pac man does not look the same fighter since Mayweather brought up his steroid use.

viva carl froch!granite chin and comes to fight.

i think its just a natural side effect of age and having a full time job as a politician , someone with pacs style only have a certain shelf life , he peeked a few years ago imo and there is only one way after the peak and thats down !

and yeahhh froch is a mans man ! you would need a bat to knock him out lol

Marquez looked great . his shoulders looked especially big. pound for pound Mexicans are the best fighters.
always wanted to see Pacman fight floyd. Thought Manny would kick his ass . always liked manny's fighting style. never liked Floyd. his style makes for boring fights. great defense but not entertaining . seems like an arrogant punk . especially how he talked to his father in that 24/7 episode .
Hoping to see Canelo fight Floyd soon .

floyd would beat the pacman no problem i believe.

its a shame the fight didnt happen 3 years ago like it should of , i think both fighters have slipped slightly , mayweather is a bit of a cherry picker imo , mayweather should fight Martinez , id give him credit for that if he fought maraviaaa !

i think mayweather is scared to lose , hence the reason he ducked pac man , amd margarito , amd martinez , fighters who could of actually beat him

Mayweather vs McGregor is on lmao! 2 of my favorite shit talkers so the build up is going to be insane. I feel a lil sorry for Mac on fight night though. He's going to get seriously tooled and schooled. Floyd will KO him.

I saw the fight on you tube about an hour after it happened. Although I knew the result before watching it, I actually scored the rounds with the sound off (as it was in Russian anyway) and I reckon Horn won four rounds, Pacquiao won four rounds and the other four rounds were too close to call.

Out of those four really close rounds, I did what the judges had to do which was score 10 to one or the other and doing that I felt Horn did a fraction more for 3 out of those 4 rounds so it's Horn by decision 115-113, but I'd be happy with a draw too.

I noticed Jeff Horn worked hard from the beginning of the round while Manny would rally in the latter parts of the rounds and this often convinces some watching that it's was Pacman's round. Sugar Ray Leonard was an expert at that, he knew that the last 30 seconds of his stylish flurries would be worth more to the judges than the first two minutes of being out scored. Manny looked old out there and small and let's face it, he looked a shadow of what he was, he doesn't throw enough and he looked slow and without sparkle...it's time to retire champ.

and lots of journos are hating on the judges of Horn vs Pacquiao, but it was a hard fight to score. If you have ever sat in the front row at a fight then it's a whole different view of what is happening compared to modern TV cameras. Being there encompasses not only your visual senses, you hear the ooomph of a good body shot, you can see way better if a punch connected hard or soft, the clarity of everything is amplified compared to sitting at home and watching it online...but being there also means you are clueless if a punch is landed but the shot was blocked by the ref. Maybe the solution is keep the three judges and have another three judges watching the fight live with multi cameras, the two scores on the extremes compared to the average could not count and the fight could be decided on the scores of the four judges..that would work.
