Floyd Mayweather cemented his place among the pantheon of boxing greats by improving to 48 wins and no losses with a unanimous decision over Manny Pacquiao on Saturday at the MGM Grand Garden Aerna.
Speaking after the fight, Mayweather says Pacauiao is 'remarkable', but he had what it took to win.
"Manny's (Pacquiao) a remarkable fighter, he's an unbelievable fighter, but I can't just say that he's the toughest fighter that I faced, I can't say he's the hardest puncher that I faced, but I can see why he's where he's at in the sport. As little moves as he tried to make in the fight but to me, having so much experience boxing in so many different styles, I can counter and calculate his moves."
The bout marked Mayweather's 11th consecutive fight at the MGM.
But it was Pacquiao who enjoyed a massive edge in support, even though he was hampered by a shoulder injury.
"I did my best, but my best wasn't good enough. Two weeks before the fight, one week before the fight, my shoulder is getting better and better but not really totally 100 percent. It recovered but at least I can use it, something wrong."
The fight is considered the richest bout in boxing history.
Total revenue was projected to reach 400 million dollars.
