Manny Pacquiao vs Floyd Mayweather Full Game Replay

The two biggest stars in boxing put their welterweight world titles on the line at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, but Mayweather has insisted that he will prove to the worldwide audience that he is the best fighter in the history of the sport. Floyd Mayweather Jr has claimed victory over Manny Pacquiao on a points decision in Las Vegas to remain unbeaten and move to 48-0 in his career.

 The judges declared the 38-year-old the winner by unanimous verdict as they scored the bout 118-110, 116-112 and 116-112 to allow the American to become the unified welterweight champion by adding Pacquiao's WBO title to his own WBA and WBC belts. Pacquiao had his moments in the fight, especially in round four when he rocked Mayweather, but the undefeated American controlled the majority of the contest and was deservedly given a unanimous verdict.

 The American began the fight in an aggressive fashion as he landed a couple of right hands on the chin of the 36-year-old, using his reach and tight defence to his advantage. Pacquiao responded with a strong second round as he pushed Mayweather into the corner, but was unable to land a telling blow on the American who then caught him with a solid right counter before the bell. The men battled out an even third round before the Filipino launched an assault on the American as he pinned him to the ropes and landed a series of body shots to make an impact in the fight. Mayweather came out with an excellent response in the fifth round as he took the initiative to land a couple of blows to the body of Pacquiao, while avoiding the counter punch from the Filipino.

 Mayweather applied pressure in the opening stages of the seventh to knock Pacquiao out of his rhythm, but the Filipino responded with a right hand, although the American did enough to see off the threat to land further blows to extend his lead in the fight. Pacquiao came out with a powerful left hook in the eighth round to surprise the American, but the 38-year-old hit back with two quick blows on the counter and was solid in defence to ensure that the Filipino could not take the round cleanly. The Filipino failed to land the meaningful blows he required in the ninth round to close the gap on his opponent as Mayweather displayed his quality in defence by weaving away from Pacquiao's range.

 Mayweather's advantage in the bout allowed him to dictate the tempo as he managed to avoid getting into close exchanges with the Filipino and continued to use his reach to fend off his advances as time slipped away. The American produced his strongest round of the bout in the 11th as he landed several shots on Pacquiao to take the fight away from the Filipino with a series of quick-fire jabs, which the 36-year-old was unable to respond to as Mayweather put himself on the brink of victory at the bell. The 38-year-old used his experience in the final round to avoid Pacquiao punching power on the inside, securing a unanimous points decision at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
