So, the richest fight in world history has come and gone, but the people of the Philippines can't forget in a hurry the feeling of disappointment the fight brought them.
Many Filipinos gathered in the Filipino city of Marikina to watch live broadcast of the fight with great expectations but were disappointed by the whole show after their hero Pacquiao lost the fight to the undefeated Mayweather.
38-year old Floyd Mayweather beat 36-year old Manny Pacquiao by unanimous decision.
Pacquiao who is a retired singer as well as a politician (presently a member of the Philippine house of representative) blamed a shoulder injury for his defeat.
Mayweather was paid an estimated $179 million, while Pacquiao was paid an estimated $119 million for the fight.
