Carl Froch: 'I gave Manny Pacquiao two rounds against Floyd Mayweather Jr'

By , Reporter
Britain's world champion Carl Froch argues that Manny Pacquiao only won two rounds during his points defeat to Floyd Mayweather Jr in Las Vegas.

World super-middleweight champion Carl Froch believes that Floyd Mayweather Jr delivered a "one-sided whooping" to Manny Pacquiao in Las Vegas.

The 38-year-old American maintained his unbeaten professional record with a points victory over the Filipino after an assured 12 rounds of counter-attacking and defence.

Briton Froch believes that Pacquiao was outclassed by Mayweather at the MGM Grand Arena.

He told Sky Sports News: "That was a one-sided whooping. I gave him [Pacquiao] two rounds at best and for boxing fans that was a purist's fight.

Froch added: "He [Mayweather] deserves every single penny he gets."

Mayweather is expected to return to the ring in September for what is expected to be a farewell bout.
