    The old J*w is damn right right on this one! Mayweather was perfectly happy to cruise to a decision. Even after talking all kinds of stuff beforehand about a KO. Overrated as hell.

      Crawford will never be the "People's Champion". That's the only thing him and Floyd have in common. The only thing.

          Mayweather has bad hands. You know that Bob. Money May is a twelve round fighter. Besides, he never carried a lot of power at 147 anyway because of his lack of size; He couldn't carry his power with him.

            Bob is 100% right on this. Floyd was definitely a risk limiting fighter which is fine but it doesn't please the crowd.

              When Floyd was 31 years old he KOed the undefeated Hatton so what are u talking about Bob?

              If anything I think the whole crowd and viewers thought Crawford should of stepped on the gas and got him out alot sooner being that the general consensus is Spence would of KOed Benavidez in about 3-4 rds max

              The fight got boring at times just like Floyd fights got boring at times when carrying these lesser opponents

              But Benavidez wouldn't have hit Floyd at all and would of been stopped or quit out of frustration imo

                Not sure how old you are but Mayweather post-Hatton was a risk limiting fighter (his hands, age, and size caught up to him.) Pre-Hatton he was a ********* in there lol We still haven't seen anybody put clean violent shots together like that since. Although Loma looks to be the closest I've seen.

                  Floyd wasn't a risk limiting fighter vs Ortiz at 33 Cotto at 34 or Maidana 1 at 38 he fought those guys just aren't easy to stop

                    Mayweather wasn't fighting a one legged man, coming in with his hands down. Only thing he was doing successfully was shaking his head.

                      Hell, he couldn't KO Baldomir, Guerrero, Berto, or Ortiz without a sucker punch.
