Floyd Mayweather Defeats Manny Pacquiao

Floyd Mayweather Jr. definitively answered the question that has consumed boxing for more than five years.


Yes, Mayweather is indeed the greatest fighter of this generation, proving so Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena by masterfully outboxing Manny Pacquiao over 12 rounds to prevail via unanimous decision in the so-called “Fight of the Century.”

Judge Dave Moretti scored it 118-110, while Burt Clements and Glenn Feldman had it 116-112.

The bout between two of the greatest fighters of all time was in play since late 2009 and was originally being discussed for a March 2010 date. Mayweather had just ended a brief retirement with a shutout victory over Pacquiao rival Juan Manuel Marquez that September. Pacquiao responded two months later with one of the biggest victories of his career, a stoppage of Miguel Cotto.
