    It's hard to snap May's head back... He does all those neck ups with weights for a reason. The punch to me grazed may's chin and thumped at the base of his neck where it meets the sternum. May definitely did a little two step in that moment, whether it was just balance or not only he knows. Still a key moment for Maidana, and it went unnoticed by the crack Sho team.

    I believe Floyd went after Maidana after that moment and landed some lead rights, so it's whatever. There was a lot of back and forth ebb and flow type action between the two men where they were jockeying for momentum in that fight.

    My overall point stands though. Sho's view of the fight was skewed for May in the latter half

      Wasn't even close round by round, in terms of competitiveness somewhat. Also, horrible gif, gonna make one.

        He wobbled him with that shot. I forgot how much Floyd showed his age in that fight.

            Maidana got there first and got there harder. Was just off by a couple inches. Good stuff.

              Yup, just a few inches higher and oh boy! Floyd got lucky there.

                Imagine if he doubled up on that right I think Mayweather would have went down his chin was wide up in the air ready to get tagged by anything maidana threw.

                but you know "if all the rain drops were lemon drops and gumdrops what a rain it would be"

                    There is no way in hell Maidana was close to winning the 10th rd; the 8th rd is the only rd I would consider giving him after the 5th.

                      It didn't need to be mentioned, nothing really happened there. Also, Cotto's jab snapped Mayweather's head back on more than one occasion.
