THE OFFICIAL Floyd Mayweather vs Marcos Maidana THREAD 5/3 SHOWTIME PPV

[UserNameless]

@TheNig is just trolling at this point. I can understand folks getting blinded by the perception of the bruiser/brawling style. I can understand giving kudos to him for using that style to fluster May a bit, and making it entertaining... but to just deny the numbers, even for a casual, is foolish.

Niccas on ESPN is bananas. Maidana threw damn near 1000 punches, ONLY LANDED 25% and people are arguing that he was robbed? What fight were these fools watching? Just because Floyd got CUT doesn't mean the fight was rigged

Maidana didn't get robbed but who gives a fukk about accuracy. The goal of boxing is to hit your opponent. Why should I care how many punches a guy throws? All that is important is what lands.

Boxing is not scored on aggression brother

You know nothing about boxing.

• Clean punching: “Clean” punches are punches that land on the face/side of the head and the front/side of the torso.
• Effective aggressiveness: A boxer demonstrates this trait when he consistently and successfully moves forward in a controlled manner.
• Ring generalship: The judges favor the fighter who controls the pace and style of the bout.
• Defense: Boxers that skillfully incorporate defensive maneuvers receive credit in this area.

i can t say he came out flat...you see how he warmed up in the back with uncle roger?..thats what he always does..thats where im saying age is starting to take hold on his body..the body just doesn't do what it used to do..especially for someone who fought 18 years..but he cant really afford to have too many more of those warm up late moment..not in the divisions where he fights at

the thing is porter is the only other fighter can I see doing Mayweather like that, plus I think if this fight was Jr Middle, it would have been a whole different story
nobody expected Maidana to come in so heavy, and nobody expecting him to fight the way he did

in the rematch they already know what he going to do, so its gonna be easy work

Khan will more than likely be next, he seems to fade in fights

that leaves one more fight

Thurman and Porter will like have to fight each other before getting a shot at May, I think Porter with youth on his side is the only person who can beat mayweather

but he can fight pac instead of him, and then retire

what?!?!?...boxing is judged off of hitting and getting hit, nothing else...you don't judge off 'aggression'...

Do you watch boxing or did u start with Mayweather?

You know nothing about reading. It states Effective aggressiveness not, aggressiveness alone

 

[FukkaPaidEmail]

Because idiots disrespect this man on the regular.

Nikka is 37, undefeated and still beating up nikkas with ease and the first thing to come to your mind is he isnt what he used to be?



Incase you havent noticed, hes not 24 years old anymore

What a stupid thing to say

It's a stupid thing to make an observation of a fighter?

This nikka Floyd is like God to you dudes,he's above any type of criticism.

dude had his head down swinging away like a damn fool. not even lookin where he was throwin. he was outclassed. thats why he started flailing around and trynna wrestle instead of box.

A lot of this bullshyt is from Casuals and Floyd stans that are downplaying the competitiveness of the fight. Of course Maidana's connect % was going to be low. He went in there trying to be busy and make the fight ugly. He accomplished that mission and won at least 4 rounds. He lost because he's fight a true ATG, but there were many close rounds because he made Floyd work for it. He wasn't outclassed or anything, like Guerrero and Canelo.

Anybody that follow FM seen this many times ...his opponent get him on the ropes and rough him up...but they don't land clean that's the problem... Cotton hatton de LA hoya Augustus costillo charges even Ortiz got Floyd on the ropes but didn't land nothing but a few body shots and chopping rights...Floyd eventually take over and find his range and pick roll and counter on the on the inside

 

[Kaypain]

I guess the point of my original posts is nikkas are mayweather dikkriders. I understand they like Mayweather due to persoanlity and whatnot, but they should at least try to be slightly objective when it comes actual boxing. Again, I don't give a fukk who wins, so that's just my opinion on the matter.

All I saw was dude showing aggression by "brawling" and throwing over the head punches that mostly where elbows to the back of the head.

Pretty much.
