Once again, the golden age of boxing ended in the 80's. Great bouts and all were free on TV.

Manny said he thought he won, but Floyd like...

I hate to say it... Floyd has hand picked his way to best P4P maybe ever.

How is Manny tailor-made? What are you basing this on? What volume puncher has really taken it to Mayweather?NJSeaHawk":2uefkh5f said:knownone":2uefkh5f said:Honestly, not even Pacman in his prime could beat Floyd.

It became glaringly obvious why Mayweather waited until Manny was over the hill to take this fight. Manny in his prime is the exact fighter that is tailor-made to be the kryptonite to Mayweather. Even 2-3 years ago Manny dominates this matchup.
Tical naied it
Ironically, Mayweather landed more punches against the ropes and cornered than Pacquiao... I would posit that Mayweather did have the answer last night.Mayweather had no answer tonight when Manny got him cornered or they got into heated exchanges. He just doesn't have the punching power to do anything but run.
This his opinion, the actual stat for power punches Mayweather - 81 of 168, Pacman - 63 of 236Manny landed 8 of the 10 hardest punches in this fight. Just got pointed to death off the jab.
