He stayed on the ropes because he doesnt have the strength to hold back a young Bull. Every other fight gets the "past prime" reasoning except Floyd
      Its almost laughable how little credit Maidana gets. Hes so underrated and improved with arcia and Ariza, hes peaking right now and WILL be one of the top 3 Welterweights for the next 5 years post Mayweather. i dont think Mayweather looked old, people said the same after the cotto fight, Mayweather doesnt have the power to keep stronger guys from mauling him, but theyy lack stamina to sustain it. Mayweather was in tough last night

          Manny fans are just mad that Floyd was a 100times more exciting than Manny was and that goes against everything they hold dear.

          Maidana is just the real deal. And let's not forget that p4p fighter your talking about was in a fight for his life against Provodnikov, Maidana is better than Provo

            So Floyd vs Maidana wasn't more exciting than Pac vs Bradley? Your sad, like really sad. Keep hating a guy you never met for reasons that aren't yours, moron

              And Floyd is more exciting then Manny? Get your eyes checked *****.
              No, I'm not , but YOU are too ****** to see that. What I was doing was proving that the fact he looked good 8 months has no bearing on this fight.

              When did I say he IS more exciting ? No where, I said he was more exciting than Pac was, obviously referring to the Bradley fight. Floyd was much better, his combos against chino were beautiful.

              Ive said how close the fight was, how good Chino was but no, you need Floyd to have been bad, to never have been that good, your the biased one here and don't try ****ing fooling yourself into thinking different

                Mayweather has looked old and slow since the Hatton fight.

                He would loose to Khan right now.

                  Lol Pac creates excitement.

                  Floyd doesn't, his opponents do... I. E cotton, Maidana

                    I think Maidana simply had a good plan the first 5 or so rounds. Floyd figyred him out, just later than normal.

                      Nah. Funny, I remember people thinking like this after Roy Jones struggled with Tarver coming off a whitewashing of Ruiz. Floyd definitely showed his age last night.
