There weren't many who were looking forward to see the Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Andre Berto setto and you can count in one big name who joined the fray — Manny Pacquiao.
Pacquiao, who is currently on the mend after undergoing right shoulder surgery, typified what most of the world did as Mayweather faced off against a less heralded Andre Berto. The Filipino boxer posted on Instagram a video of himself lazily playing with an app on his phone and it came with a caption that says, "What I do when I'm bored. Hehe."
As expected, Mayweather cruised to victory and thus snagging the 49–0 record with a masterful domination of the Haiti-born boxer.
Pacquiao, who lost to Mayweather last May 2 at the MGM Grand via unanimous decision, is expected to return to the ring in early 2016. And as he continues his rehabilitation for the injured shoulder, he is just one of the many personalities in the boxing world who were not afraid to show what they thought of the Sept. 12 fight.
With a reported turnout of just 13,395 and some claims over social media that the Mayweather–Berto tussle tickets were being given for free, it was obvious that the fight didn't exactly turn out to be profitable if you compare it to past Mayweather tiffs.
And as many anticipated, the interesting part was actually the post-game interview wherein Mayweather reiterated he would be hanging it up and focusing on Mayweather Promotions to help out rising boxers under his wing.
For Pacquiao, there is still no word on whom he would fight in 2016. Amir Khan and Kell Brook are reportedly frontrunners to face off against the Filipino boxer but some are still playing with the idea of a Mayweather vs. Pacquiao rematch.
Mayweather's retirement is, of course, not a closed book, seeing that the American boxer had already retired before (2007) and then returned. The only difference between then and now is his age, although Sugar Shane Mosley did make a return despite being in his 40s.
