    If you want scrapping watch UFC
    If you want to watch a master craftsman at his best watch Mayweather box

    Sorry I waited up but happy I didn't hand over 25 quid on top of a Sky subscription.

    Now I remember why I don't watch boxing :) If this was the fight of the decade, it seems I didn't miss much.

    No problem with Floyd getting the win, but the commentary about his genius and brilliance in that fight is obscene.

    **** even I'm tired watching Mayweather run.

    We should defend our way of life to an extent that any attempt on it is crushed, so that any adversary will never make such an attempt in the future.

    He boxed very clever. He outboxed him he was very shrewd. Has to be admired

    Mayweather spent the whole night running away from pacquio.
    A whooping says Froch and pacquio barely has a scratch on him.

    Don't agree with that, Mayweather stopped Manny from closing the distance and picked him off at will. He took control of the fight from the start and apart from a couple of times getting pinned on the ropes he dominated.

    It was up to Manny to close the distance and he didn't seem to have a plan A or B

    While you can only respect Floyd, i still miss Hearns, Leonard, Hagler and Duran.

    People who dislike Floyd can console themselves with the fact that we all know he's going to end up bankrupt in jail.

    I don't overly admire a WW running from a LW and winning in that way. For me it was a poor fight, and the offense, which is what actually scores, was weak from both men. Majority of shots missed and landed on gloves. The landed ones for a lot were glancing. Look at Manny's face. He was lot more beaten up by Margarito and Clottey and JMM.

    Floyd wants only one more fight. Closes the door on Amir Khan completely, was never really on the cards though.

    Very disappointing fight. Floyd won but both fighters fought one of the worst individual performances of their lives. Terrible anticlimax

    The standard in the UK is so low they are not used to seeing a fighter slip a shot.

    Mayweather has a cracking jab and straight right, but you need more to be one of the best ever.

    Mayweather isn't there to be hit

    That I couldn't tell you, but he doesn't want to fight Khan, he made that clear without even mentioning his name.
