Cutting the ring off is not just about cornering your opponent; you Neanderthal. Keeping an opponent, who is retreating, within range is also a thing. I ask you this, who was better in the middle: Mayweather or Pacquiao?
The whole fight was technical brilliance on Mayweather's part. Even when Pacquiao clipped him, it was a good display of quashing your opponents momentum as soon as it started.
Pacquiao thrived on moments like that, catching his opponent and then breaking them down with combinations. He could not break down Mayweather because he would get shut out after the first breach. Mayweather's reaction is what many overlook, coolness. So many people feel the pressure and try and trade; he kept a level a head and stuck to his game. The results? 48-0.
