Here are the judges scorecards.
Sorry but Floyd was losing the fight in the first half of the fight. Yet 2 judges had Maidana losing with the following scores 4-2! No way was Maidana going to win this one if the judges scored this fight the way they did. Imagine, Maidana could have continued to do the same in the 2nd half of the fight (as he did the first half) and still lose 8-4 by 2 judges!
Looking at how those 2 judges scored it, YES IT WAS A ROBBERY as Maidana deserved a lot better.

Floyd had a very slow start and lost a majority of the first 6 rounds (Think of Floyd fans excuses on Castillo fight).
If you give Maidana 4-2 in first 6 rounds, with that alone, Floyd couldn't have won this fight unless he pulled a 6-0 or 5-1 in the last 6 rounds ..... and he didn't do that.
Even with those pathetic judges, for 2 judges, Floyd won 4-2 in the last 6 rounds. Not 6-0 and not 5-1.
It was atleast a draw. To be honest most of the rounds were easy to score. Maidana won most of the early rounds, mayweather came back and took majority of the mid rounds. I thought chino won the 12th.
You don't get points for missing all night with your right, head butting your opponent and slamming them as if you are in a WWE match. Maidana lost clear and the judges were spot on. Sad Tony Weeks who was supposed to his job decided to take an off day today.
So many of the first 6 or 7 rounds were really, really close. I think Maidana had a couple of clear rounds, maybe a third. Can't remember exactly.
Not even close to a robbery, though, come on.
Burt Clements had it 4-2 Mayweather after 6 rounds. What fight was he watching? I don't think Maidana was ever going to dominate down the stretch but I felt he won enough early rounds(combined with a couple of late ones) to win the fight.
I think my scorecard was identical to that draw. Gotta remember the name of that judge. That's a guy I can trust for future fights.
EDIT: Damn he was one the judges that almost gave Juanma a gift in the Salido rematch. There's no one I can trust in the world.
