    Regret fighting Floyd? nah i doubt that. What #48 might regret is being a POOR SPORT. We all know how serious Floyd takes his training, it takes a lot of precious time of his life to get ready and excute his gameplan like he did on fight night. Mayweather sacrificed spending time with his kids, sleep, eating and a bunch of stuff for #48 to just outright say "HE DIDN'T DO NOTHING. HE RAN". I tell you what #48, you lost any respect i had left for you that may 2 night, that sht was not only disrespectful to Floyd but for the whole sport of boxing. Learn some respect you little fcker.

        I'm just curious what you guys think he genuinely feels on this one (wish an interviewer would ask him this)
        pac is not one to regret fighting guys.

        since becoming a star, when he losses he tries to win the rematch.

        morales, bradley....

        hell he kept rematching jmm even when he won/drew.

        he tried getting a jmm rematch after jmm almost killed him.

        pac is old school.

        he's not one of these try not to lose type of this new generation.

          He won with one arm. Floyd got a gifted win.

          So no regrets.
          Exactly. He won.-

            Let's be real. Floyd didn't really "beat" Pac like he does his other opponents. He didn't land that many effective shots, and I truly think Pac got robbed a few rounds, because of the Floyd nostalgia.

            Pac didn't get credit for a lot of his landed punches, and Floyd didn't look like a world beater at all. He won a lot of rounds, but they weren't like, "oh man, he definitely won that round". It was more like, "OK, he landed some body jabs while Pac didn't do ****, Floyd got that one".

            And really, it made Floyd look like the smaller man in a machismo sense. He was running from a guy that was probably 10-15 lbs. lighter than him that night.

            It looked like a smaller kid chasing after the clearly bigger kid the in a fight, and the bigger kid just does the bare minimum to steal that round.

            And Floyd missed a ton of shots in this fight, and I think there's a stat that he was the most inaccurate in his career against Pac. Yeah, Pac looked ineffective in some of the rounds, but so did Floyd.

            And in the majority of the fight, Floyd clinched like crazy anytime either fighter near one another. It made Floyd look really weak and bad for that.
            And to add this there's proof that the compubox guys bull****ted. Pacquiao won in the punch count made by all boxing fans.

              All that money that he did will overwhelm what ever ill feeling that he had after the fight

                Of course Manny doesn't regret getting the biggest payday of his career, regardless of the fact that his God abandoned him and didn't follow through on delivering Mayweather into his hands. Besides that glaring diss by the Almighty I bet he's all smiles at this point.

                For all of Manny's other concerns I'd tell him to pray about it, but we've already seen how far that gets him....

                  Pac has already been KO'd 3 times. Outclassed by a shot Morales, KO'd and outboxed in 4 fights with an old Marquez. He has 6 losses and 2 draws, fighting guys inferior to Mayweather.

                  So why would Pacquaio regret making $200 million to take another loss to the greatest fighter of this generation? If Pac was undefeated it'd be a different story, but he already has 6 losses and 2 draws to inferior competition, so I doubt he cared added yet another loss

                      Manny should have pulled out of the fight & I'm sure he would have had he not been promised he could use Toradol. He got sabotaged its just that simple. No matter what Mayweather was not going to be allowed to lose With the IV gate that's been proven beyond any reasonable doubt I think.
                      Good part is Manny got well paid. If anyone should be ashamed & embarrassed at their own performance its got to be Mayweather. With all the advantages he received legal & illegal he still fought like a coward. I hope he is out of boxing for good
