Glad I didn't pay to watch. Friend told me it was boring.

[mleun481]

it was underwhelming. Suffering through Jamie Foxx's national anthem was bad enough.

This about sums it up....

[imserious]

Mayweather won. Boxing lost.

It was a BOXING match, not a brawl. Floyd was actually pretty masterful, even if it was boring as shit. The chicken BBQ was worth going to my in-laws for the boxing match.

I thought it great that Bruce Jenner was able to get work as SHO girl so quickly! The Tecate girls were WAY hotter.

I'm on my cell so I either link the story url or the story. Manny was "significantly injured" prior to the fight. And I completely agree with the fact that this revelation, diminishes Floyd's victory:

Taking the significant pain Pacquiao had to be fighting through into account and how he was denied the request to take anti-inflammatory medication prior to the fight, it diminishes Mayweather's win.

It took long enough for two of the best boxers in recent memory to enter the ring. Although a rematch seems far-fetched, the adversity Pacquiao was facing may indeed warrant a second fight with Mayweather, whose supreme defense and tactical brilliance were too much for Pacquiao in their first encounter.



Pacquiao tried to initiate the action and be the aggressor in the fight but couldn't get to Mayweather as often as he'd have liked. Perhaps that was because he was dealing with a torn*rotator*cuff.

One has to wonder what Pacquiao might have been able to do had he been fully healthy. His effort to make it through all 12 rounds and even get the better of Mayweather at times is commendable.

Mayweather has just one fight remaining on his current contract, slated for September, and*has said*that he will retire after that. There's doubt as to whether Pacquiao will be healthy enough by then to engage in a rematch even if the two sides wanted one.

LOL whatever makes you sleep better at night

fact is, lots of boxers make excuses after a loss or even an unimpressive win

i thought i read somewhere that Floyd's hands were injured...

[ny325]

Now Floyd is willing to give Pachiauo a rematch next year. Your kidding! It took him 5 years for this boring fight, now a year for a rematch. That's a joke. He just wants more $$$$ that he could burn. If there is a rematch, it should be on the Public Broadcasting Station. FREE. The sport no longer has anyone worth paying for.

VERY well said and I agree completely. Foking money hungry douchery as we have all come to expect from "Money Mayweather". No wonder that 75% of people polled the day of the fight (probably the entire months leading up to) wanted Pacman to win.

Both well past their prime.

Never quoted myself before, but didn't want to sound like a Monday morning qb.

This fight was doomed since they announced it. Boxing can't even ensure the boxers are in decent enough shape to fight. Anyone who bought a ticket, paid to watch on TV, or bet on it was defrauded.

Go home boxing and don't come back until you get your act together.

"Fight of the Century"? What a joke.

[ATTN]

So apparently Mayweather has agreed to a rematch after Pacquiao shoulder surgury

I want a shot. I will take 40 million only

I've seen better fights in the streets of NYC.

Really? Why would anyone pay to see that?

In case you have not seen the fight, this is a much shortened version.

i had no idea how the judges were saying may was dominating pac the first 4-5 rounds as if he was toying with him and that pac had to play catch up. im sure he paid each judge 5 mil each.

The word dominating could NOT be used to describe this fight other than for the wallets of both fighters.
