The amount of butthurt coming from Pacquiao fans is amazing. Did they not watch any Mayweather fights?ChaMerZ wrote:Mayweather should have lost. I can't even imagine how horrible it will be after this online, with the many videos Mayweather is going to post of him counting bills and driving flashy cars.
Mayweather has a style that at least gives him a chance of a functioning brain at 60 unlike every other boxer.Positive A wrote:Fighters got a ton of money and aren't hurt. That was the whole point of this charade.

Either way, sounded like a boring fight. I knew it would be. Floyd doesn't have any other type of fights.

all this but those complaining are those who either spent the $100 or those who just want to jump on the hater bandwagon.Cryptic One wrote:Blockhead wrote:I didn't get to see the fight but I got tons of butthurt pacman people in my timelines acting like mayweather ran the whole time and manny should have won.

mayweather won easily... fought his usual defensive fight with just enough offense to win rounds... in other words, the typical snorefest most mayweather fights are.. no denying his skill to win fights, its just boring as fuck to watch
anyone who thought pac won doesnt understand boxing at all
Cosign this 100%. It was a Mayweather type fight, he dictated the pace of the fight completely. In other words Manny wasn't nearly aggressive enough, and Mayweather won easily. Anyone that says anything different just doesn't know boxing. Mayweather is the multisyllabic rhyme scheme of boxing, only hardcore fans of the genre will appreciate himoracle21 wrote:Blockhead wrote:I didn't get to see the fight but I got tons of butthurt pacman people in my timelines acting like mayweather ran the whole time and manny should have won.

As Cryptic was saying Floyd controlled this fight in the middle of the run. He clinched a lot but Manny never adapted. Floyd bounced off the ropes very well as well. I thought it was entertaining, but I can see how the general public may not think so. I lost a lot of respect for Manny after the fight. He came up with EVERY excuse he could about why his performance was not very good. He even went to the degree of we3aring a sling which mysteriously disappeared later lol. He did the same excuse thing when he lost to Morales. No injury was ever spoken of before and he was swinging for the fences and hitting nothing. Funny how the injury didn't deter that. But overall Floyd did what he does and, even if he has lost a few steps, he controlled this fight. I had it 9-3.
Ir's Manny's fault the fight didn't happen 5 years ago. He refused drug testing, and was clearly on roids. Manny is much smaller now, and doesn't KO fighters anymore.

my beef is that while i know its talent, i am not impressed by many of this which is why i have a hard time declaring FMJ the greatest of all-time or even close. and not for nothing, this shit should have happened 5 years ago.
This. I know Pacquiao's a babyface, but the media gave him such a huge pass on roids.Race Car Bed Sleeping Rapist Virgin wrote:Ir's Manny's fault the fight didn't happen 5 years ago.

your take sums up why boxing is dead. We have two fighters who take the safest way to millions of dollars, the media blows up this fight to be something that it's not, you have mainstream goons jumping on the bandwagon who have no appreciation for what boxing used to be, and it all manifests into this million dollar marketing gimmick that SUCKED ASS and symbolizes why boxing has become a jokeRace Car Bed Sleeping Rapist Virgin wrote:The biggest thing I took from this fight was being caught off guard from how much mainstream coverage it got. ESPN literally had wall to wall coverage of the fight for the whole week leading up to it. Even though I'm a huge boxing fan, I really didn't think it was possible for boxing to garner that much attention in 2015. It put a smile on my face. Props to everyone involved in promoting the fight.
