Has Maidana got any chance in beating Floyd on Sept 13?

[LoadedWraps]

Was he tense in the first fight and throwing wildly? He seemed a lot more economical and controlled than Im used to seeing him. I agree he still used most of his energy in the first half of the fight tho and im confident his team will work on that. I think i remember reading them saying this in fact.

After the fight TMT (The Maidana Team) acknowledged that they were focusing on landing on Floyd more than hitting him hard, so in a way Maidana was holding back, but now that they know he can land on Floyd, I feel Maidana will jump on him quickly and maul him to the ropes.

You guys sound very naive in thinking Maidana can just out hustle Floyd and win a close fight.

Dude he got DOGGED on the cards 8-4, 9-3, and one draw in the 1st fight.

He would have to DOMINATE Floyd over the course of 12-rounds in a one-sided fashion, or KO Floyd to take out the P4P champ in his BACKYARD with two huge money making fights left on his contract.

And, I'm not even just conspiring against Maidana, its just the cold hearted truth and not an easy thing for a Maidana fanatic to cope with, I understand.

How did you score the fight? Most fans and media had it 7-5 Floyd.

Well he already beat him the first time so why wouldnt he have a chance in the rematch

[TOBYLEE1]

As long as he swings his punches he will always have the puncher's chance. I think this time around Floyd won't go to the ropes and will make it a very boring affair

Personally I watched it drunk and emotionally thought Maidana won the 1st time. Second time, I watched it sober and tried to be as unbiased as possible and scored it a draw.

I'm not a big Floyd fan so it's hard for me to score a close fight for him, my heart always sees him losing.

I'm not mad that he didn't lose officially, I don't think Maidana did enough to take his belt. Yes I'm old school in my belief that you gotta "beat" the champ to take his title. Especially a man of Floyd's credentials.

Maidana will get outbox and shutout this time.

And please stop with the ******ness, Maidana did not beat Floyd the first time. He did better than expected and as the underdog people tend to give him more credit.


Floyd wins 10-2 this time

No Floyd can change in the next fight..Maidana can not

No Floyd can change in the next fight..Maidana can not

So why fight him in a rematch

[John Barron]

maidana's wide, looping punches became predictable later on and he smothered himself his work inside. if he mixes in the jab and straight punches that robert has been teaching him along with his awkward mauling, i think he'll have a lot more success in the rematch. he has to keep alternating between both styles to keep mayweather guessing.
