Exactly. It's a shame it's not more explosive but technically - unreal to watch such control.

Mate , his technical ability is second to none . His defense and counter punching is just streets ahead of anybody . He made Manny look like a novice and he's a world class fighter . To null a real fighter like that and wear him down takes some doing .

Boxing is a different game than it was and there's not many of those big explosive fighters around because in the end they get knocked out . Mayweather knows his opponent has to knock him out and that's the real plus point .

It's a bit like playing Barcelona in the Nou Camp , you have it all to do !

So true.

Can't lose a fight if you don't get hit. It's a shame he isn't more positive - ie: going out to win a fight more than not lose a fight, but...it's irrelevant because he's just so, so good.

Nice and humble in his brief interview afterwards. Makes a change.

They says he's a great fighter who's never been in a great fight . I don't agree with that Mayweather is a boxer who makes great fighters look ordinary.

He's done a better job of being a creditable undefeated champion than Calzaghe. Mayweather (apart from maybe Pacquiao) has fought everyone in front of him when needed and made them all look bang average.

Most of his female companions say the same... he's a prick.
