I’m fine with 8-4. I saw it 9-3 or 10-3 but yeah I am biased as a fan but Floyd won 6 of the first 7 rounds and 7 of the first 9 on most cards.

I think Floyd got too much credit simply because it was a technical fight.
It was 8-4 ish, Floyd edged a few rounds, but then again Manny only won 2 clearly. On my card Floyd needed 10 & 11 to put it out of touch and he got them.

pac vs floyd was and will go down as the worst big ppv fight ever. nothing will top the absolute dud of a fight these 2 put on. if pac was really hurt he could have postponed the fight.. floyd holding all fight with his handpicked ref and handpicked judges. manny refusing to take chances.

I think once you get into the criteria for scoring, it was definitely a Floyd fight. Besides a couple of bright spots, Manny had in a few rounds, Floyd dictated. The telling thing is he nullified Manny's offense as we have never seen anyone do before or since.

The 3 people who mattered most saw it as a clear UD for Mayweather. Even the HBO reps had it for Floyd and we know they hate him. We know Manny dominates with speed and aggression and sets traps. Floyd took away his aggression and nullified his speed. That was the path to victory and Floyd followed the path. If Manny had shown different wrinkles Floyd would have answers. He just that special. There nothing a former boxer, a Manny Pac fanatic, or a member the boxing media can do to take away what Floyd did May 2 2015

Yes he didn�t fight prime nelo so fight nelo. PAC fight was controversial for many reasons but I don�t want to see that rematch. With Floyd trying to be oldest WW by beating pac!
PAC fight nelo at 160 to be 9division champ.? I know the standards on pac are higher than Floyd but this takes the biscuit. This is something I�d expect the big Dunn, Robbie Barrett or aboutfkntime to come up with
You have double standards. You expect Floyd to fight him at 160, yet you think it's ridiculous for Pac to fight Canelo??
You're making no sense.

Instead he fights Birdo and 2 MMA fighters that have never stepped inside a boxing ring for a professional fight. His 50 win came from an unranked opponent in his first boxing match of his career...and these dipshlts say he is 50-0. Hell, McGregor tried using MMA tactics when he forgot that he was supposed to �box? Anybody with any respect towards the sport knows that fight doesn�t count LMAO
I mean yeah the Conor and teshin fights aren�t real. But you�d take them too if you got paid close to $300 mil for both.
Seems pretty frivolous complaint on your part.
