Lets not forget Jamie Foxx's singing though, best bit of the night. He will wake up in the morning cringing to fuck.

May weather on points at 4/5 is like printing money.

Pity I didn't get on

Didn't you need the free money then?

i genuinely thought Manny won that. I obviously missed everything Mayweather did.

The real reason Mayweather has never fought outside of America non American judges may mark him down a tadge for not actually fighting

Mayweather will be world champion Olympic Gold Medallist world record holder and American Team Captain when he gets into Mantracker full time.

Mayweather's best move was taking the fight only after witnessing Manny's steady decline over the last 2-3 years.

The second best was selling it as the fight of the century.

The ring stuff was easy by comparison.

More like flight of the century.

Money put on a clinic there. Even if they fought 5 years ago the result would of been the same. The 2 men are aging but Money is by far the greatest of my generation. Its a art hit and not be hit back its what any young fighter should do watch Money that's how you fight a defensive fight hit on the counter and use your jab. A legend has beaten what's been put in front of him at ease tonight. I would love to see him fight Keith Thurman in his last fight or Kell Brook but I get the feeling it be Khan sadly. Sure no matter what he sitting on the top table with the elite fighters of all time.

Surely its about entertaining people as well? That was a dire fight and all Floyd did was ensure he won the fight with no thought to entertaining the millions of people who paid a lot of money. Yes he boxed well, but he didnt fight and his whole tactics were based on not fighting. For what was supposed to be the fight of the century it was a complete non event.

Winning is the only thing that matters in boxing. How you get there is not the issue. If people found Mayweather boring they wouldn't be paying thousands for tickets and pay per view! He is called Money for a reason.

He definitely went to the same mentality school as Mourinho though.

Mayweather won at a canter. It may not be entertaining but he's immense defensively and dominates because of it.

 

[Paulmcfc2703]

Sounds like a classic Mayweather fight.

Wins on points, bores the fuck out of everyone. Even Tyson said it was a shit fight.

Glad I never stayed up for it
