Yea that pretty much sums it up manny had no offense that night. He did not throw enough punches Ricky hatton did better against Floyd. I was disappointed say what you want about Floyd but Manny Pacquiao didn't show up that night. We all knew what Floyd was going to do and if Manny did what he had to do the fight would've been exciting and anything could've happened. He wasn't going to out box Floyd he had to be aggressive to have any chance and he blew it.

Floyd didn't outbox Manny. He landed no really good punches and missed and hit the gloves many times. Floyd out evaded Manny. But people are starting to get hip to what Floyd is doing. Mayweather should get no more than a draw for fighting exclusively a defensive fight.

Calling a Mayweather fight boring is par for the course. It's up to his opponent to take him out of (boring) comfort zone. In this case, Pacquiao could not. Mayweather does the same thing to all his opponent. He makes them fight his style of fight. Why any thought Pacquiao would be any different is beyond me.

I wonder if he also predicted the Baldomir, DLH, Canelo, Guerrero, Maidana 2, Marquez fights would be deathly boring.
Worst PPV star ever.
His fans will pick holes in GGG's defence but will ever mention Floyd's woeful offence. Oh, I forgot, it's up to his opponents to make the PPV King less boring.

That was known long ago.
#48 fans would have their excuses ready except that #48's shoulder would need several pain killer shots before the fight.
That one threw all #48 fans and non-fans for a loop, hence the class action lawsuits on the way.

I enjoyed many aspects of the fight. It was a high speed chess match between the two best fighters in quite some time. You'll have to be able to cut off the ring and be physically imposing to force Mayweather into a more crowd pleasing fight (a jab would help as well). If not, he will outmaneuver and pot shot you all night.

Fans were calling Floyd "scared" to fight him, and saying Floyd was older with his reflexes and legs gone. Maidana apparently, showed the "blueprint to beating Floyd" and it was a "no brainer" #48 would beat Floyd.
Floyd makes him look mediocre and it was all because of a "pre-existing" shoulder injury no one knew about until after #48 loses the mega fight.
Go figure. That crow must still delicious after all this time.
