So Monzon99 feels that MayPac was a DRAW. Let's vote

[KingOfGlory]

Manny won 2-4 rounds at best.

[Ganondorf]

Floyd clearly beat Pacquiao by a wide margin. Even Roach says so. How is this still in question?

[Combat Talk Radio]

There was no clear decisive winner. The fight looked corrupted, like Floyd and Haymon rigged the NV Commission to rig the judges in their favor. Floyd boxed scared and safe as if he knew, Don't take any risks to win sensationally, just get to the finish line and the judges are bought. Floyd did not have the confidence to win the fight fair and square and be a fearless beast like Ray Leonard, Tommy Hearns, Roberto Duran, Mike Tyson. Floyd boxed like a rigged corrupt fraud on an unlevel playing field. Public wants and deserves rematch. Everybody except floyd and floyd fans want to see the rematch. Floyd and his fans don't have confidence to do it again.

[Combat Talk Radio]

This fight will be controversial forever

The only 'controversy' is with people expecting Floyd to be more aggressive, despite that not being his style.

Certain people had it wrong and still do. They thought Floyd had to prove something. He didn't. Manny did. And he failed.

Manny was the one that said God would deliver Floyd unto him.

Roach (before the fight) said that there shouldn't be any excuses when the final bell rings, and that Manny would knock Floyd out in 6 rounds.

Mike Tyson said that Manny would definitely beat Floyd because of "perpetual motion".

Bob Arum said Floyd's feet were not what they used to be, wouldn't be able to handle the increased speed and power of Manny.

They put all that damn pressure on themselves.

Reference:



Think back to that fateful day. May 2, 2015.

Here's some helpers for you to remember what happened. I know it's been a long time for many of you.

So...what say ye? Was May Pac a DRAW like Monzon99 says it was?

EXTRA CREDIT QUESTION: In the highlight video, can someone point out which round Manny showcased his 'clearly' damaged rotator cuff?

monzon says the dumbest shlt

[aboutfkntime]

it wasn't a blowout but Mayweather clearly won

[aboutfkntime]

Not loaded, I mean that's why the third option is there.

Ultimately, we accept no situation in which Manny won, thus why it's not an option.

Question here is whether it was so close that it could be considered a draw, vs. wide (which is a blowout).



This is a bit different.

Up till now, I've not heard ANYONE suggest the fight was a draw. Completely different narrative.

that was my other issue... but yep, I accept that explanation

it is clearly obvious who won that fight

not a blowout, but a clear win

To me we need to put it in perspective.

This is MANNY PACQUIAO. Called the "Greatest Offensive Fighter" by Top Rank and network commentators.

If you trust Compubox, Manny missed over 80 percent of his punches.

A guy who previously threw over 1,000 punches against a heavily defensive Clottey. Yet against Floyd, barely threw more than him and couldn't even land 85 of them.

Floyd was so comfortable that he pulled this off. Nobody has ever treated Manny like a sparring partner before or since.






So when I say BLOWOUT, I'm talking about the totality of performance compared to the opponent.

It is universally accepted that Manny won 2 rounds CLEARLY.

In the words of Floyd (have to find that interview clip, it was right after the shoulder excuse), "10 rounds to 2...blowout."
