The fight of the century – without standards
The hype is over. The fight is over. All that remains are the bruises. Manny Pacquiao’s ego is dented. Floyd Mayweather is filled with ego to the eyeballs. He won the fight that will secure his legacy.
He won’t care that the modern day fight of the century won’t make the shortlist for fight of the year. No one should be surprised. It was never going to be bloody brutality.
Trying to hit smoke
Money – Pretty Boy – The Best Ever
It is impossible to hit smoke. You might disperse it but it makes no difference. You can move and wave at it but smoke envelopes you and penetrates you.
Floyd Mayweather moves like smoke. When he sees an inch of an opening, his punches are smoke, breaking through the defence. He is obscenely accurate. Opponents don’t see the punches, they feel them.
