Mayweather vs Pacquiao | May 2, 2015

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
The interview with Manny is just horrible. He barely knows English and just keeps saying the same thing, while the interviewer keeps elaborating his questions.

This whole show is a load of shit.
I think it hurt boxing rather than added any respect to it.
 
How has Mayweather managed to make so much money just dancing around the ring? So boring.
 
Boy, Mayweather is fighting like garbage. Pacquiao is looking the boxing version of the Big Fundamental.

What the fuck fight were you watching?? Mayweather was absolutely brilliant!
 
Just popped in the thread, and I gotta say, I can't find any comments that relate to boxing...

Lol..

This was a great fight, and Mayweather fought one of his best fights. Wtf did you expect him to do?? He's been fighting the same way for 47 previous bouts.. This isn't MMA, and these guys aren't heavyweights. This fight was going to the cards.

He outpunched, and outboxed Manny Pacquiao.. Who can say they saw that coming? I can't believe I'm reading shit about Floyd "dancing," like, have y'all ever watched Floyd?

Anyone here expecting a knockout, or even a knockdown, has no idea about the sport of boxing.

This is why I assumed people didn't give a shit about boxing.

What the hell entertainment is there in a fight where nobody even gets knocked down?

I was watching an hour of hop, half-hearted tag, clinch, repeat.

Boxing needs great heavyweights for it to be entertaining to the masses again. Boxing purists enjoyed this fight but it was a boring fight for most people that watched it.

I WANNA SEE SOME BLOOD.
 
Didn't watch the fight, but I was able to infer what happened from reading tweets. Guys, this is what boxing is. It's not Rocky. Boxing isn't about repeated blows to the face and knockouts. Its about what Mayweather did. Dancing around the ring, avoiding contact, and landing punches when he had the chance.

Frankly, I find it boring as shit, and there was no way I was going to pay $100 for it. Just find it funny the outrage over this being a "boring" fight.

As far as where boxing as a sport stands, what's the point? Do they even show Friday Night Fights any more? I'm pretty sure boxing has come and gone. This fight grabbed everyone's attention, but when was the last time that happened? When movies do a better job of depicting your sport in an exciting manner, you're pretty much screwed.
 
Good. Hopefully this was a funeral for boxing.

Give me heavyweights beating the shit out of each other and I'll watch.

I.. don't think you've ever seen Mayweather fight then.. What exactly did you expect?

Are you seriously saying this was a disappointing or unexpected fight?
 
Evander Holyfield thought Pacquiao won FWIW.

Mayweather might go down as the best pound for pound boxer in the history of the sport. It's like, folks tuned in to see him get murdered. I don't know what they thought would happen.

I saw a tactician literally walk into the ring and dominate.

I can't understand what folks were looking for...

Anyone watch the post-fight coverage on ESPN? Bernard Hopkins sounded like this:
