I still haven't done a good re-watch, but I had it 7-5 Maidana with my rough watch through. For the, "But the clean punches!" guys. Fighting is about winning rounds. One guy bullied and beat the other, and pressed and mostly dominated the action all night. Yeah, Maidana slowed a bit in the back half of the fight, but Floyd just straight up didn't get **** done. The end.
Clean punching
Effective aggressiveness
Ring generalship
Defense

You can press the action all night long and get countered to death.

No "pressing the action" dictates Aggression not Effective Aggression. If you aren't landing **** then it's not Effective so "pressing the action" means absolutely *** all.

Oh, I forgot, he did all of that on purpose to make sure the fans were happy.

Just sayin'. Maidana also controlled the pace of the fight, which in turn, relates to "ring generalship".
