Well, brehs, it's been a couple of days for me to let everything settle down and settle in. Call this my Post-Mortem review, if you will.

I went to a local bar to see the fight. Cost me about $25 just to get in. Took me off guard at first, but I understood why, and at the end of the night after getting some grub and meeting some kind folks, I had a fine time.

As for the fight itself, what can I say? No, it won't be remembered classically like the 4 Kings in the 80s or Ali-Frazier, but it was a moment to behold and remember for the history books. I think that Manny tried his absolute hardest to win, especially now given what we know about his shoulder, but in the end, Floyd is just too damn good and too damn difficult to hit, let alone outpoint and outbox for 12 rounds.

Floyd looked like a damn magician out there. From timing, to reflexes, to footwork, to in-ring awareness and IQ, it was one of the better displays of pure boxing I have ever seen. He found a way to stymie Manny's own unique footwork, and found a way to discourage him from opening up and control the fight at his pace. I think he's an absolute piece of shyt out of the ring, but there is no denying that the man is an absolute defensive wizard and a boxing genius in the ring. In the words of Good Ol' JR, Jim Ross: "I will give the Devil his due."

When I first heard of Manny's shoulder, I initially thought, "No excuses. Take the L like a man." But then again, I have never nowhere gone through the rigorous ringer of professional athletic training, let alone to be a professional prize fighter, so who the hell am I to easily disparage an injury such as this? I think Manny felt that if he delayed or postponed the fight till his shoulder healed, someone else (like Khan) would have easily taken the spot, and probably feared that Floyd would use this to help spin it into "He don't want the fight, so why should I care to fight him now?" It was a damned if you do, damned if you don't scenario, but I commend Manny for going through it, no matter what.

Looking at what happened, I'm not even sure if Manny would have beaten Floyd 5 years ago, especially when you take into consideration how badly he struggled with JMM just a mere year after the fight with Floyd broke down.

But still, Manny Pacquiao should not be ashamed of himself, or his place in history. He will still be recognized as a beloved, popular and historic figure in and out of the boxing ring. He'll just have one superior, and that is none other than one Floyd Joy Mayweather, Jr.

My hat's off to Money for yet another chapter in a legendary career. Now, with one fight remaining in his contract, all that's left to see is how this so far unblemished professional career all ends.
listen, if manny woulda just lost the fight, thanked god, congradulated floyd and moved on with his career, i would have no problem
u don't call a guy scared for 5 years
run your mouth all through the build up off the fight
say your in the best shape of your career (im older and wiser now)
get schooled and embarassed
and den cry and complain about being robbed and being hurt
its just pathetic

give the man his due and move on

we all saw him throw with both hands during the fight
we all saw him put both his arms up in victory after the fight
we all saw him say he won and mention nothing about the shoulder after the fight

i'm sorry, hes a had a great career and hes first ballot hall of famer
but he and his camp are sore losers and should be ashamed of themselves

for a supposed loud ignorant black man, floyd has been pretty damn respectul to those guys before and after the fight
if it was me i woulda:ufdup:
