The fight wore on and Mayweather's elusiveness become a source of consternation. Pacquiao couldn't hit him when he was running out of time and the people were not impressed.

But Mayweather showed he wasn't afraid to take it either and he even taunted Pacquiao in a 'ain't so bad' Rocky style manner.
And, although boos met Mayweather's celebration, he didn't seem to care.

Thankfully, Pier Morgan was there to clear it up and he stuck his neck on the line too with a bold statement.

Pacquiao might've done all the chasing, but the stats speak for themselves. There was a clear winner.
