48 professional boxers are yet to figure out how to beat Mr. Money, the better boxer won and we got some Mullah in the process! ..."Wewe ni mtu mdogo sana....na mwenye amekuandika pia ni mtu mdogo sana!".

Been struggling to understand the basis for most of the arguments here, till I re-read the header. "Team Manny, 2nd May our day". Need not say more. "The purpose of bureaucracy is to compensate for incompetence and lack of discipline." James Collins

DSTV reckon that the match is just the right kind of stuff you need to show kids - in addition to all the never ending chasing that happens in both shows - the hugging your opponent thing adds what will be a positive influence to kids! By the way na kama hauna DSTV... you can get a copy from river road saa hii  I don't want to watch all of it. Just the highlights even though I read from people it was 'boring'. Zinapatikana wapi?

Probably have watched more videos than you :) Then something is wrong with you, that's why you stopped, or were stopped.  Because your analysis of the legends is waaaaayyyy off. This match was a snoozer. It will be remembered though, for the marketing hype. But twas an ordinary one... Why don't you write down your own analysis, so that we can argue from that poin? To write that my analysi is wrong,without providing yours is cheap and anybody can write exactly that :)

The match was as IronMike put it underwhelming to say the least;Its not something I personally anticipated after waiting of the much hyped bout.Would want to respect FullyKenya's opinion but.....nah Am not soliciting for your respect. Your respect doesn't pay my bills :)

That should tell you something. Oh, watch Sugar Ray Leonard vs Thomas Hearns 1981, one of the greatest boxing matches ever. Then give me a classic Mayweather match. Any.

@Jus Blazin, first let me begin by thank you ,for drawing my attention to that fight. To be honest, i have never watched it that comprehensively, like i did today. I concur, it was a brilliant show from both boxers.i also admit Sugar Ray Leonard was awesome to watch.However, i find Mayweather more brilliant than Sugar Ray. Floyd doesnt allow himself to be punished,because he realised ,the less blows you take, the longer you can last not only in the ring ,but also in the entire career. Dont forget Pacman is a southpaw and southpaws are really hard to fight against. However, Floyd made Pacman look ordinary. This is an art everybody has to appreciate. However, i know you may have never stepped in a ring and most probably you dont understand the dangers a southpaw poses. Since you seem to love brawlers, have a look at Floyd vs Hatton. Hatton fought both Floyd and Pacman and he said before the fight that Floyd will be too intelligent for pacman...... ps. I am not moved by opinion of others about my opinion.

They would not hesitate to write of his tactical discipline and hard work in the gym. They would flood us with his tough negotiating skills. But he is Black. He can only be a thug.They are probably wondering why he doesnt sit somewhere in a prison. TBE

Quote:Just as the fight did not compare with those of yore, the manner of the victory holds him back from the company of such as Sugar Ray Robinson, Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard and Joe Louis. Quote:None other than Sugar Ray Leonard himself was among the many hoping that the Money Man versus the PacMan would put the fight game back atop the glorious pedestal once occupied by himself, Tommy Hearns, Marvin Hagler and Roberto Duran.

And I asked you to mention a classic Floyd match. Remember, I said FM is a defensive genius, has ring intelligence, but... Luck is when Preparation meets Opportunity. ~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca

Infact watch both FM and MP vs this 3. Ricky Hatton was not upto it but was overhyped by the Brits. "The purpose of bureaucracy is to compensate for incompetence and lack of discipline."

And one time he was being asked by a black radio station why he never donates to charity and he said he does not belieive in helping others and only makes money for himself. This is no joke, I actually listened to the interview on radio. Link

However, i chose Hatton as a typical brawler and Show guys, that Floyd also knows how to take care of brawlers too.
