Comments Thread For: Mayweather: Maidana Can Only Win With a Knockout

[SeekDaGreat]

I understand that but again what you said orginally just isn't true.

There's no doubt Maidana has a case for 5 rounds but the fact is he didn't clearly win 5 rounds.

The only clear Rounds Maidana won were Round 1, 5 and 8 and even still 8 was quite competitive.

The same can be said about Floyd "the only clear rounds he won were _, _," Maybe he didn't "clearly" win 5 rounds. BUT the fight was close and for any fighter to win by 4-5 points is incorrect. Of course, imo.

The same can be said for Floyd, yes.

But I don't see anyone saying Floyd had 5 clear rounds.

Floyd did have more clear rounds than Maidana but he didn't have 5 clear rounds either.

So are you saying floyd might have had 4 clear rounds and maidana 3???

I thought Maidana clearly won 1,5 and 8 I thought Floyd clearly won 4, 7, 9 and 10.

None of the rest are clear rounds IMO. Some closer than others obviously.

Maidana swept rounds 1 to 5 in addition to winning rounds 8,11 and 12. By my calcuLations that equals 116-112 for el chino

Real reason I won't watch this fight is because. Ok there were gloves accepted by the NSAC. But whenever Mayweather is asked "Why won't you let him use the gloves accepted by the NSAC". he says "I'm not here to talk about that". And then the reporters always shut up for fear of being banned from interview him in the future.

I think that's ***in ******ed. Reporters kiss ass way too much. I understand ok the first pair to not be accepted because the NSAC also did not accept it. But when the 2nd pair got accepted by the NSAC. Maidana was STILL not allowed to use them. And there is NO REASON that mayweather or NSAC or even Maidana camp gave for not using the 2nd pair. Mayweather runs the show and nobody can make him look bad or else nobody gets paid. Basically "I pay you this much and you make me look good. Or you don't get paid."
Really not worth giving Mayweather any money for this kind of thinking. We now know that Pacquaio fight will never happen. Because Pacquiao uses Reyes Gloves. And Mayweather won't accept those. And last time Pacquiao got told what gloves to wear he lost (vs. Morales) So you know Pacquiao won't budge either.

Boxing is pretty much sad and dead. Until Mayweather walks away. And I hate to say it because Mayweather is great with his defensive skills. But He is just so worried about losing he does whatever he can BEFORE the fight to make sure he gets the win. And I think with all the media kissing his ass. It really makes me want Mayweather out of boxing for good. I think boxing will be better once he's gone. I really do.


So Let me get this straight.. the NSAC approves the gloves. But Mayweather says NO HE CAN'T USE THEM.
That automatically makes them 'special cheater gloves'???

Exactly right! That's why he doesn't let radio raheem in his gym cause he doesn't have answers to a real reporter

Thats 9-3 you said 8-4...

Edit: you first had it 117-111 then changed it. I gave floyd round 2 and had maidana up 4-2 after 6

You had lara beating canelo 9-3?? Whats up with that?

[ADP02]

I had Maidana up 4-2 after six rounds. He only has himself to blame for winning 1 of the remaining six rounds.

Check out it out (first 6 rounds) ..... 2 judges had Floyd winning it from the get go even though Maidana did better.

Maidana did better in the 2nd half than Floyd did in the first half and deserved at least a draw or a 7-5 win .... but your score is better than 2 judges.

Even though I've already laughed once I still genuinely laughed again reading it the second time you posted it.
