    Yeah, I surely can't argue with the excerpt above. There's absolutely no question that the mere mention of it is/was severely damaging regardless. Like Atlas said, people just don't want to hear that ****. And absolutely the only route to go was to give credit to Floyd and move on. Period.

    I agree.
    But I have to admit that Bob Arum did his work. The loss was tainted, Pacquiao still has (some) legitimacy as a brand and desperate people have slurped it up. Still, the whole humble and respectful façade was traded in, in the process.

        other gifs 4th round .His shoulder went out in 4th after that flurry

        What does the last one even prove
        Looool. He threw the left in the first gif because he was clueless, and that was the quickest shot he could get off while Floyd was moving out of the way.

        How do you explain the "ferocious" combos in the 3rd gif if his shoulder went in the 4th? I see you conveniently ignored that.

        The final gif shows a jab (which got countered) in the 8th I believe, with a shoulder supposedly injured in the 4th, indicating that he wasn't so "one-armed" after all.

          Shoot yourself in the head if you think that gif is the 4th rd when it's clearly the 6th.

            This is what, as a Pacquiao fan, bothers me the most. Overnight he and his team have tainted & damaged his career more so with how he/they reacted after the loss. To me the blame game and not accepting defeat is more damaging than the loss itself.

            All they had to do is man up and say they no excuses, we lost. That's it. But in one fatal swoop this whole debacle has become a circus, and they only have themselves to blame.

                Too true man. And for all the flaming I've been doing (to those that can't be a boxing fan like you), that's what disappointed me more than anything. Seeing Pacquiao refusing to humble himself in defeat, and then the further cynical ploy to devalue Mayweather's victory, especially when he was magnanimous in victory giving Pacquiao plenty of praise, left a real bitter taste in the mouth. I just don't get how the fanatics can't see it and plough on ahead with same nonsense.

                They've used the excuse once, does anyone think they won't use it again WHEN Pacquiao loses a rematch?

                  and the injury disclosure will help sell a rematch

                    Floyd does not care if pacquaio says Floyd won or not despite that other article- Floyd said that to sell the rematch

                    He gave maidana a rematch and maidana said he won their fight

                    Floyd fights for money. This time he gets 70% of at least 3 million buys . He obviously is gonna fight pacquaio in his 50th fight.

                    Then let's hope both retire so we can get rid of these fanboys .

                      Conveniently ignoring the points raised. Typical.
