Sports Section Headline Title: EASY MONEY!

On Saturday night at the Las Vegas MGM Grand, Mayweather proved he was the Number One Pound for Pound King as he thoroughly dominated Pacquiao in a thrilling 12th round unanimous decision victory. For the first time in years, the hype of a much anticipated superfight lived up to expectations. Entering the ring as a 2-1 favorite, it was clear what Pacquiao’s strategy would be; “Catch Mayweather if you can”. This proved a tough assignment as Pacquiao quickly and often became frustrated with the very elusive Mayweather. Rounds 1 and 2 looked like a game of stick and move for Mayweather. Round 3 was the best round for Pacquiao as he manage to land a hard right, followed by a 3 punch combination to Floyd’s body. By round 4, Pacquiao appeared to be winded as he stopped in the middle of the ring and looked at Mayweather as if to say; “are you going to fight”. Mid way into the 4th round, Pacquiao manage to briefly catch Mayweather in the corner, but couldn’t land anything significant. Mayweather on the other hand, continuously landed hard jabs, right crosses, and left hooks all night to Pacquiao’s face and torso. Rounds 5 and 6 were identical to round 4. By round 7, it was all to clear that Pacquiao would need to change his strategy if he had any hopes of getting back in the fight. His face began to swell badly, and blood began to stream from his right eye brow and nose. He followed Mayweather around the ring desperately trying to land something, anything. In the beginning of round eight, Pacquiao fans tried to boost their fighter with shouts of Manny!…Manny! Pacquiao tried everything, but couldn’t land anything. Every time it appeared he had Mayweather trapped in the corner, Floyd would land a hard right and move away quickly. Two minutes and fourty seven seconds left in round eight, Mayweather drops Pacquiao with a perfectly timed left hook, and for a moment, the fight almost looked like Mayweather/Hatten. Pacquiao got up at the count of seven and continued to follow Mayweather around the ring. By round ten, Pacquaio’s face was badly swollen with blood comming from both eyes, nose and mouth. Rounds 11 and 12 again were all won by Mayweather. Mayweather wins with another virtuoso exhibition and the unanimous decision.

what is most impressive fight to you.. a boxer who will hit and run run run and hit and runn..
or a boxer who will fight fight fight….

if you a boxing fan who like most fight than running you preffered pacman and you will call the style of floyd a boring fighter..

but if you are a fan of floyd and really want to see more 12rnd fight for the good of PPV you preffered floyd..

hmmmm.

question:
WHAT’S THE REAL MEANING OF “BOXING”? And WHAT REALLY BOXING FAN WANT A BRUTAL WIN OR A CLASSICAL FIGHT?

– HOPE TO HEAR YOUR OPINION :::: =^_^=

On a typical FLOYD move, he and his team gave pacquiao 2 tough choices, MARCH and MAY. fraud knew MARCH would be too soon and MAY is impossible coz of pac’s political ambitions. If pacquiao declined both dates, floyd would have been running his mouth declaring victory granting interviews on how pacquiao ducked him, but it appears pac is fine with MARCH which could have caught floyd off guard. It was also earlier reported that floyd was asking for 154 lbs and 10oz pillow gloves.

We all hope this fight happens but arum looks pissed off right now he passed off the negotiations to his right hand man todd buoef after richard shaefer called the meeting off with jerry jones. Arum was also quoted as saying that GBP has some hidden agenda behind it. It is very unusual for loudmouth family being so silent after Manny’s acceptance of March 13 fight date. Are they not expecting Manny’s decision? What now Floyd, are you trap of your own bluff? What a gayish act.

Bob Mason what a fool, why did Mayweather never fight these guys only Marquez way above the weight he was comfortable in?

Why has Mayweather never fought a welter weight as good as Mosley, Margarito or Cotto??? Pacquio fought one of them and he wasn’t really in the divsion Floyd was in there for years

Why did floyd disappear wen P Williams, Cotto, Margarito wanted to fight him, suddenly wen a small guy marquez someone who shouldnt really fight above lightweight, called him out, why didnt he respond to all the Welters who called him out, P Will would own floyd thats why Roger mayweather says the fight will NEVER happen

In actuality, boxing is hit and don’t be hit, not throw weird stuff on slow people and see what lands. I could crush both Manny and Floyd with my punches on the heavybag, as I am much stronger than both of them, but that wouldn’t buy me a bucket of piss in the boxing ring, because they would be moving and timing me. Now ask yourself who does that more effectively and you’ll stop kidding yourself about a little Filipino pop singer beating someone who knows how to box.
