Undefeated-Mayweather Defeats Pacquaio
The American boxer, Floyd Money Mayweather, kept hold of
his untarnished record and defeated the Fillipino fighter, Manny
Pacquaio.
The fight was labelled the fight of the century, and took six years to organize after claims that Mayweather was avoiding Pacquaio or Pacquaio’s strange decision to avoid being drug tested.
Pacquaio was the first to be introduced into the Las Vegas boxing arena. He came into the ring flanked by his coach, Freddie Roach and the popular American TV host Jimmy Kimmel.
Then came the money team and as usual led by his dad, Mayweather Snr (Coach) and Justin Bieber, Mayweather made his way into the ring.
Pacquaio started off more aggresively, setting a tempo for the night, but Mayweather who possesses a superior defence moved in and out and reacted with counter jabs to keep Pacquaio at a distance.

His lightning quick responses were impressive as Mayweather slowly gathered points, despite all of Pacquaio’s great efforts.
Filipino hero Pacquiao first really used his deadly left fist when he unleashed four powerful blows.
However, ‘Money Man’ Mayweather took control from round five even though he appeared to get criticism from his father Floyd senior in the corner.
Pacquiao appeared to take rounds seven, nine and 11 but his opponent was in control otherwise, even though the crowd were chanting “Manny, Manny” In round 11, Mayweather opened with a straight right to Pacquiao’s face and grew in confidence as the fight came to an end knowing he had won.
Pacquiao raised his arms in the air after the final bell, but his face was soon one of defeat. Mayweather embraced his father and was then awarded a unanimous points win to claim his 48th straight professional win without a defeat and his biggest payday.

“He had moments in the fight but I kept him on the outside. I was a smart fighter, I outboxed him,” said Mayweather as his opponent made his lonely way back to the dressing room.
Despite Manny’s claims here are the statistics for the fight.
Mayweather is expected to make nothing less than 200 million dollars, which is the biggest payday for any sportsman ever recorded.
