He was the aggressor and in my opinion landed more hits on Maywhether the entire fight. But it really doesn't matter cause neither one don't have to worry about paying bills the rest of their lives. All because they are lucky enough to be in an industry that pays boatloads on fighting for a living. Same for any athlete. Get paid to play sports is as ridiculous as getting paid to watch the sun rise and set. I don't purchase tickets or jerseys or anything to feed into that sociological Bullshit. But yet the low and middle class wonder why they struggle to pay bills every day and aren't paid enough and are worked to death. It's because you're the largest percentage of the income bracket and are primarily solely responsible for this exact income inequality. You pay the athletes or actors or musicians. You make them rich so you can continue to struggle and fantasize about being the very person you put there. And you vote...... Need I say more

The first sentence says it all for you and most others in this thread. People just open their mouth without knowing how to score boxing.
Well let me school you, there is 4 scoring factors:
1.Effective aggressiveness- which pacman may have been the aggressor but he wasn't effective.
2.Ring generalship- The ring general controls the pacethe fight but utilizing the whole ring.
3.Defense- The ability to do what it takes to not get hit while still scoring yourself. We can all agree that mayweather is the best defensive boxer in the sport.
4.Clean and hard punches- while they both got some mayweathers punches were way cleaner.
