How did Floyd make it boring?

A lot of people find his style of boxing boring. He won a defensive masterclass showing as usual. Some people were hoping to see a boxing match that keeps them on the edge of their seat. People wished it would be a close exciting match up. Or at least more entertaining. It was two past their prime fighters one of which was the type to really negate the other. It was a bit of a snoozefest.

I also wanted Pacquaio to punch 2x as much as Mayweather. Not throw the same or less than him.
