    What's wrong with sports this day???

    It's just BS !!!

    No One on earth can perform if injured in ANY Sport !!! Y'all just don't want to admit Pac fought with a terrible injury , one that affected his ability to perform but if it were Jr he wouldn't of had the nuts to go on with the fight he would have postponed like he did before and you boys would have faithfully backed him.

    Pac was hurt but did his best to hide it during the fight but looked terrible!!! I hollered out in round 4 when he backed off "what was that"!!!! Jr NEVER hurt him but Cotto did ,oh but what a difference.

    I would love to watch a healthy Pac back in the ring with jr

      Thurman has no shot against mayweather. His boxing skills and his power is not impressive in a elite lvl. Only people you want floyd to fight is amir khan, cotto rematch and pacquiao. Garcia, Mattyse , Thurman,porter, brook berto, ..I give almost zero chance against floyd..

      Only boxer that will bring this sport up is Terrence Crawford. Current welter is just fodder til crawford grows in to this weight

            This is sad....

            Honestly, this is sad man. Nobody seems to want to admit that Manny outboxed the "great" Floyd on May 2nd. It's like everyone has a voodoo spell on them because of how sneaky Manny fought. He fooled EVERYONE with how well he could box/counter/defend. Smh. I am being as honest as I possibly can given the circumstances. Manny beat Floyd. Floyd couldn't really hit Manny cleanly throughout the fight. Manny out defended Floyd too. He neutralized Floyd's jab, lead body shots, and he set many traps of his own in the fight. The replays and slowmos tell the real story of what happened. It was difficult to put into perspective, live. Everyone expected Manny to have to throw 1,000 punches in order to be effective and win rounds. I said he could box with Floyd before the fight and he didn't have to throw a lot of punches. The injury definitely prevented him from throwing his normal output. He still hit Floyd more than Floyd hit him. FACT. Floyd fought like a scared coward. A rich business man. They didn't show a lot of the good work Manny was doing on the replays. They showed mainly Floyd highlights like he was in control of the fight. Boxing is DEAD.

              I actually thought Pacman was one of Floyd's tougher fights. He fought very cautious. You didn't see him walking Pacman down later in the fight like he did with Canelo, Maidana and Cotto. He had them backing up and went after them. With Pac, he played it safe and smart. Punch output was very low. He didn't go for the KO because he knew that would have made him vulnerable to Pac's punches.

                Come on fellas, let it go. Manny lost. Floyd is better than you can admit and Manny isn't nearly as good as you thought.

                It shouldn't bother you this much. Manny is still a 1st ballot HOF'er. It's a shame his most ardent fans can't appreciate that.

                  I just wish they were smart enough to figure out how to resize them.

                    Cmon man respect BOXING. Floyd didn't break pacquiao down. He hugged and jabbed his way. He ran whole fight that even his even his dad til this day can't give a straight answer. Clean effective punches were landed by pac. Pac countered the counter puncher..what more evidence do u need? Watch the fight! Open your eyes

                      You do understand that if there were any actual controversy regarding the decision it would have taken off immediately and been huge news. There's not going to be some "panel to review slow-mo videos edited by heartbroken fanatical supporters of Pacquiao" that is going to overturn it. Manny wasn't good enough, time to stop blaming everyone but Manny for Manny's failure.
