Tedy Atlas said he scored it 117-112, and that the judge that had it even should be investigated. 8-4, 9-3 is about how I saw it. Floyd was clearly landing the clearer shots and Chino threw a lotta wild punches, most of which weren't landing. Floyd had very few moments where he was landing at will like we're used to seeing him do. So if you wanna give Chino all the close rounds based on him forcing the action, being aggressive, and basically outhustling Floyd, fine. But to me, that's not the proper way to score a fight.All of them had Mayweather winning like 7-5 or 6-5-1 from what I recall. The scorecards were fine. I thought the fight could've gone either way, but no way in hell did Floyd win 9-3, like the official judges had it.
They were going crazy over that because Maidana forced Floyd to fight his fight. Pushing him to the ropes and forcing him to cover up for large parts of the round. It wasn't so much the punches, but the ring generalship that Maidana was showing that surprised everyone (not just the commentators). However, they were getting wet over Mayweather missing 5 punches in a row. The replays clearly showed Maidana dodging punches and Showtime was just talking about how Mayweather was landing these clean punches on him when the punches weren't landing. It was weird to say the least.Comment

It wasn't a robbery giving it to Floyd.
It also wouldn't have been a robbery if Maidana was given the decision.
Having said that, if the roles were reversed, and Maidana was p4p#1 and the cash cow, and Mayweather was the challenger, and that exact same fight occurred, we all know Maidana would have got the decision.Comment

Well, we know they'll do the rematch in September and it'll do better numbers. It allows Floyd to see who he'll face in May & September of 2015, but that's if he beats Maidana this time or if he loses, we could see Maidana vs. Mayweather 3.Comment

Well he was allowed to wear everlast gloves. But he had to take new ones as it should be, not manipulated ones.
Mayweather is there for the taking. Nowhere close did he look like a p4p 1 tonight. I had it a draw.Comment

if I want to bet on a fight I find out who atlas says will win and I bet on the other guy. his opinion is meaninglessTedy Atlas said he scored it 117-112, and that the judge that had it even should be investigated. 8-4, 9-3 is about how I saw it.
