Alex yeah, Floyd 2 yeah but hell no, not Floyd 1, Mayweather barely won that fight buy a round or 2.
Khan had a clear points advantage long before the 9th, yes Maidana came on strong for a couple rounds towards the end and it was fun but Maidana was looking for a KO because there was ZERO chance of him winning on points. Plus Khan also got the KD.
Khan started off better than all them. But also finished worse, that's why I have him last. Alexander simply owned him. It's one of those fights that Maidana fans forget due to the sheer dominance. Floyd 2 I have second because Marcos abandoned his gameplan before the fight was signed.
He took a canelo approach and did horribly. Their first fight he started off great then got figured out. I had him losing handily. Tough fight? yes. A clear win? Yes as well
I feel like Maidana was in his prime after beating Broner and facing Floyd in the first. He was rendered completely useless in part 2...I feel he was hella green when facing Morales. It's like an early career type of thing. khan got it in but I feel Maidana won that fight. Alexander took his soul tho...
For me Mayweather beat Maidana the best..He fought him twice and out of the two fights I only gave Maidana a total of 5 rds..Alexander fought Maidana in a 10 rd fight,so imo that's not as good as Khan winning a 12 rd fight..I also thought Khan did a very good job on Maidana..I only gave Maidana like 3 rds in that fight..
Tbh Alexander controlled the fight better then both(Khan and Mayweather)he also had the shortest time in between the ropes with him..I voted Floyd,with Khan coming in 2end and then Alexander..
You gave only 3 rounds to Maidana in the khan fight?That's Hilarious...How many rounds you gave to bradley against pacquiao? -5 ?
Obviously it's Khan since he fought the freshest version of Maidana, not the shot version Alexander and Floyd fought. 90% of the boxing world thought Khan would get knocked out, but instead Khan dominated Maidana for the fight and nearly stopped him in the first round after dropping him, but decided to let him live so that Khan could enjoy administering a 12 round boxing lesson.
Alexander fought a visibly unfit out of shape version of Maidana who was now a broken man after being humiliated by Khan. Mayweather fought a fit Maidana but again, he'd already been beaten and broken by Khan, he was never the same fighter after Khan destroyed him.
So Khan is the man who destroyed Maidana, Alexander and Floyd just fought a broken man, a far inferior version of Maidana.
Khan destroyed maidana? Did you watch the fight?And the scorecards?
I'm sick of this ****ing khantards...
OP also forgot to put that this version of Maidana gives shot Morales his retirement papers, Alexander his 2nd defeat i believe at that time, and Khan an early Garcia KO. You guys seriously sit up here with a straight face and act like Floyd fought the same Maidana from years ago. I don't even like floyd but the hate is strong in here.
Maidana is not any different. He always had a jab etc... and was awkward.
Watch him VS Kotelnik...
Styles make fights. Floyd had a rough time in rounds with people who bring it. Zab, Castillo, Cotto etc... until he figures them out.
It wasn't Floyd that's for sure, that's why its confusing Floyd is no1 p4p. He became p4p no1 by beating people less impressively than his peers.
Whether it was against Madaina, Hatton, Miguel, or DLH and SSM. WHoever Floyd has beat, you can almost guarantee someone beat them better than Floyd did.
That's why FLoyd has to justify he is no1 by fighting GGG.
Alexander, Floyd II, Floyd I then Khan

Don't lie to yourself Dirk and try to revise history . Khan wasn't in control for 10 1/2 rds.
I haven't watched the fight in a bout year so I might not be 100% accurate but he built a nice lead in the first 4 rds and a pt deduction in the 5th which I think I gave 9-9 But after that it was downhill and he hung on to W.
Alexander made Maidana looks like they were in different leagues from start to finish 10 rds or not, Khan built a early lead and got beat down in the second half and barely survived for a W.
But if you want to start a thread about that fight and break down round by round how you scored it that's cool it'd be interesting to get your take on it , you being a khan fan and seeing where we differ because I have that fight closer then most.
Even though I'm not a Khan fan Everytime I write about that fight I got to say that 1st rd body shot is absolutly insane and maybe one of my favorites. Just the way Khan hit him with 2 perfect shots was perfect but how Maidana managed to get up from that and not only survive but to turn the tides after that was equally impressive.
Maidana sat down at the end of the 9th round against Khan and looked a beaten man. He took a long time to even get off his stool. He was visibly frustrated because he'd been pretty convincingly outboxed.
Saying Khan got "beat down" in the second half of the fight i.e meaning from the 6th on is just a blatant fabrication of the truth.
Actually, Khan was pretty much in full control until midway through the 10th round. Alexander only fought a 10 round fight.

Alexander Did the best job by far.
Khan fans are funny acting like he didn't survive the fight to get the win against Maidana. That first rd body shot was absolutly sick and Khan built a good lead at the halfway point but then in the second half Khan got absolutly smashed and hung on for dear life. It's the least impressive by far.

And you have a f*cking clue? Seriously dude get over yourself.
You act as if everything you say is straight from God & cannot be proven wrong.
Re: my earlier post, just end it now.
You got no idea what Ive done , but I know you havent boxed your posts scream that loud and clear , thats why you cant relate to anything that comes from a deeper place , thats what pissus me off , when kids like you mouth off and you have no clue about the sport other than your fanboys perspective .

The Mayweather fight was the opposite the first 4 -5 rounds Maidana gave Mayweather problems but then Maywesther pretty much shut him out in the second half.

Alexander, but i think Alexander fought the worst version of Chino, one that was contemplating retirement and if its true what they said in the conference call before the first fight of Floyd vs Chino took place, Chino was also sick in the Alexander fight. But Alexander was a bs way to win with his 119 clinches during the fight. I don't think anyone has a easy time with Chino without holding.
Did the point go over your head again , why are Manny fans such retards .
I will say it again , a fighter can be really up for a particular fight and can be just going through the motions in another , time dont have a lot to do with it while being really motivated does , when they fight Floyd he motivates the sht out of them , does that make sense to your feeble brain .
Maybe you fools should just go and have a go at this sport because you got no fcking idea on what its like being a professional fighter .
I'm sure I've asked you this in numerous threads but what the fuk does Manny Pacquiao have to do with this thread?
