Cuauhtemoc1520's take on this weekend

[Cuauhtémoc1520]

my mexican buds had no filter when he said that...i think i heard 'm@yate' 60 times for the next 2mins


but yea, can you imagine if any other race said that about a defeated black opponent? Al Sharpton would be marching right now

I think Floyd will win clearly next time too, Maidana is awkward his timing, the angles of his punches its hard to prepare for but he knows what to expect now.

As for Broner, don't worry I am pretty sure he will get beaten up again and ko'd soon maybe by a Mexican someone like Molina.

At the risk of sounding like a cry baby, I just think there's a double standard when it comes to race in this country. Not to say there isn't racism, but I think blacks have been so oppressed that they almost get a "pass" when saying dumb racist things.

Remember when Floyd called Pac a rice eater or something like that? Imagine if someone called FLoyd a watermelon eater, it would be a **** storm.

LOL@m4yate, haven't heard that word in a long time. Been in Miami too long.

Just put Broner in the ring with John Molina, Soto Karass, or Bam Bam and he'll be singing a different tune. That should be his punishment.

Seriously, he should face some type of repercussion for his comments. Most fighters are respectful towards each other especially after the fight. Broner has no respect for anyone. He has no respect for the sport.

His punishment should be that he has to face Matthysse in his next match.

That would be a massacre lol.

I personally think that Hunter has Khan fighting extremely careful. If you heard him in round 8 I think it was, he got really angry at him for covering up and allowing Collazo to tee off on him.

I think they see Khan as a potential opponent for Floyd and they don't want to ruin anything in regards to that chance.

Khan is fighting "scared" in a sense, I get it but I liked the old Khan that took chances. Sure he could of gotten KO'd, but I think he could have also KO'd Collazo as well.

Khan could have made the night easier for himself without so much holding, he probably could have stopped Collazo.

He took quite a bit of damage trying to hold.

[LacedUp]

Agreed.

What was Maidanas purse for the fight?

A mere $1.5 million guaranteed.
But he will take some Argentinian tv rights money as well.

Reportedly closer to $2million when it's all done.

Pinche precedes everything....

What is your opinion of the glove issue? Not the politics of it, but as a boxing trainer how much of a difference do you think it could have made on Maidana's punching power?

[PRPOWERPUNCHES]

Some poster have asked me to put my take down so here goes.

Periban vs J Love

Good fight, Periban is a tough guy and I was impressed with Love's boxing in the second half of that fight. He's been getting a lot of criticism as of late, and I thought he showed up well.

Broner vs Molina

Molina did better than I thought he would have. He landed some big shots but I think Broner was too big and too strong for him in the end. Broner better be careful in calling out Mexicans, because there are some at 140lbs that would kick his ass.

Khan vs Collazo

Khan looked sharp but I didn't like the excessive holding. Collazo was obviously frustrated by the speed and the holding, but keeping your hands down didn't help. I thought Collazo could have done better but his game plan went out the window it seemed after round 2.

Mayweather vs Maidana

Man what a fight, I was completely wrong in how competitive it was going to be. Props to Maidana for taking the fight to Floyd and it's amazing how styles truly make fights. I personally think Canelo beats Maidana but Maidana's aggressive style showed up better vs Floyd.

I had it a draw but I will need to see it again and really sit down and score it more precisely. Maidana was just more aggressive, didn't stop coming forward and landed the harder, better shots. Have to give Mayweather his credit though, he really countered well later in the fight, but I also was disappointed with Tony Weeks.

If you allow Floyd to hold that much, and separate them immediately when he does hold, you take a huge part of Maidana's game away from him. Mayweather was holding inside, and if one arm is free, the ref needs to let them work.

Maidana also landed some low blows, I don't know if the were intentional, but he seemed frustrated from the holding. I honestly thought Maidana could have gotten the decision in the end, but I'm not mad with the outcome. It was a razor close fight, and I also have to say Robert Garcia and Alex Ariza have done a fantastic job with Maidana.

He came in incredible shape, and that pace is hard to keep for 12 rounds and he almost pulled off the huge upset. Of course there will be a rematch and I also think that Floyd looked a little older in this fight.

Kind of the way we saw Pac look vs Bradely the first time. Even though he won almost every round, it seemed that explosion wasn't there. I think Floyd's age caught up to him just a little bit, not saying he's anywhere near done but he is 37.

In the end it was a great night for boxing and my respect goes to Floyd. I really thought he had to earn his purse on this one, and it could have gone either way. I don't see Floyd fulfilling his contract of 6 fights. I truly believe the most important thing to him is keeping his "0" and fighting Maidana, Pac or even GGG really endangers that.

Great night of boxing though in the end.

IMO..Its not what Khan did..Its what Luis Collazo didn't do that cost him the fight.. He was Alfredo Angulo out there..Just going through the motions..He was told not to hurt Khan if he wanted to continue to get big fights.. *** BOXING..
