        Fight could have gone either way or a draw.

          Im not sure about 3 rounds. I had Maidana winning by 2 rounds, if it was a draw it woiuld have been unfair to Maidana but that wouldn't have been so bad.

          I just don't see how Floyd can have won by landing about 6 punches more than Maidana, when Maidana threw twice more. That to me means, Maidana was applying pressure and bullying Floyd, bossing and dictating the fight.
          Floyds defense was better than most people but you don't win fights by defense, and you don't win by landing 8 more punches than your opponent.

            Well clean punching is a scoring criteria.

            Throwing more punches isn't.

              Any score that is a draw or to either fighter by a round, or 2 rounds MAX, is cool with me...I want to see a rematch, some people need to learn that just coz Floyd doesn't get laid out doesn't mean he has won the fight.

              And I like Floyd too, great fighter, but the scores for this fight where BS as are some fans. Either a draw or to either guy by a round or two...

                    I had Maidana winning 4 of the first 6 rounds. Draw or a 7-5 fight either way would be fair. Seeing as how Mayweather was the champ and the A side, I can see how he got the nod.

                      A draw is a possible score if you lean towards Maidana's agression. Seven rounds for Maidana I simply do not see.
