At Las Vegas:

Floyd Mayweather, by unanimous decision on Saturday, defeated Manny Pacquiao to win not only Mr. Pacquiao's World Boxing Organization welterweight championship, but also to hang on to his own World Boxing Association and World Boxing Council belts as well.

Mr. Mayweather's career record is now 48-0 while Manny's record falls to 57-6-2.

In the fight, Floyd fought strategically, landed counterpunches, and held off any of Manny's rallies as he controlled the pace.

Of the estimated $300 million-dollar purse, Floyd was guaranteed a 60% cut, win or lose.
