    These sort of stats are always misleading. Boxing isn't scored purely on punches landed. If you actually watch the fight you will see that the majority of punches Mayweather land weren't effective. This is why one of the judges scored the bout in De La Hoyas favour, as he landed the better punches:biggrin:

    What I am saying is the fight was close, and a rematch should have taken place. Pacquiao has beaten Marquez by split decision twice and he's always given him a rematch. This is because he is not afraid to lose like Mayweather:biggrin:

    The fight was close but Mayweather still won, and unless it was in the contract Mayweather had no obligation to give him a rematch.

    I suggest you actually look up the meaning of the word fact. As his opinions are far from factual. <doh>

    They where not much closer. He beat Castillo by unanimous decision, and he beat Maidana by majority decision. So no judge in either fight scored the fight in favour of either of them. Where as one judge gave the fight to De La Hoya.

    Mayweather took those rematches because he knew he could beat them, and it meant he could dodge fights with other tougher opponents :biggrin:

    It's not a meeting I usually bet at, but il let you know if I fancy anything. Il certainly have some selections over the jumps in the next few weeks. I suppose you noticed that my nap, next best and outsider all won at the Cheltenham festival. I also ended up with a 15,000 total from a 4000 start on the betting bank competition on the horse racing boards :biggrin:

    mayweather is not daft... he's waited just long enough for the pacman to be on the wane.
