Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Maidana is Dirty, Cotto/Canelo Are Better

[RawDawgHasSpokn]

Maidana will have to change his tactics a bit, still smother but this ref won't allow him to repeatedly hit behind the head. I like the way he showed no respect for Floyd but the back of the head shots were blatant from the first round. Canelo better get to Cotto next because he won't have his belts after May....

ive been out of the loop for a couple of weeks..is Chino allowed to wear his gloves this time?

No -- a dirty fighter isn't allowed to wear his gloves.

Their is a difference.

Their is a reason Certain gloves are called punchers gloves i.e. Reyes, Everlast MX

and their a reason some Gloves are known for protecting a fighters hand like Winning, Grants Orthpedics (which mayweather wears) , Padlock

Their is a reason Mayweather paid Maidana 1.5 million to wear Padlock gloves.

these arent just by accident or over zealous fans talking, these are real tangible situations and facts.

The 1.5m has been refuted and the gloves Maidana wore are considered pincher's gloves. So no, those aren't facts.

This is all we're gonna hear from Floyd from now until September, and then a ref will be appointed to keep the fighters at a distance so Floyd can pot-shot his way to a win.

Reminds me of the hatton fight, when Floyd asked the ref to protect him from hattons dirty tactics.

Cortez took it too far, and because Cortez eyes were fixated on Hatton all night like he fancied hatton, he missed Floyds elbows and dirty tactics.

I would agree with most that Mayweather can be a dirty when need being, but their first fight was the perfect opportunity for Floyd to give Maidana what he's been asking for. I just hope Floyd can even the playing field with his elbows too. Besides Victor Ortiz forehead lounge, the Maidana knee to Mayweather's groining was classic. Maidana was so focus on giving Mayweather the business Maidana didnt give a damn about what was legal or illegal. Talk about being professional

Funny the perception of people now a days. You only want to see what you want to see

The knee didn't connect with anything....

Floyd didn't issue his 1st elbow until well into the 3rd round.

Maidana should have been deducted at least 2 points by then.

God, so many maidana nut-hugging and Floyd hater in this thread. face it Maidana is dirtier than floyd, he aways fight dirty through-out his carreer.

But yeah seeing Floyd bleed and cornered is so satisfying. great work maidana, do it again!!
