    Floyd didn't want to fight in LA because he perceived it to be "hostile" territory .... nothing to do with money!!!
    So he had no financial incentive to fight there. So I was correct. Thanks.

      Floyd beat Manny by edging out a bunch of rounds and stacking them. Which led to a wide score card on even most adamant Manny fans scorecards. He didn't really "dominate" Floyd round through round except in round 11.... Floyd could have took more risk against a smaller guy, and even his dad noted that he was fighting scared[which he definitely was] Still solid victories..definitely could have did more though. He showed more aggression against Canelo who is an infinitely bigger puncher, than Pacquiao.

        Cut the ****. This ridiculousness of overusing "robbery" or "dominated" and other melodramatic misuse of terms is pansy. Save it for real situations, folks.

        Example. All these little girls were making it seem like Pacquiao was getting "dominated" by Horn in the main thread during the fight because Manny wasn't flying all over the ring like it was 2009. **** off. It's beyond tired.

          at 40 Hopkins was fighting Joe Calzaghe and Kelly Pavlik, while Floyd is fighting a guy in his pro debut

            and? I'm sure Mayweather could still beat top fighters like Hopkins did.

              Just pointing out faulty logic.

              So many fighters, who were greater than Hopkins, have been shot to bits by 40, its a meaningless statement.

              Same as the OP.

                He Isn't fighting top competition at 40. Hopkins was 52 years old when he retired. There Is no comparison. Floyd doesn't deserve to be mentioned In the same sentence with Hopkins when It comes to longevity.

                  How hard is it to add up, Floyd landed 171 and pacquaio landed 126, broken into rounds, r1 f=10, p=0 R2 f=8 p= 10. R3 f=8 p=9. R4 f=11 p=21. R5 f=18 p=6. R6 f=16 p=16 R7 f=17 p=10. R8 f=17 p=13. R9 f=12 p=13. R10 f=11 p=13. R11 f=26 p=13. R12 f=17 p= 12, gee that was hard


                  Compubox has the numbers as 148-81
                  so you found 23 more punches for Floyd
                  And 45 more for Pacquaio
                  Ok that ends this thread then. --------- found this on another forum, this is the short version, it's a correction to that guys slo mo video, this guy showed who landed the punch, what punch it was and the time of the punch in the round, no one on the other forum was able to show any wrong punches----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- summary------- floyd wins rounds--- 1, 2, 5, 7, 11 and 12--- pacquaio wins rounds--- 3, 4, 6, 8 and 10, round nine was exceptionly close, floyd scored 12 shots and pacquaio scored 13 shots, both landed good blows and this was the only round that there wasnt a clear winner of the round, if scored to floyd he wins 115-113, if scored to pacquaio its a draw 114-114, if scored even the scores would be 115-114 to floyd, all in all a close fight, judges and compubox very much off the mark
