MANILA - When Manny Pacquiao said in a post-fight interview that he
thought he won against Floyd Mayweather Jr., HBO reporter Max Kellerman
seemed surprised.
Moments after the judges handed Mayweather his 48th win, Kellerman asked the Filipino: "You thought you won the fight? Why?"
"He didn't do nothing," Pacquiao replied.
"He was always moving outside. It's not easy to throw punches if he's
moving around. But if he stays, then I can throw punches," he explained
to Kellerman, who is also one of the hosts of ESPN's radio show
SportsNation.
The 41-year-old Kellerman insisted, however, that he felt that
Mayweather deservedly won the fight, which he repeated hours later on
his official Twitter account.
"The fight was competitive during some stretches, but ultimately not close. I had it 9-3," Kellerman wrote.
He also took to the social media site to address the criticisms he
received from netizens, who thought that his line of questioning was
"disrespectful" and "opinionated."
