The so-called ?Bout of the Century? between Filipino Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather turns out to be an ordinary, boring, disappointing, less entertaining and very disgusting fight no thanks to Mayweather pulling out all kinds of tricks just to survive the fight, even at the expense of losing entirely his face and dignity.
Okay it is given that Mayweather has an edge in hitting his target with pinpoint accuracy and could had piled up more points than his opponent but this is simply overwhelmed with the displeasing things he?d done on the ring.
What he did on the fight is running like a chicken, docking like a duck and hugging like a leech. His antics are way too funny. And come to think of it he has the edge even before the match started like having the advantage in heft, height, and reach. He is the bigger of the two but he ended being chased upon all throughout, like robber being tailed by his pursuing hapless victim. He even taunted several times, but he is doing this while covering his face well, very funny indeed.
Many bashers, haters and throngs of staunch of supporters of Pacquiao are now throwing all sort of things and even the toilet sink now in the Internet, saying things like Floyd Gayweather (old alias) and Floyd Mayhugger (new cuter and more adorable moniker).
Olympic gold medalist and a pay-per-view king himself Oscar De La Hoya, who also happens to be a well-respected and courageous boxer during heydays has dared Floyd to be great by being courageous on the ring, not by being just being so smart to hack out victories.
At the end of the bout, Mayweather received a very well-deserved boos from the crowd, which is not surprising at all.
On the other end, the loser of the bout, Manny Pacquiao, won the hearts of the vast majority. Many supported and egged on him before and during the bout, and cheered wildly on him when the bout ended.
Though Pacquiao?s record is not as impressive as that of Mayweather?s, still, millions and millions of people worldwide love him for his bravery and uncanny boxing skills on the ring. Pacquiao fought well to the very end. He is the betting underdog and undersized when compared with his opponent, but he gallantly and relentlessly challenged and ran after Mayweather all throughout.
Pacquiao?s sorry loss which looks like a victory into the eyes of many in different perspectives will inevitably put a permanent dent in Mayweather?s current boxing career and his pursuit for greatness (as if, he is great in the first place) in the future.
