    Was it close? sure but that's debatable

    What isn't debatable however is who left with their hand raised.

      I'm sure at the end of this sequence of Floyd resembling punch bag floyd shakes his head.
      That is the sign and cue the judgres can assume none of the punches hurt Floyd or landed therefore not scored for PAC?

          Most didn't score for Pac because they hit arms. Looks like only the punch that forces him to the ropes and 1 bodyshot at the end lands.

            Sometimes scorecards don't tell the whole story. I watched it twice and scored it 117-111 live and 116-112 the second time.

            What's funny is that even a 118-110 score for this fight is reasonable. The score sounds one sided, but the fight itself was NOT one sided because the rounds were close and Floyd did just enough to win most of the rounds. Rounds were decided by a few punches. Power punches were close, but Floyd threw and landed a lot more jabs, which was a major factor in scoring the fight.

                The fight wasn't close. It was like a 100m race where Usain Bolt wins by half a second. Outside of track, that looks close. In the track world that is a blowout of mammoth proportions.

                To those In the boxing world, this fight wasn't close. To those outside the boxing world, it was, especially to posters on this board who hate Floyd or love Manny.

                  The fact you feel the need to replied on this thread suggests you poersonally think it was close.
                  To those in boxing world it was close. To those outside PAC won easy it wasn't close

                    No it wasn't. How many fighters thought Pacquiao won? I only can think of 1, Holyfield.

                      You have no credibility so whatever ******ed gibberish you post or ridiculous thoughts pop up in your head are meaningless.
