Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Maidana II Deal Looms For Next Week

[IronDanHamza]

course you did pal, well the majority of people were disgusted at mayweather vs chino when it was announced. he just beat a decent junior middleweight then goes after a face first brawler that had about 5 fights at welterweight.

if it didnt go wrong, why is he rematching him?

Course I did? What is that sarcasm? Go and check my posts I said that it would be Floyds toughest fight in years, broke down why and that's exactly what happened. "Most people being disgusted" doesn't tell me anything just tells me they're not looking at what's infront of them very well.

Why is being a "face first brawler" such a bad thing these days? Maidanas a brawler yes but a damn good one.

He's rematching him because the options are minimal and Maidana gave him his toughest fight in over a decade so it's logical to make it at this moment in time.

Just because it was a tough fight doesn't mean "it went wrong" if he lost the fight or got a robbery decision it would have "went wrong" but the fact is he won the fight so it hardly went wrong.

Well I don't agree. Maidana is an exciting fighter but not a fighter that should be giving mayweather any problems. Look through mayweathers resume and it shows that he beats fighters of maidanas level rather easily. A reason he lost rounds to chino would be that there was a ref that didn't break the action every time he got close like Cortez did. Also, look at the punch stats. When have they ever been that close before? That's why it went wrong.

The Pacquiao fight isn't happening. Move on.

People aren't just going to move on, they will call for the fight and request explanations as to why it isn't happening as long as it remains the biggest fight in boxing.

Maidana fought the best fight he could the first time, there is no point in a second fight, now Floyd will know what's coming and will adjust accordingly, and box his lights out.

This fight is a waste of time.

Word is Maidana Floyd I didn't do so well. I'd say give Cotto a rematch since he's a bigger draw and is more popular right now. Then Maybe Maidana Broner as the B attraction. Then maybe Thurman Mattysee.

Wow Mayweather - Cotto 2 with this undercard you decribe...... Boxing fans heaven

Not really the last time Floyd fought someone who brings the fight with consistent pressure was Hatton and he have him some issues the last time before that was Castillo who gave him major problems. Added to the fact he's much older now and hadn't fought that style in years. Like I said, people clearly couldn't see what was infront of them. I could.

Ok so it went wrong because the punch stats were close keep them coming it gets more ridiculous each time.

What's next? It went wrong because Chino ate a biscuit in his post fight interview when has that ever happened before?

He won the fight so it hardly went wrong. Simple as that.

whatever pal, it was hardly your typical mayweather performance. put it this way, it didnt go how floyd would have liked.

Oh ok I didn't realise unless you completely dominate a fight it "goes wrong" that's an exclusive standard for Mayweather of course and nobody else in the history of the sport.

How about the Cotto fight did that go wrong because Cotto didn't only win a few rounds but he also gave him a nose bleed when does that happen?!

What about Jesus Chavez yeah he got the stoppage but Chavez won some rounds and made it competitive I guess that one "went wrong" aswell.

[Resilient]

How do yall see this fight going? Me thinks Floyd might do the Booty Dew.

That's fine as long as they're realistic.
