People seem to forget the fact that Floyd is 38 and Manny is 36. They are not young bucks. The result would have been the same but you would have definitely seen more action 5 years ago. I told people for months the fight will probably be lack luster or boring..Watching Manny fights post KO he hadn't been throwing anywhere near the amount of punches as before the KO...

Of course, I'm sure anybody who supports Floyd doesn't want to see him fight Pacquiao again because they know a 100% Pacquiao would destroy him for sure next time. Pacquiao was injured and STILL gave Floyd problems.

No blame Floyd.
Floyd is the PPV and yet the whole onus is on his opponents to bring the entertainment
Only in boxing. In fact, only with Mayweather.

Floyd did do the fans dirty on that one, he was the lead promoter. Screw it, i still hate Bob more its his fault haha. But that kinda made me root against Floyd. Pacs excuses made me happy he lost though. Give em their rematch, i love all the butt hurt and i just dont think they can live with the fact Floyd will have beaten Pac TWICE when hes done. Do they really want a rematch?

I agree more with Max Kellerman's comments tonight during the replay. NSAC, because of a clerical error, doesn't allow Pac the injection so he could get thru the fight? That's the b.s. I never understood. Biggest fight ever, and they go full throttle goofball. But some of it is since I have a torn rotator cuff, I know how hard it is just to do some projects around the house. Let alone perform in a full blown fight with someone of Floydie's caliber. I think if the Floydie fans will pipe down long enough and listen to reason, they'll finally realize we're dealing with 2 humans here. Not 2 machines. And like Max said, with an event that huge, think of all the stuff that would have had to shut down if it had been cancelled. Thousands of flights, motel reservations, betting, hotel employee scheduling, it would be a huge issue. But one that could've been remedied by NSAC getting their head outta their backdoor and giving Manny the shot so he could... BE MANNY. I'm just as disappointed as the next guy, but I don't blame Pac as much as I did last week. Hopefully time will get everyone calmed down to realize a rematch would be great for the sport. Obviously not a PPV... or if so then a really cheap one.
