Comments Thread For: Mayweather is Tested, Overcomes Maidana To Unify

[lets rumble]

I had 5 people watching here and all 5 had floyd winning by 1 or two rounds.
2 of them had big money on maidana and we're being biased and had floyd winning by 1 round .
There is no way maidana won that fight .

His effort showed isn't enough to dethrone the A side in his own hometown. Like u people don't know how boxing works. If you want to give Maidana credit for punching while holding over in the corner then that fine but the majority of judges who know boxing don't and let's not act like Maidana was doing ish in the middle of the ring squared up cuz he wasn't...Floyd win easy 8-4 it was another sparring match...

I had Floyd 7-5 but that wasn't easy and it wasn't easy to score. Not sure what fight you were watching on the ropes but it was floyd holding maidana's right arm all night and maidana hitting with his left. Weeks should have let that go as the announcers repeatedly said all night long. As a ref, you shouldn't allow a fighter (mayweather) to take advantage of holding when the aggressor (maidana) had a hand free and was using it.

Maidana CLEARLY Swept The First 6 rounds; NO WAY Maidana Lost The FINAL 6!!!

Just a real screw job just like Bradley-Pacquiao I & Bradley-Provodnikov. Just a real shame. I said all along, Maidana does not intimidate. He flat man'd down Floyd, and beat him up tonight; the first 6 rounds weren't even close. Floyd very concerned and uncomfortable all night. He KNEW. There were no 10-8 rounds, mathematically NO way Floyd wins a decision tonight, NOR did he deserve one. With a live mic, Floyd says if the fans want them to do it again, they'll do it again, but that's all BS... Floyd wants no part of Maidana, he wants no part of Thurman, he wants no part of Pacquiao, he won't fight Porter after this performance.... and Khan beating Collazo does not warrant a Mayweather pay day. Khan needs to go beat a "name". Boner looked horrible.

I'm seeing people saying Maidana won the first 6 rounds. Are you kidding me? I hope you aren't this ****** in your everyday lives. You have to LAND punches to win a boxing match.

I think Floyd figured out Maidana after the first 6 rounds. I don't see how anyone could have Maidana winning anything the 2nd half aside from the 8th. And Floyd stole a couple early rounds, the 2nd and the 5th.

Close fight.

The 8 round was close Mayweather landed some good body shots I scored it for him

[Mr Ribtickler]

A close and entertaining fight ladies and gentlemen! Didnt agree with the scorecards,and I am by no means a Mayweather hater, but he is Definately NOT TBE! Not a chance... Good nights boxing though.

[Hitchslap1]

Me & my friends saw it as a draw & that's with us being generous to Floyd.

You can't win a fight on the ropes for 12-rounds. I gave the close swing-rounds to Maidana for his ferocity & sheer will to fight like the champion.

Mayweather didn't do enough. And how many times did he complain? He was clearly uncomfortable & did his better work in the later parts of the fight.

Floyd Sr will let his son know what just happened there.

I'm shocked!

I had floyd winning but he did look alot slower

He looked like he over did in it in training I also thought It seemed like he hurt his arm early wrestling around with Maidana when he went back to his corner but he didn't say anything about it. It was one of the meh nights for Floyd. I personally thought he looked worse in the Cotto fight here it looked like Floyd really wasn't even trying after he whether ed the early storm he seemed rather disinterested..

[Porter's Dad]

I had it 7-5 Floyd. But with all this talk of health comes first/life after boxing/I don't want to be a vegetable, I am not sure he wants to take a re-match against a savage like Chino. He would win again but Floyd gets freaked out by punishment, and he took some tonight.

[GreatestIam]

Rewatching the fight. Floyd won the 1st 2rds
