One of the best fights I've seen in a while. Complete stunner.
Pacquiaos legacy is ruined. Guy may not be in his prime but he isn't really that much post-prime and he's lost twice in a row now. Even if they don't fight, Floyd to me is now seen as the best pound-for-pound fighter of this era. Pacman just looks weaker.
Honestly, I want to see a Floyd fight JMM now. He fought him a few years back and won easily. Let's see how things are now.
Even if people see the highlights, I don't think it compares to seeing the fight live and the insane buildup to the knockout. I was also stunned as Pacquiao was just lying there motionless.
I wouldn't call the other fight a loss to Bradley. It wasn't that convincing and there were a lot of questions about the outcome. And we will see about his legacy. I don't know if it is "ruined", but he may not be mentioned in the same breath as other great fighters 20 years down the road.
I would like to see a Mayweather-Trout fight. The way Trout handled Cotto, I think he could give some problems to Floyd. But I can see Mayweather agreeing to a JMM fight and beating him again (JMM doesn't match as well against Floyd as Pacman) just to say that he is the best because he beat the man that beat Pacquiao (without facing him in his prime).
