Floyd is better than manny.
Pure magician in there.
Fight wasn't close.

Mayweather is the best at playing tag ever. Probably great at hide and go seek too.

Is it bad that I was super bored during that fight?

That felt more like a business transaction than a fight. Respect to Floyd though. Boxing is not the style of fighting to stop him.
