    It's so crazy how people were quick to call the fight between Floyd and Manny the most boring biggest fight in history right after it was over, now everyone seems to be clamoring for a rematch like we won't see the same kind of fight again?

    Where they do that at?...... Oh yeah in the current generation of short term amnesia.

    Funny thing is I rewatched the whole fight the other day and tbh there was nothing boring about it. Even Ward who was commentating said several times how it was a great fight and this is what people paid their money to see.

Also EVERY fighter would take these EX if they had chance, boxers have done worse like Louis and his "rasslin" days and SRR with his dancing( not that bad) and his singing(real bad lol). If Floyd blows his money a lot of it will have to do with his sports ********, that cant be beat without being an expert who spends ALOT of time working it.
      I truly believe they already had this ball going by signing Pac.
      You can already tell they hired secretaries to do their tweets . It's so scripted .

        Maybe but Floyd has sounded pretty sure of retirement, but with how he spends money it could be if so too bad because fight means nothing now. Yea I'm sure both esp Pac has someone else doing their tweets and other online posts.

          Nonsense he was getting hit pretty often by a 0-0 fighter and it took him 10 rounds to put him out.

          Oh and the "he was toying with him argument" doesn't hold weight because this was an official sanctioned fight and if Floyd was knocked out by some freak punch he would of lost that undefeated streak.

          TBE hopefully has some solid investments to live off of because now? Pac beats him easily.

            Very good point and I have seen that version of fight with Ward and I think Col Bob commentating. I think in part it was a way to discredit Floyd because fight was no where near biggest boring fight. Fury v Wlad and to a lesser level Easter v Barthemaly make it look like Hagler v Hearns 11.

              They both have peeps tweeting for them.
              No way Floyd knows when to use a semi-colon.
              The person who tweets for Pac is most likely a dude named Winchel. I met him in LA and he was his English teacher and media guy then .

              We know you cannot outrun sports ******** unless you are a pro.
              Or you have the discipline to bet on all underdogs in football games. Haha!

                Well, it did not live to it's expectations.
                Much like Oscar vs Tito.
                Hence, people thought they were boring .

                Seriously, most of Floyd's fights are boring because they lack drama .

                  Yea maybe Pac could beat a 43yr old(by time of fight) who has been inactive for 4 and a half years not counting CM fight where he hardly trained. And that would mean nothing, about the same as B-hop v Jones 2. Its time is over and May won and it was not even close.

                    You will go broke betting all underdogs real quick. Every once in a while the odds will be so great its worth betting on a team/fighter you really think will prob lose, but overall its not a winning formula. Yea the only hope for Floyd to beat the book is paying an expert to tell him where and when to put down his money, but most amateur's wont do that. Funny line about Floyd's English skills.

                      Well, if you will go broke betting on the underdog and taking the points, bet on the favorites then. Haha!

                      You'd still go broke because of the payout .lol
