I watched it this morning when i got up. Didnt know the result and wanting manny to win. I only gave manny 3 rounds and maybe sharing 2 or 3 rounds. Mayweaher controlled the fight with his fast jab, exceptional footwork and perfectly timed backhand. Manny couldnt commit to a sustained attack for the majority of the fight because mayweather either wasnt there, nullified him or hit hlm on the way in.
 


his record assures his place in among the legends. but the problem is he really isnt one. he's a tit. convicted criminal and disliked person. great boxer and in history books for good...but he can never rise the heights of

Ali
Louis
Sugar Ray Leonard
Duran
etc...


his career is a bit too calculated.

*i admit his achievements might look better when years go by
 

Who would you like to see him fight finn.

i want him to retire now. but he will fight one more i quess--

--it should be another 0 record boxer imo so Gennady Golovkin KO procent 90.63% (32-0-0)
only man who might have punch to KO Mayweather cause he cannot be won otherwise

i dont rate Khan at all. he's air to me.

Just watched it back.

Mayweather is obviously an outstanding boxer - arguably the best technical fighter of all time, but one of the worst things about the sport IMO. I know it's not a blood sport where people want to see bad injuries, but at the end of the day people want to see a fight. Not even a brawl, but at least two people trading more than one punch at a time and not someone running for 12 rounds landing the occasional straight.

Look at Ali, Tyson, Leonard, Golovkin, Calzaghe, Jones Jr, Duran, Ward, Hopkins, Froch, Pacquaio, Tszyu, Hatton, Martinez, Chavez, Kessler, De La Hoya etc. etc.

Some of them nowhere near as good, but all of them infinitely better to watch. How Mayweather is the "Pay Per View" King is beyond me.

I think he's bad for the sport.

He has one more fight with his tv deal. Golovkin to big i think.
