He's saying it would of been worse with those non padded gloves. And he's right.
i wasn't aware there's a different of amount of impact when it comes to landing a blow to the brain stem

I know all those rabbit punchesFloyd would easily win a rematch and a fair amount of those overhand rights don't even count in scoring since they hit the top and back of Floyds head
i wasn't aware there's a different of amount of impact when it comes to landing a blow to the brain stem..because the brain stem is more resilient through a certain amount of padding from one glove and not another glove

No way Maidana performs at that level for 12 rounds. I think floyd still would of won. how you can have your opponent stand right infront of you and land only 200 out of 600 punches is beyond me. Floyd is just that good.
Against Floyd: Maidana threw 858 punches and landed 221 punches on 26% connect rate. He missed 637 punches in the fight.
Against Broner: Maidana threw 964 punches and landed 269 punches on 28% connect rate. He missed 695 punches in the fight.
But, yall didnt take that in consideration when Broner fought Maidana though. Yall just say Broner got his ass whooped, so why should I give Floyd that benefit of the doubt or not count Maidana's punches thrown?
He threw more punches, landed more punches and had your boy flailing on the ground like how martins "Dragon Fly Jones" character would be when after he refused to pay Kenji.
Nikka had to be helped back to the dressing room like a cripple that lost his cane
Classless ass didn't even give Maidana dap.
Great response
He threw more punches and missed damn near 700 more of em![]()

Both Floyd and AB stood right in front of Maidana, except Broner stood there for 12 rounds, while Floyd stood there for the first 5 rounds.
Maidana took away what Floyd wanted to do rounds 1-5 and once he finally adjusted, or started using the Money Mayweather style instead of a bad impersonation of the PBF style (AB's style), then he started to find success.
@krackdagawd....this is what I was talking about with Floyd doing the bad PBF impersonation (or AB's style, because my boy dont got the PBF reflexes)
Isn't it about the ones you land though?
Ray Charles could see that Broner got beat up.![]()
Breh, if memory serves correct...didnt Broner go flying in the first or second round?
you'll haev to excuse me, he got knocked down so much i forget when each one took place.
but yeah, he went flying before he even received 100 punches. Being defensive is not just about avoiding shots, its about deflecting shots from areas that will cause you to do the
the differenec is he didnt get to hit floyd cleanly enough to make him go flying like he did broner. and The times that madaina did get a clear shot, floyd backing away and covering up takes alot of power away and lessons the impact.
Floyd fighting madaina really shows you how big the margain really is that seperates him from broner.
Devon Alexander fighting Maidana really shows you how big the margin really is that seperates him from Floyd.
Alexander had no problems beating Maidana with ease![]()

I finally understand why your salty ...your mad that Floyd made Broner look amateur..Got it.
Carry on.
I think Floyd gamed the public with this performance.Now he's gonna cake on a rematch with a guy who the general public really thinks fought an even fight with him.
Floyd knows there aren't anymore names out there if he's not gonna negotiate with Arum. He won't fight the young beastly nigs(i.e. Porter) because the money don't justify the risk for him at this point.
He was voluntarily going to the ropes from the start of the fight. Maidana was competitive, but not really landing anything clean or effective the whole night. His best shots were illegal ones and he didn't hurt Floyd the whole night. Floyd said he could've boxed, moved, stayed in the middle of the ring and won a boring fight easily. Coming off his Canelo performance, there's nothing to insinuate he couldn't have done that.
I think Maidana's awkwardness made it tough on Floyd to counter in the beginning and Floyd should really make it a point to get off first at times. He wasn't as offensive minded as he should have been, but still clearly beat dude. Roy was in a war for his life with Tarver the 1st fight. There is no parallel at all. Also Roy would've washed Tarver in the 2nd fight if he wasn't so over confident and leaving himself open like he did. He fought that fight like he did the second Griffin fight where he was out to prove a point. Roy came in like a madman and let Griffin land some haymakers on him as well, he just wasn't phased by it.
You fell for it easily
THAT WAS MY POINT!
Dude is giving Floyd credit for making Maidana miss alot of punches, I point out he missed more punches against Broner but it doesnt matter because Broner still lost. You cannot deduct points because a fighter missed punches....it's not a basketball game and there's no credit for "punching %".
Maidana's aggressiveness was very valuable in this fight and effective in limiting Floyd in the 1st 5 rounds from doing what he wanted to do
