Who hits Harder - FLOYD OR MAIDANA?

[laudium]

Truth is - If Maidana Hits Harder than Floyd - then Khan Lasts 12 and ends up upsetting Floyd in a 12 Round Decision. I said it first

Why you trolling bro? A better argument who hit harder keith thurman or maidana /Floyd mayweather or Paulie

They are different, Maidana has more brute force but he is not exactly going to catch you with something tricky. Floyd has that sharpness that comes from speed and proper tight technique plus he is much more likely to walk you into something you have no clue about.

Some people can take one but not the other (brute force or sharpness) but both can be exponentially more effective if the guy does not think he is about to be hit (or knows he is about to be hit but can not do anything about it).

Who's Maidana's best KO victory over?

Who's Mayweather's best KO win over?

Put it this way I would rather take a flush shot from Floyd than a flush shot from Maidana. Maidana hits harder no question about it. Floyd hits you flush more with his skills opening up more opportunites. A slick fighter or a fast one can avoid Maidana's much heavier artillery easier than Floyds though. Khan will only be a frontrunner much like Judah was until Floyd gets adjusted to his speed and picks him completely apart in the second half of the fight. He will hit Khan with much greater frequency than Maidana did. Even if he does get the stoppage it doesn't prove he is a harder puncher than Maidana. Khan is not the same fighter he was then when Ariza had his punch resistance up. I'd favor Maidana by KO in a Khan rematch today. With Floyd I can see him scoring a late round stoppage but I wouldn't feel confident enough about that to bet on it.

Agreed, Maidana puts today's Khan in a body bag. Or maybe in 5 sandbags to use in flood control.

Well, just because Maidana hits harder than Mayweather and couldn't stop Khan doesn't mean Mayweather can't stop Khan.

Exactly.


Khan only lasts 12 with Floyd if Floyd has hand troubles pop up in the fight. If not he doesnt see 12.

Floyd could stop Khan cold with one punch at ANY time in this fight.
