Why isn't anyone claiming Pacquiao was injured?

    No discomfort in the corner. A severely torn rotator cuff just doing it's thing in 12 rounds. First time a fighter talks about an injury in a post ring interview. As if having an injury is shameful?

    Top Rank are goons, but there's a sucker born every minute. Nor did you ever hear boxing critics complain when De La Hoya took an IV against Pac..

    Sometimes boxing is Gay? Ironic innit.

      Mayweather would be out cold if Pacquiao landed a flush overhand on him.
      Mayweather has never been down, the shots Mosley and Maidana hit him with would have put Bradley asleep for a week. Bradley has been dropped by ****ing Jessie Vargas.

        do you think the difference in Floyd staying up and Bradley going down twice had anything to do with Floyd having much better balance?

          No they wouldn't lol. A flimsy armed, roidless Mosley and an overrated Maidana don't hit as hard as Pacquiao.

          Bradley also wasn't knocked down by Vargas. But he was caught numerous times through-out the fight and only finally wobbled at the end, you could argue his chin has deteriorated with all the wars. He falls into punches from massive punchers and most of the time takes it and doesn't go down, his chin is clearly better than Mayweather's. What sets Mayweather apart is his defense.

            Bradley walks through that punch like nothing. Mayweather against a lesser puncher you can see visibly stiffen, and later he's badly wobbled by the punch. Bradley has been eating that overhand in every fight of the trilogy vs Pacquiao, over and over.

              Roughly the same percentage as Floyd now.
              Absolutely not. Floyd's movement had more to do with lowering Pac's output. Also, it was pretty obvious from the beginning that Pac's plan was to set traps and counter-puch Mayweather (as Floyd acknowledged) and that strategy would yield a lower than normal output. All in all, Floyd wasn't nearly as effective at counter punching that night as he normally.

              Floyd won that night with his jab/movement, not counter-punching.

                  I can't dispute what you wrote. Floyd did discourage PAC and his weak traps.

                  PAC got schooled. Bradley lacked the mind and ability to do the same.

                  Floyd is that good.

                      I wonder what type of asswhooping Floyd would have given Manny if his rotator cuff wasn't torn also.
