    I had draw or a 7-5 Mayweather. Don't think you can score it for Maidana.

      Maidana just fought a much smarter fight then Guerrero or Canelo. They let Floyd do his thing in the middle of the ring, Guerrero smothered all his work on the ropes.

      Maidana really had success the first 6 rounds, though Floyd still landed often as well, particularly the 2nd where I felt he won the round, and the 5th. Floyd then took over the 2nd half. Take the beer goggles off, and tell me who landed most of the punches rounds 7-12.....it was Floyd clearly, though Chino still made him work.
      You need to get with reality.

      He is clearly slowing down at an extremely rapid pace.

        I am surprised by both of these responses. I had it a draw at worst.

            Floyd was laying on the ropes but he wasn't being hit clean. All the clean work in the fight came from Mayweather. Maidana smothered everything or just completely missed.
            It means what it sounds like it means, you are doing more of what you want to do and are applying your fight plan. Maidana was missing some and landing some but too little work from Floyd in some rounds. I mean no robbery and many close rounds have no problem with Floyd getting the nod but am very surprised how close this was and people can make good cases for Maidana winning narrowly.

              7-5 Mayweather. I can see a draw.

              Chino brought the heat, Floyd was super uncomfortable in there. Maidana started to fade though.

                It was a draw 114-114 and the one judge who called it that got it spot on round by round.

                  7-5 Maidana, he dictated the pace for most of the fight. He outworked Floyd 2-1, landed just as many punches and landed more power punches. The crowd boo'ed the decision, but it was a close fight.

                    I think your score cards comes from your heart and not your head.

                    Competitive fight for sure but obviously a "draw at worst" is silly.

                      Maidana 115-113

                      I didn't see Floyd win a round till 6. Floyd did pick it up the second half but not enough on my card. Jim Grey saying Mayweather made it "toe to toe" was a bunch of BS. Money was taken out of his comfort zone and imo and took much more damage than Madonna. El chino walked out of there looking like he just finished a sparring session.
