Unbeaten in 48 fights. The American won the points "fight of the century" against the Filipino unifying the titles in the welterweight category by adding the WBO belt with those of WBA and WBC that already own. Mayweather won by unanimous three umpires (118-110, 116-112, 116-112) and remains undefeated in 48 fights, while Pacquiao suffered their sixth defeat for 57 wins and two draws.
A "historic" fight because of the financial issue. It is above all for a whopping bonus of $ 120 million at least promised to Floyd "Money" that this fight will go down in history. Never a fight will have generated much attention, waiting and recipes: the "fight of the century" and should bring more than 400 million, unprecedented for boxing or even every other sport.
Not so spectacular in the ring. The fight itself, however, will not remain in posterity by its quality. True to its unspectacular habits, Mayweather made the difference with his jab and countering his opponent far more offensive than he, but less accurate. 38 years The American hit Pacquiao to 148 times against 81 shots at the destination for Filipino. This has not prevented "Pac-Man", 36, demigod in his country, he would have to say "deserved to win this fight."
People in the audience. It took five years for the two best boxers of their generation to reach an agreement to affronter.Le fight was followed by privileged 16,800 who paid tens of thousands of dollars to be ringside, as the actor Denzel Washington, the former tennis stars Steffi Graf and Andre Agassi, the golden couple of the US variety Beyonce and Jay-Z.
