    Since when did 80% think Manny would win? Stop making this stuff up Rocco.

    HBO did a fan poll before the fight. The numbers were ridiculous in Manny's favour. I'm trying to find the exact stat but it was waaaayyyy off like 80%.
    You know that is Pac Fans. Stop citing stats you know are irrelevant. Floyd was the favourite and he won the fight. Floyd did his usual non entertaining boxing. Floyd will never knock anyone out, what BS he was saying about swimming and cutting wood increasing his power is crap.
    Mayweather sold 4.4 million PPVs.

    Manny has given 4.4 million excuses.


    Were you this angry when Ali didn't dance, dance, dance in Zaire? @Master
    Ali was the underdog, shocked the world and knocked out his man. Entertainment!

    Floyd was the underdog with the public.

    He won almost every round.

    Ali said he would dance dance dance.

    See below,

    Floyd Mayweather was 'skillfully efficient'.

    He was a Professional, but his Performance Rating was a B- as an elder boxer.

    Muhummad Ali .......... was 'a clown' during the end of his career.

    I don't see why Floyd would do more. He is preoccupied at winning, making money and controlling, not pleasing the casual fans

    AND he's not interested in getting brain damage.

    When you consider everything, Floyd has had the greatest boxing career in the history of the sport.

    Undefeated, MUCHO dinero, minimal brain damage. Whipped all his adversaries.

    Ali looked good in his last 2 fights huh?!??!

    And he looks to be in good health now too!

    Pactards... So stupid!

    Ali may have YOUR respect but he can't wipe his own ass.

    I think Floyd's happy with his place in life. He's TBE and rich and self managed and still has his brains and health intact.

    Morons!!!

    You stick to watching old Butterbean fights and leave the sweet science to people with some intelligence.

    Don't ever expect anything more than what you already know.

    Floyd wont risk it at this stage of his career.

    It's up to the opponent to rough him up like maidana to get some sort of a rise out of him...if you don't do that he will potshot you all night!

    I love floyds style but have to get over the fact that no matter how much I want him to do more...it's not going to happen..why will/should he risk it at this late stage.

    Bring on an easy underrated and undefeated Garcia...then Garcia creates the biggest upset in all of boxing by knocking floyd out in the 11th round!!!

    (It could happen?!)

    Exactly. He was the underdog vs Foreman and Liston and STOPPED both. Funny that by using the Ali scenario your point is reinforced...
