Comments Thread For: Garcia: I Said Floyd Never Faced Anyone Like Maidana

[turnedup]

His face says it all..despite the talk here from fanboys. You can't be serious and not give props to Maidana as a boxing fan. He came and did exactly what he said he was going to do and that was show no respect. In terms of dirty tactics, that works both ways. Any legitimate Mayweather fan knows Floyd loves to use his forearm and ain't nothing wrong with it, that's in ring experience.

Mayweather won hands down. Chino was simply hitting arms and shoulder and it does not warrant a win. Mayweather clearly landed overall cleaner shots to the face/body.Chino threw more punches but the connect rate was not as accurate as Mayweather. If you throw more punches does not mean you will win. Props for Mayweather for staying in the pocket w/ chino and trade shots. Chino had his chance and will not get a rematch...on to the next one.

The real boxing fans know who won this fight they didn't just give any close round to floyd like the gimps In the media and on here any other fighter besides floyd would have been given the L. Maidana 7-5 or 8-4

Floyd 7-5.. maidan gave it away by not being aggressive enough in the later rounds i remember...i tried to stay with what i said about going for mayweather, but found myself rooting for maidana, that said maidana had it, and let it go!

Maidana aint win **** judges dont give points for ufc moves

Right, because holding and punching is a UFC move as long as Chino does it, but when Fraud does it thats TBE material quality sht. Sure.

Come on man, his face says it all? Guess you didn't see the head butt that caused the cut over the eye, the behind the head blows, take down and the knee attempt? They both fought dirt but no way in hell did Mayweather fight nearly as dirty as Maidana. You're taking all the credit from Mayweather for winning a rugged fight against a man who was more than willing to bend the rules to win the fight. So let me ask you, are you a Maidana fanboy or a Mayweather hater?

The Mayweather vs Castillo and Hoya fights had been closer. Maidana may have been tougher per say, as Maidana is in his prime while Floyd is 37, past prime and no legs.

The rematch is warranted just because Floyd typically dominates and the fact that Miadana was capable of winning 3 to 4 rounds makes one question Mayweather. This displays the high standards that are placed on him to win every round or we look at it as a loss.

Great fight outside of the dirty **** and I love seeing all the **** Tards eat crow about how this fight would be garbage, boring etc etc etc...

Right, the same people who say its gonna be boring, he wont stand toe to toe, boycott this fight are the ones saying maidana won!! Floyd won, it was close but it was a great fight! Are people gonna say boycott the rematch now??? I doubt it!

Minus rough house tatics, head butting, and take downs, Maidana really didn't prove nothing but how inaccurate he is.

Good fight! Maidana fought the fight that he wanted to fight, he mauled, roughed up Floyd for the first 6 rds and after 6 rds I still had it 3-3. Then Maidana started to fatigue starting in rd 7, and Floyd took control from there, winning every rd from 7-12. Just because Maidana was super aggressive and throwing outrageously wild shots, he wasnt really landing except to the body when Floyd was against the ropes....I thought Floyds left jab to the body was the key, it started to hurt Maidana and slow him down, Floyd hit him with that left jab to the body and all those straight rights at will from rd 7-12..

Like Floyd said himself, if he dominates all 12 rds then everyone is gonna say boring fight or he cherrypicked, but if his opponent actually does better than what everyone expected then ppl are gonna say Floyd lost it or in this case Floyd lost.....Catch 22..........This fight was competitive and alot of action but to score it was quite easy, the 117-111 and 116-112 was totally accurate....I had it 117-111

Exactly! How many times did Floyd land clean crisp shot after clean crisp shot, that left jab to the body was hurting Maidana

Best assessment of the fight that I've read from a non-biased poster.
