Mayweather
Truly DOES dominate Manny Pacquiao with a legit 8-4 MINIMUM outcome, unquestionable, clearly outboxed, no sane person believes that Manny came even close to winning that fight. Manny is not fighting like he should, it's just wide and the Greatest Offensive Fighter is completely nullified. It'd be hard to sell a rematch based on that outcome.
Texts Stephen A. Smith and says he's open to a rematch because he wants to milk it. Smith reads it on ESPN First Take so it's legit.
Manny comes out with an excuse about a shoulder as to why he lost, refuses to acknowledge he just didn't show up and his fans buy into the excuse despite Hopkins stating that he couldn't have been injured before the fight and Manny saying he wasn't on a form he completed.
Floyd:
Also Floyd:
So basically, Manny shortchanged himself, and he's just in denial. Manny's fans continue (even now) to say that Floyd is/was a coward that ducked a rematch over a "controversial" fight. Especially when he beat McGregor.
Marquez
Puts Manny Pacquiao to sleep like very few other fighters have. It's decisive, there's no conspiracy here, but this is fresh off getting robbed essentially 3 times and Marquez was frustrated.
Manny calls for a rematch. Dinamita refuses on First Take, saying he's proven what he needed to prove, then retires for good.
NSB says that Marquez is a coward for running from a rematch, he cheated with drugs, he tripped Manny, Manny's mind was on Floyd, cramps, etc.
Bradley
Bradley basically completely shuts out Jesse Vargas over 12.
In the 12th round Bradley gets sloppy and gets caught with a wobbling shot and goes on the defensive.
Ref (Pat Russell) makes a sign like he's stopping Bradley, but he misheard the clacks and basically called an end to the fight according to the time.
Bradley refuses a rematch because the fight was otherwise dominant.
NSB calls Bradley a coward and accuses both him and Pat Russell of robbing Vargas of a "possible" win. Despite Bradley never getting seriously hurt besides that shot.
Fast forward.
Teofimo Lopez
Beats Lomachenko because Loma literally throws nothing for 6 rounds. A case can be possibly made for 7-5 or 8-4 MAX for Teofimo, but a draw is possible depending on swing rounds. In other words, closer than what NSB claims (but they're basically punishing Loma for not showing up. Don't punish Manny, but definitely punish Loma).
Cuts an interview and completely shuts down ANY possibility of a rematch saying it's not worth it. This is BEFORE Loma came out and said he felt he had done enough and didn't understand the lopsided cards.
NSB agrees with Teo and says there's no point - despite the fact that ultimately, Teo didn't really do anything of note. Rematch clause is moot because in-house fights can be made without a clause if both fighters want it.
With Floyd: "Manny didn't engage because he would have got countered to hell, but he deserves a rematch because his shoulder doe! Floyd's a coward!"
With Marquez: "Memo Heredia! Marquez ran from Manny like a coward!"
With Bradley: "Ref saved Bradley from getting KNOCKED OUT!! Coward for not taking that rematch!"
But with Teo: "Eh, Loma only did pitty pat jabs, same outcome, no point".
Call me curious, but it sure sounds like people want Teo to run away with the win and not risk taking an L like what happened with Wilder.
