You keep saying Maidana wasn't landing, but was Floyd? He landed less than Maidana. What exactly did Floyd land besides 2-3 pull counters, a few jabs to the body, and 1-2 uppercuts?
Maidana landed more jabs to the face than Floyd, landed as much jabs to the body, landed far more bodyshots, and just as many headshots if not more. Hell Maidana landed more headshots in the 1st round than Mayweather did with in the entire fight with those wimpy pull counters.

I watched the whole fight, don't tell me what I watch or didn't watch. I guess I can also say that you watched the whole fight with rose-tinted flowmo glasses. You say Maidana slowed down, so Floyd didn't slow down? We can't know who landed the harder body shots because we didn't feel them, but we do know that Maidana landed far MORE bodyshots.
Maidana swept 5 of the first 6 rounds and there is no way Mayweather won 6 rounds in a roll after that. Everytime someone in the fight tried to hold on for dear life it was Mayweather, not Maidana.

Originally posted by Xi_ View Postlmao.....swept the first 6 rounds? rounds 2,4 and 6 were CLEAR mayweather rounds and 3 could've gone either way. you were watching the fight with pact*rd glasses on. floyd turned it up a level down the stretch, only an idiot would dare dispute that. round 8 is the only other round you could give maidana and even that was close too. there have been a number of videos on youtube where the fight been slowed down and showing all punches that were landed by both fighters.....do your own research, youtube is your friend.
Again, still, no one has told me what and when are those "clean" punches that Mayweather supposedly hit Maidana with. Maidana completely neutralized, rolled, and blocked Mayweather's left hook, the only punch Mayweather could land was an occasional right hand over Maidana's lazy jab. I don't need to watch highlights created by flowmos that replay every little punch floyd lands 10 times, I watched the fight 3 times and Maidana outworked Floyd badly and Floyd didn't land enough to win.Last edited by Wenpire; 05-11-2014, 03:29 AM.
