If Manny agreed, Floyd would've moved the goal post like he did for 4 years.
Why was he so scared of a little Asian man?
ing this.at people who thought Manny didn't "care".. he wanted to, he just couldn't because of Floyd's greatness

An ass whopping to me is Floyd vs bruceles and gatti. Floyd didn't really open up and let loose. He did what he always does when facing a dangerous fighter.
Slap and run for dear life?
Anyways, Kovalev is the true P4P king at this point.
I was for Manny but he got pounded like a porn star in a gang bang sponsored by Viagra,,, happens.
I just saw the Max Kellerman interview.. holy this guy
DID YOU FEEL HIS POWER
What's the cbox for power punches? I guess a guy who calls a slugger who forgoes defense the "p4p king" wouldn't understand anything besides a KO.
PAC Won the fight. Filipinos should be rioting
Lol @ black Americans. Can't do anything right
Who cares about this fight anymore tbh.. Just glad it's over. Hopefully they both retire so ESPN can stop shoving this boring dead sport down our throats, tbh.

And that is why MMA > boxing
MMA has to pay its dues....Im an MMA guy and used to within my gym and some smaller venues in other states as well....but the fact is MMA has to pay its dues....boxing is known as a gentlemans sport....its been around in its modern form since the 1800s but its definitely predates the 1800s since the beggining of mankinds recorded history.....
MMA just showed up on the scene saying look we can fight and we can give you Romanesque type blood and gore...thats not what boxing is about....the other issues with MMA is there's no governing body or sanctioning authority to give it proper oversight and legitimacy....you got Dana White trying to enrich only himself...in boxing everyone gets a cut....boxing is as old as Vegas itself and MMA just cant compete with American tradition.....Give MMA another 100 yrs along with correcting some of its flaws then maybe it'll become more popular....but when you have every Tom and Harry walking into MMA gyms and sending their kids to learn to fight it loses legitimacy...I see MMA the same as taking a gun shootin class...
If you compare boxing and MMA one could make the cass that MMA is for people who are cowards...they're scared to fight you straight up like a man and instead want to kick at you, body slam you, wrestle and all that because they cant stand toe to toe and throw punches...many see MMA as a cowards way out...like picking up a stick to use during a regular street fight....
I guess you've never heard of pound for pound....any sport will have its classes and division....boxing is cyclical in that each class will eventually come around as the class to watch...dont get jealous because you think you could take these guys just because you weigh more....thats a flawed mindset...go watch the dumb brute MMA matches if heavy weight bravado is your preference

According to compubox stats even pauli malignaggi throws powerpunch.
bottom line, pac wanted to fight, mayweather wanted to slap and run (as expected)
mayweather really respected pacquiao because he wouldn't trade with him even once, i clearly remember mayweather wanting to trade with mosley, maidana, cotto (because he could see their punch coming) however with pac he wanted no part of standing his ground
anyways these two are done
now it's all about Kovalev and GGG (because they aren't american, they're not getting enough props)
Same woulda happened five years ago. Manny woulda been in his prime and the same with Floyd. He woulda kept manny on the end of that jab and went 12 rounds.
This. Only thing is Manny would of been a bit busier and PBF would have jabbed and held more ...
If you call those slaps, you should stick to MMA where amateur level boxing is seen. The fact that you're celebrating a bona-fide slugger means you don't know boxing well.
This is an all time master post.
Even Mayweather Senior between round said Jr is scared of Pacquiao. Hence he was going to run all night, if you consider that boxing then no wonder it's a dying sports.
I suppose all new boxers should start doing that, slap slap hug slap slap duck and run. You just need to train your legs for that.
And Pacquiao is waaaay to small to cut off the ring.
This weight class is done. If Money May considers himself truly the best, he would move up to 160lbs.
And if you call Kovalev a bona-fide slugger, then see what he did to Bhop (who is also a defensive fighter).
bhop is 50+ years old fam
he had no business fighting kovalev. and i disagree, boxing is being reborn. a lot of talent out there. its not boxings fault casual fans only come out twice a year to root against floyd.
You still sound like an MMA fan commenting on boxing. If you don't see the substance in boxing beyond punching a guy in the face, you should stick to watching sluggers who are only talented in the aspect of throwing a punch. The sport is only dead to people who see it like that, while real boxing fans continue to appreciate the sport around the world. That's why a single fight earned more than most sport teams do in a year.
Dead? No, it's still going on strong and will continue to do so.
understood, but bhop chose to fight kovalev because he thought that he found a weakness, but unfortunately that power can't be handled withbhop is 50+ years old fam

show me one of the great boxers from the past that used the "slap slap hug and slap slap duck run" strategy, there is none unless you consider john ruiz great (LOL)
what's worse is that mayweather didn't even have the intention to hurt pacquiao, seriously this was a garbage fight
