Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Pacquiao Backers Had To Eat Their Words

[Pacquiaotard86]

Pacquiao was a shell of his former self, and has been for years now. Mayweather barely beat a washed up pacquiao -Definitely not the best ever.

They're still hurt! Floyd is right, if Pac is an ATG because he beat De La Hoya @ 147, what does Floyd get for beating him @ 154? If Pac gets props for beating Hatton, what does Floyd get for beating him first? If Pac gets credit for beating Mosely, what does Floyd get for beating him first? If Pac gets props for beating Margarito @ 150, what does Floyd get for beating Canelo @ 152? Floyd's resume is better than Pac: De La Hoya, JMM, Cotto, Canelo, and Pacquiao! If Pac is an ATG, what does that make Floyd?

This thread is amazingly filled with tears! It's just rivers!

Why are folks talking about Floyd being bigger than Pac? Oscar was bigger than Floyd. Mosely was bigger than Floyd. Cotto was bigger than Floyd. Canelo was bigger than Floyd. Maidana was way bigger than Floyd. It's not the size that counts, it's the intelligence that matters most! Floyd was bigger, faster, and way smarter than Pacquiao. Size was not Floyd's only advantage! I think Manny was shook since the meeting in Miami, and probably pissed to find out he was lied to about "contracts." It had to hurt more when Koncz came out publicly to admit they were lying! I think the fight was won that night! I could only imagine what Pac felt like when he announced his injury, only to find out that he never disclosed any injury pre-fight! His image was destroyed again. Needles, Stadiums, cuts, contracts, and then injuries! Not a good look for a champ, and then to top it all off, he lost by UD!

yes of course you're a coward because on that fight you control everything you do how to frustrate manny. you control drug testing, ticket, venue, referee, judges and everything.

Lol this dude got Pacquiao on his mind more than Jinkee. Ain't he got a fight coming up at some point?

I re watched the fight this past week. It wasn't as bad as I tought it was back in May. FMJr may act like it was easy, but Pac did slip and block a lot of punches. Even though the commentary team were acting as if those shots were landing hard.
I Love Roy but at a point, he was raving about Floyd defensive wizardry, while Pac hit him clean..

Strange night... Still feel Pac beats anyone at 147 & will give Floyd trouble again.

The fight wasn't one sided as people say from listening to other people

And yet..

The small dud backed Floyd for 12 rounds and Floyd realized his father is calling him a pussay lol

Legendary.

At what point did Manny become washed up? I'm sure you think it was before the Marquez KO. Which fight did you realize Manny was "washed up?"

And yet...he looked so much better than Pacquiao! You payed a lot of attention to Floyd's corner, did you notice Pacquaio's corner? Did you notice anyone messaging his shoulder, or anyone icing his shoulder? Did Roach have any advice on how to cut-off the ring, or how to avoid those straight right hands? I guess Floyd Sr. was right, Freddie Roach is a "joke coach."

He wasn't the same after that KO. HOWEVER to his credit he has bounced back, but not to the point of before. Just doesn't go in & take.chances.w/ fear of getting countered like once before.

This is my question though, is Pac every bit as a legend that Floyd is since at his age, no one outside Floyd would be favored against him? Or is it a.product of a watered down boxing in today's age of young fighters?
