Originally posted by Steak View Postit was a close fight, but I dont see how Morales 'schooled' Maidana in the early rounds. hell, those were some of Maidanas best rounds.
Maidana did good very early and late. Morales picked up a number of rounds inbetween.
ps your pic makes me really hungry!

I missed the first two rounds and gave them to Maidana by default. And still had it 7-5 Morales.

Originally posted by Steak View Posthe landed the cleaner, more damaging punches in some rounds. but just not enough of them. Maidana swept the first two and last two rounds, and did more damage in a few others. Maidana missed a lot of punches, but he still landed more than Morales most the time.
prime Morales would have KOed Maidana, no question. I thought that before the fight. but he just didnt win this fight.

Originally posted by wazaa. View Postapart from round 1. Morales pretty much controlled the entire fight. He dictated the pace and when they were exchanging, Morales landed the more cleaner and effective punches. Morales also ended stringer in almost ever exchange. Maidana did good in the last 2 rounds though.

Originally posted by Steak View Postyoure only remembering the exchanges. Morales was very inactive in a lot of the rounds. Maidana filled in those gaps with punches, and even in exchanges he would land some good shots too. Plus he would hammer at Morales whenever Morales got on the ropes, and although Morales played defense well and kept cool, he was still getting hit.

I thought Maidana's workrate gave him the slight edge. Fight was close though

close fight though.
