    if mayweather threw no bodyshots, do you think maidana would keep up what he did in rd 1 the entire fight?

        I scored the fight a draw too. How anyone can say that either guy won or lost that fight without questioning it, is beyond me.

          To be honest with you rounds 1 and 3 were toss ups. I think if they fought again Mayweather would win 12-0. I am a mayweather fan. I hate Maidana for what he did to broner. But I give Maidana credit.

            You're right, Mayweather did nothing at all to win the fight.
            I give Maidana call the credit in the world but he lost, plain and simple. You need to go to ********** and read the mailbag, Bread Edwards sums up the fight perfectly.

                Exactly how I had it in favor of Mayweather

                  Floyd has always been open for body shots. It's just that Maidana was the only one who kept on doing it among Floyd opponents.

                  Those body shots were landing all night (constantly). Chino was unloading like his life depended on it. Vicious!

                  I just realized something. Floyd's is always open for body shots.

                    maidaina had inefgfective flurries against the ropes in rounds 1 and rounds 3, that lasted for 30 seconds at most. floyd domninated 2 minutres of the round with clean punching, he even backed chino up in round 1 and took over the fight from there.

                    go back and look at the end of round 1. floyd was in control and punishing chino on the ropes.

                      I re-watched this fight with the sound turned off and turned around everytime chino cornered Floyd against the ropes.

                      I finally scored it 7-5 for Floyd.
