Comments Thread For: Maidana: I'm Dirty? Mayweather is The King of Elbows

[turnedup]

As I said in the Floyd quote post both these mofo's are dirty fighters it's part of the game and we all know it. Can't call one dirty without calling the other one dirty. Combined they got like a hundred fights worth of video and more than abundant proof in those videos of both being dirty versus other opponents. Some people in boxing consider that a compliment.

Funny how when it's Mayweather, it gets passed off as "little tricks" or "VETERAN TACTICZ" but if it's Maidana, it's just dirty

That's because that's what it is. It doesn't make it any less dirty, mind you. But Mayweather knows how to hide it from the ref while Maidana is a bit more blatant. Either way, it's dirty. This back and forth between Mayweather and Maidana beginning with today's presser reeks of hype. I think they both recognize (or have been told) that they'll need to play up the "bad blood" angle in order to make this rematch a lucrative one.

I think Mayweather knows and he savvy enought to be aware of this where as Maidana is just showing up to fight and Team Mayweather and Mayweather knows Maidana is not some punk so if you talk ish and disrespect he will turn it up aswell.

Maidana is right floyd does use his elbows and forearms a lot.

Come on ppl actin like floyds throwin ufc bows and connectin causing cutts an knockdowns lol an dana is agressive not dirty he got alil crazy when he tackled floyd but it aint the first time an he didnt do it after so in my opinion neither are truely dirty just another thing to hype the rematch thats all.

Chino spittin that truth

I think Maidana's 'rabbit punches' were accidental(Floyd moves his head forward, etc.) wheareas Floyd's elbows were intentional. I'm surprised that more people don't note this. If Maidana throws a punch and then Floyd turns so his back gets hit.... that's Floyd's fault. And why in the hell is he complaining about getting hit on the hip? Where does he think the punches are going to land?

The most ridiculous part was Floyd against the ropes talking to the ref(like little brother A.B.) like being forced against the ropes is illegal. Floyd acts like being hit to the body is an illegal punch.

I think that Bernard is just like Floyd(they both bend/break/rewrite rules that normal people wouldn't even consider) It's just that Bernard's wins are way better(prime Pavlik, prime Trinidad, and so on). Bernard bent the rules and won some legendary matchups. Floyd bent the rules and beat... some good fighters.

Floyd did look sensational against Canelo though. Nobody can take that from him. No dirty fighting there.

Who knows. Boxing is dirty. Both fortunately and unfortunately.

Lol maidana was fightin dirty at times but this fight will not be close I doubt I buy unless they stack the card

[Vasyl’s dad]

lets be honest. most of maidanas "body shots" were actually hip and leg shots (shots below the belt line) he threw a couple knees & many rabbit punches. maidana is full out dirty.........i don't get it. theres been dirty fighters past and present. so whats wrong with stating the obvious?

Let's be honest, you have no credibility and you just suck.
