Not to drum excuses for a subpar performance, but Mayweather's....

How do people not get this? All his toughest fights were against guys who could bully him and keep him uncomfortable. There's a pretty obvious common theme between Castillo and Hatton and Cotto and now Maidana. Yet everyone keeps saying pressure fighters are not how you beat Floyd? Why are they the ones who give him his toughest fights then?

You could see this ever since he fought Gregorio "Goyo" Vargas, former jr. featherweight and featherweight champion. He bullied Floyd but just to small to really imposs his will on Floyd.

I do aggree that Floyd lost, Maidanna was relentless and i was the one of many that thought Maidanna was not going to give Floyd a fight, i was wrong.

El Chino performed way better than expected (to the dismay of the haters) and made it close and dirty and all that. But Floyd outperformed him and landed the most meaningful shots.

That's what the judges saw and took into account.
