your stars are but dust on my shoes
I was disappointed cause I thought Mayweather was going to unleash some :demonic: shyt vs. Pac. The Ariza/Memo news, Mayweather fukking up sparring partners rumors etc. I was really expecting May to go that extra mile.

Everyone at the party wanted to see Pac put on the pressure and hurt Floyd.

Got neither :mjcry:

Fight has definitely aged pretty well since... Well, last week :mjlol: Pac fukked up by trying to box with Floyd, but his execution was interesting in retrospect. Got beat clearly, but its a more complicated matchup than what I initially thought.:ehh:

The Truth
Now that I'm rewatching the fight it was a lot better than peoe thought.

Pac did land a lot more than I thought but still not that much more AND he still got outclassed. Pac did well when he went to the body but he did f do it that much.


But I can see what Floyd Sr. was saying... Floyd has to have more moments when he throws that hooks and backs Pac up. He could do it easily but didn't throw the straight/hook combination but if he did he rocks Pac. And if Mayweather goes forward he hurts Pac or LOOKS like he's hurting Pac... Imposing his will on the crowd.

And when Floyd boxes with both hands up he hits Pac cleaner because Pac doesn't want to head hunt. And he gets the hooks off quicker.

If Floyd threw more hooks it would've looked even more dominant.. That's what Sr. Wanted him to do.. Just like he's doing in the 11th

And Pac was trash after the 7th... Floyd dominated the 11th

Also Floyd danced at the 10 second count because he knows Manny does nothing in special then tries to flurry at the 10 second count to steal the round... fakkit ass tactics

I think what's really surprising for me was that Manny mounted less of a fight against Floyd than Marcos Maidana did.

Floyd was never losing the fight.

At best, you could say it was 3-3 through the first few. But more realistically 4-2 or 5-1.

I think others were right in saying that Floyd Sr was concerned about a close fight being stolen by liberal judging.
yeah floyd was never down
i was generous and gave pacquaio the 3rd round when it coulda easily went to floyd
gave him 4 obviously and i gave him 6
floyd won 7,8.9,11 and 12

Do yall realize that Floyd made MANNY PACQUIAO, of all people, have less success against him than Robert Guerrero and Marcos Maidana? :wow:


Maidana landed 221 punches on Floyd in their 1st fight....Pacquiao landed 81:damn:


:pacspit: Manny Pacquiao for not taking his L like a man.

This was supposed to be Floyd Mayweather Jr's crowning achievement of his career...and Pacquiao stole it from him with his comments and actions after the fight:camby:

You're right about Maidana looking WAY better than Pacquiao.

I do have to admit that watching the replay now...Pacquiao's left hand did look completely useless.
It probably wouldn't have made a difference either way...but I'm just saying

Floyd styled on him in the 12th:wow:

I actually think the fight would've been over sooner if Manny had thrown more punches and flurries... Pac would've got slept. I give props to Pac for trying to play chess, it was probably the best way for him to lose :mjlol:
