it was more after the 8th-9th round for me and maidana stole a round or 2 late.

I'm shyting on Maidona because he fought like a desperate amatuer.... Anything for a win I guess.
Low blows.. pushing out of bounds... Hitting behind head... He showed no technique, shyt was embarasssing.
Yeah. It's a real, awkward, unappealing, brawling style for the most part. He should really try MMA, tho.
Where's the ring, tho?
Hate it had to be Quan gettin' slayed... at least he was there.
You might be right man. Just a tad slower it seems. Think it had something to do with that style of fighting from his opponent.
Shyt gon' hurt niccas feelings.

if it wasn't for maidana's stamina issues he probably has enough to pull out the victory. his punch output and awkward punching angles were giving floyd fits. you could see the worry on floyd's face. floyd is just always gonna have issues with volume punches...if a fighter lets floyd get comfortable and pot shot, it's a wrap. when they smother him and don't give him room to get off he gets frustrated and sloppy. I also think maidana's slight height advantage was part of the problem for floyd too. the shoulder roll wasn't as effective because chino was coming over the top. don't really think it was age why floyd looked slower, I think maidana's constant pressure and attack just took a toll on him. floyd hasn't had to work that hard defensively since castillo. all of a sudden broner's loss to maidana doesn't look that bad

MMA people need to stop commenting on boxing, they think the person who is the aggressor and throws a bunch of punches (most of em missing) will win, and especially if it's against Mayweather. I don't think they have the eye to see Floyd slipping most of those punches and landing the cleaner shots.
id say whoever fights floyd in the near future that has fast hands will make things very interesting for him

No, you just can't grasp the simple concept of a fighter being effective you dumb fukk. It's irrelevant if he was brawling or not. If anybody could do that to Floyd then they would have done it by now. Keep pretending like you know shyt about boxing yourself when you're just a Floyd Mayweather fan because All Access and 24/7 got your dikk hard, foh.
Nah I'm a super Floyd stan but that fight could and probably should have been a draw
CASUAL.
I TALK BOXING DAMN NEAR EVERYDAY AT WORK.
WHAT DID CHINO DO?
HE CAUGHT MONEY WITH ABOUT 6 CLEAN PUNCHES THE WHOLE FIGHT...
AND ABOUT 3 OF THOSE WERE IN THE 1ST ROUND.
HE LOOKED LIKE AN AMATEUR WITH ALL THAT WILD SWINGING.
CHINO WAS BUSY WHEN MAY WOULD LAY ON THE ROPES
BUT HE WASNT HITTING HIM WITH shyt...
JUST SWINGING AWKWARDLY...
HE WAS OUTCLASSED EVERY TIME MAY DECIDED TO STAY IN THE MIDDLE IF THE RING.
BULL RUSHING A nikka INTO THE ROPES ISNT BOXING.
MONEY HIT HIM WITH CLEANER SHOTS WITH HIS BACK ON THE ROPE THAN HE WAS ABLE TO DO IN ANY POSITION.
MAY HURT HIM A FEW TIMES...
MAY WAS NEVER IN DANGER OF GETTING HURT.
I CALLED THE SCORE BEFORE IT WAS ANNOUNCED IT AND I WAS RIGHT.
YOU SEEM MAD HURT FOR WHATEVER REASON.
Yeah.... I stopped reading when you said he looked like an amateur. That alone tells me you've never seen amateurs fight. And if you tell me you have, I won't believe you. You're just running with what Floyd said about Pacquiao/Bradley and running with it.
If I'm mad or hurt it would be becuz I've seen some pretty shytty scoring from judges lately. Probably within the last year. Just really bad judging.
The margin wasn't that big. I personally don't think he won but I will say it was close and if he did win it was really close.

The judge that scored the draw like aggressive, busier fighters regardless if they land punches or not. Clearly Maidana was not accurate and i'm sure his connect percentage was very low compared to Mayweather. But Maidana was the busier fight and most rounds pressed Mayweather against the ropes in which some judges would consider that an edge to win a round as well.

You honestly I thought he was distracted with all that shyt going on with his ex. You don't go on the radio pouring your heart out over some bytch the day before your fight. So I was worried he wasn't focused. That and the fact Maidana had the 17lb weight come up, so you knew he was gonna be strong.
