    After watching it a couple more times, not a bad fight at all and not boring. I think the last couple rounds were boring and that is what people remember, but the 1st 3/4s if the fight were good.

      I was excited for the fight for one reason: to see whether Manny Pacquiao was hype or hot. I wanted to see if the Pacquiao that dominated Algieri would show up against Floyd.

      I like Manny, always have, but I see his limitations as a fighter. Have since the Bradley first fight. To me I felt Bradley exposed the formula that Floyd was better at exploiting. That's all.

      I never felt that Floyd would go for a knockout. It's not him. He can't even if he wanted to; his hands are way too brittle at this point and he knows it - he's admitted it.

      Stephen A. Smith told truth: people are mad because they expected Floyd to do something different despite them knowing what he was going to do, instead of being mad at Manny for not doing what they know he should have done.

      if that fight bored anyone, that's on Manny Pacquiao. Period. We've seen that if a fighter pushes Floyd, the fight is nowhere near as slow paced. As mentioned before, Floyd didn't need to exert hardly any energy because Manny basically stopped trying around round 7.

        Well written piece of crap. Did you check Floyd's pedometer?

          Manny needs to reassess his "friends". Way to support your stable mate Provo!

            These ****sexuals are the boxing equivalent of Justin Bieber fans. In fact they probably are Justin Bieber fans that Mayweather gained as a result of him hanging around the little f*ggot.
            I've never known another fanbase to live through another fighter as much as they do, they'll die for him I tell ya.

              the word "boring" been mentioned most of the time when it comes to describing the fight...maybe its time to change the meaning of TBE as in "The Boring Ever"!

                  Not complaining because the fight went down as expected.

                  Boring because of Mayweather's hugging, headlocking, pushing and running.

                  That's why he got booed at the end of the fight. And still being booed in the NBA.

                      So for those saying "the fight was close" in Prov's mind there was no point in even watching the 12th because there was no way Manny could win he was that far behind on Prov's mental card...
