning and keep knocking people out because that is what Casuals want

Lol Cotto didn't do anything but land a couple of jabs and body shots. Your point is invalid , Bayless wasn't there for Cotto either, the referee Mayweather picked. It was Tony Weeks, same as Maidana I.l
