blue4eva77 · May 3, 2015

Imagine having an undefeated boxing career approaching 50 fights, whilst running away.

It's effective defence and ring control. He's an absolute genius at what he does, a pleasure to watch.

Yeah, it's really hard to stand off and wait, much harder than coming forward and making a fight.

It's hard to make exceptional fighters look ordinary. Mayweather does just that.

Bit like Everton v United last week that.

Probably an equally emphatic scoreline.

Rope a dope tactics here as well...Mayweather out punched him in the second half of the fight.

The Mighty Quint · May 3, 2015

Same as always, if Manny took Mayweathers approach there would be no fight.

Well that was pretty unspectacular.

He's a back peddling shithouse, 5 inches reach he had on Manny, 3 inches in height, and he spent all the fight running.

Mayweather is not my type of champion and never will be.

Lol

LOL mate...take a moment to read your posts. Mayweather was the better fighter...landed more punches and threw more punches. Hate all you want, cause I don't enjoy him as well, but facts are facts.

think it was closer than the scorecard suggested. it's just different styles, it really is similar to Chelsea this year. Boring but effective and got the job done.

Mayweather clearly trained by Bruce Lee.

You prefer a fighter and courage to a boxer, and it's a legitimate opinion. Nothing wrong with that, but I think calling what Mayweather does "running away" is incorrect. To be able to spin out of corners, swing a hook on the way out and catch unerringly, while escaping being penned in a corner without taking a single shot - I personally admire that level of skill.
