    Props to Chino Maidana (I'm a Floyd fan.)

    He's a crafty cat. Chino was jabbing the **** out of Floyd... And landing it sometimes 2-3 in a row.

    Additionally, I'm concerned. Floyd didn't show any power that indicates he could hurt Khan... He didn't even budge Maidana once. Chino was just walking through clean counters like nothing. Mayweather should have used his legs more. His style is not set up to plant his feet and fight. He can. But it's not his A game. And he showed some grit by absorbing all those body punches and still coming back.

    Chino was also making Floyd miss. He's good. I'm sold on Maidana. New fan.

      TBE is susceptible to the uppercut.

          For a minute there i thought i was walking away with close to $2300 but Floyd pulled it off.

          Respect to Maidana. Been awhile since someone took Floyd to that level

            you gotta try to hurt someone if you wanna hurt someone.

            bradley is not known for his power but he was able to hurt pac...because he tried.

            floyd doesn't totally commit to his offense...he always shifts back to his defense after throwing a punch. that always gives his opponents a breather because there's no follow up.

                As a Maidana fan, props to Mayweather; he has some dog in him I never knew he had.

                  I'm glad someone who isn't a Floyd fan can say something respectful about him. I'm a Floyd fan and while I don't like watching him struggle I was proud how hard he fought.

                  I didn't understand why few "experts" gave Chino little chance. He's one tough mofo. I look forward to watching more of his fights.

                    Im so lost we giving props for winning 4 rounds? If anyone deserves props its Mayweather for keeping his composure amongst all that dirty bullshyt.
