I didn't because in that fight, I felt like Roy did the best he could do and hadahad a tough fight.

This fight, I feel like Floyd could've done more, but wasted the 1st half of the trying to "prove" that he could stand toe to toe with Maidana.

I think Maidana's performance was a combination of what Maidana was doing, but also, what Floyd WASN'T doing. He didn't fight Maidana like normally fights and Maidana was extremely prepared to get the KO or die trying.

I have no doubts Floyd is gonna destroy Maidana in a rematch now that he knows what to expect. The Rematch will look like the 2nd half of this fight.

Maidana did good, but not good enough to win. I compare this fight to Jon Jones vs Alexander Gustafson for my brehs that watch UFC as well
I don't even wanna see a rematch. maidana performed well enough to deserve it, but we all know he's gonna get dominated if they fight again. floyd knows what to expect now, and he has a whole training camp to train for it. not to mention the next ref will be stopping the action everytime they go to the ropes. i wouldnt be mad if it happened because maidana earned the payday, but i'd rather see floyd move on. but I don't think he will...with al the talking people are doing, I think floyd wants the rematch just as maidana does.

Khan is still runn and hold, his strong points of the past is diminished, how do you have issues touching someone walking straight to you with his hands completely down.........Collazo aint no puncher and no worlder beater and he still buzzed Khan, Khan is pretty much food at WW, if I could carve a path for him, Broner or Alexander is the way to go, he's pretty much food outside of that...............


He would have to drag Broner up to 147 in order to get a victory? He might as well come back down to 140 too then:manny:

mayweather looked like shyt. still won. :ehh:

he will avoid khan like the plague tho :sas1:
Mayweather aint look like shyt, Floyd performance was super strong, still only got like 26% of shots landed on him, whil landing nearly 60%, I watched 4 times yesterday the fight breakdowns like this to me:


Round One was a strong Maidana round, Maidana was smart enough to know with his rare power and near 20 pound weight advantage to simply fall forward and keep winging punches, and when he did get close enough hold at the hip with one arm and rip the body........Chino tired himself out at the end of one

Chino tries the same strategy but is still tired, now the fight is in the middle of th ring and Floyd is pretty much picking him apart, Maidana rallys to pucsh Floyd to the ropes but he isn't anding anything clean....Toss up round

Round 3 Floyd is opening up......Easy Floyd Round

Round 4 Floyd is coming into his own warming up around the usual time easily winning the round, then a headbutt causes the cut, Floyd game plan changes, he knows Maidana sees blood, boxing is now out the question, he starts winging big hooks to keep Maidana off of him, Floyd still does enough to win this round.....Floyd goes to tcorner corcenred as ever saying he can't see, only to be reassured by SR

Round 5 Chino had enough of a break he's back storming and he sees the blood, he's unleashing, Floyd is looking sloppy, he cant see still so his perception and timing is off, he abandons his jab completely and continues to whip heavy hooks, Chino round

Round 6 The cut is stopped and Floyd is fine, Floyd does enough to win this round bu is still pacing himself.....

Round 7 on the onslaught continued to pretty much the end with Maidana being rugged in rounds 8 and 11 but couldnt win those rounds from the clean shots Floyd was landing

All in all I felt Chino won rounds 1, 5, 8, and possibly 11 thats all, and 8 and 11 could have went either way.......Maidana aint land clean enough to get credit for those close rounds......Never before in my life did I see a fighter get lightweight commended for being dirty, oh Maidana with the Mui Thai knee, what type of shyt is that, nikka was mixing low blows and his combos with zero fukks given n shyt.......Aside from his dirtiness he didnt impresss

This..............Khan is still food at 147

Like I said last week, Chino and Floyd are best WW's....But no way does Khan catapult, Porter or Thurman without facing them, when Collazo was walking towards him with his hands down with zero fukks given like he knew he was supposed to take a job and still he managed to hurt and buzz Khan, Khan aint shyt..............

Jab when you can't see out your right eye and possibly eat over overhand right:comeon:


Floyd faced adversity and kept storming back, after 7 Floyd was walking Maidana down looking like a painter whipping beautiful fast effortless body combos.....Maidana was pretty much relegated to leaning on Floyd with his near 20 pound advantage the 2nd half of the fight he wasn't at all, aside from when he threw lowblows forcing May to drop his guard and shoot a overhand right............

From the start I knew Floyd would have a ruff outing, those who watched Floyd career remember how he got touched and had to go into the doghouse for the victory for the awkward Augustus.....Maidana simply had the power and size to bring everything together

I think Floyd tried to "PBF" Maidana at the beginning of the fight, but that fighter is dead at 37 years old.


Once he started fighting like "Money" mayweather, he took control of the fight and started landing cleaner and easier while being hit less.


The rematch is all "Money" Mayweather domination:manny:

How do you look like shyt while landing 65% of your power punches, but your opponent gets credit for landing only 34% of his:camby:
