Floyd should have done more.

[p4pking]

Tito just bet the number 2 with LOADED GLOVES. Bernard made sure Tito had normal regulation wraps for their fight. So he knew he could go after him.

Also I'd argue that Manny is a more multidimensional fighter than Tito. You have to worry about Manny's movement, his angles, his speed his combos. Tito needed to be set up on the front foot to throw. Bernard put on a masterful performance never letting him set to throw but as I said before Bernard knew that there would be less power on Tito's punches because of the legal wraps.

Are you REALLY trying to argue this?!?!?!? Manny had recently been knocked out, was past his prime, much smaller and fighting with a TORN ROTATOR CUFF!!!! Tito was in his prime, just as big as Hop, undefeated and coming off the annihilation of #2 guy at 154 (Vargas) and 160 (Joppy) and was a HUGE favorite to blow Bernard out!!!!

Again, question was should Floyd have done more than land 148 punches (most insignificant) and the answer is YES!!!! Previous fight of the century was Ali vs Frazier 1. Watch that fight and compare to the Floyd vs Manny farce. Watch Taylor vs Chavez 1 and then compare to that farce. Watch Hearns vs Leonard/Hagler n compare those to that farce. Watch Evander vs Bowe/Tyson n compare. Carbajal vs Gonzalez. You get the idea. Floyd's great, but could care less about the fans. For almost $200m for the last fight, he should've cared and done more.

You seem to lack the ability to grasp the reality of THIS fight and the fighters involved and are instead comparing the words used in promoting the fight like "fight of the century" to past fights fought by different fighters. They chose "fight of the century" because it was going to generate the more money than any other fight this or last or any century(probably all combined). Floyd is not Hagler or Leonard. He is not Holyfield or Bowe. He is not anyone but himself. He fought exactly the same fight he always fights. So how can you say he should have done more? Pacquiao should have done more. Pacquiao is the one who threw 500 less punches. Pacquiao was the one who connected with less than 82 punches. Pacquiao was the one who made little to no effort to cut off the ring or attack recklessly to take his opponent down. Mayweather fought to the blueprint he always fights.

You look like a fool suggesting that Floyd be someone that he's not. Hes the highest paid athlete in the world 3 years running. He's the highest paid boxer ever. He's the reason everyone bough the fight. He must be doing everything just fine. It's chumps like you that are still trying to put the blame on him for dominating Pacquiao that are a fucking farce.

You're completely bat shit crazy Rocco. Watch Floyd's fights vs Judah, Hatton and Chico again and compare to the farce. He tried for the stoppage in every single one of those fights. Watch his fight vs Gatti n N'Dou. Same thing. He threw combinations n actually walked guys down.

Of course Manny threw less punches than usual, he had one arm working correctly and Floyd was 100% focused on lateral movement and perpetual motion of his feet. This isn't to let Manny off the hook, his performance was equally horrendous. Floyd was the superior fighter though, so he should've done more and closed the show like ATGs are supposed to. That being said, if you are looking for a critique of Manny to unbunch your panties, here it is: Manny didn't belong in the ring with Floyd, was clearly an inferior fighter and has been classless with his behavior/comments since losing fairly to Floyd.

Do you even watch boxing? Are you even a fan, or just an MMA guy on here trolling? To make some of the statements you make, it makes me wonder...

Don't want to inject myself in this, but I don't think these are fair comparisons. Hatton and Chico kept coming at Floyd(who was much younger and had his legs), and Judah was always fairly useless in the late rounds. Pacquiao was still dangerous at all times and Floyd is old now, the only surprise to me was that he wasn't made to fight at a higher pace, nobody should be shocked that he didn't given the choice. Even in much better form he has clearly shown he's willing to cruise through fights, think about Baldomir or tha Brusseles guy, or Guerrero for that matter.

Voice of reason!

I think floyd can't do anymore.

I wish he did do more but I suppose like Hopkins he nullified the opponents output and in a way that was a great achievement.

His hands are worse so he can't throw the combinations that he used too.

I just wanted a little taste of aggression in one of the rounds but in hindsight I suppose he never had too.
