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

[The Big Dunn]

A Maidana KO is possible but I think Mayweather gives something away in his commentary here, something I've noted for a while. And that is...he's not going to move as much as you think. He can't, actually, and he's smart enough to know that. In order to beat Maidana, Mayweather will have to fight smart in the trenches and off the ropes, a la Nelson-Fenech II or Toney-Jirov.

He can still move and you'll soon see that. You're talking about a guy that regularly is seen running miles and miles in Vegas and outside of Vegas. His father also said that he would be moving more, but not all the time. Keep in mind that the Guerrero fight was just a year ago, and you saw how well he moved there whenever he wanted. Let's not act like that fight was 5 years ago.

Agree with dazed radioraheem. Floyd went to the ropes IMO because maidana was very effective in the middle of the ring for a lot of the 1st fight. Ghost and Canelo couldn't find Floyd, maidana was able to.

Floyd may stick and move rds 10-12 if he has a substantial lead. But I don't expect to see what we saw in 2013.

FLO these nuts....most of yall sound real ******ed saying Maidana won....hell you don't even believe it, cant justify it with out sounding incoherent.


How about this, learn how to score fights then were can discuss the outcome of a fight.

Better yet, form an opinion based off facts and not revisionist history.


Maidana was competitive and fought his heart out, if the fight played out the way it did and it wasn't Mayweather, Maidana would have still lost.

Fights are scored round by round and there is no way you can justify giving Maidana 7 rounds when he barely won 4....stop reaching and learn more about boxing

How did he barely win 4? ahahahahahahahahaha look at my other posts for scoring. Your score is laughable.

Some people posting in this thread need to get hit by a person wearing Grants. Just because they're called pillows doesn't mean they actually are.

Saying that Maidana only has world class power when wearing a particular brand of glove is pretty damned disrespectful. Unfamiliarity with the glove I could understand, but saying that the glove completely takes his ability to knock a person out is just heinous.

Don't worry about that, that's just the keyboard mafia talkers.

I'm sure that Floyd felt Maidana's shots. So much so that Floyd told us already that he will have a nice long talk with whoever the ref is. Floyd can't have Maidana hitting Floyd and the ref will be there to caution Maidana if he does.

Maidana wanted his preferred APPROVED punchers gloves. Oh that's right, it doesn't matter that they are approved because Floyd's "health comes first ...."

Silly me!

you still crying about this. just go out and win if the a side chooses your gloves-just like Floyd did with ODH.

Exactly. Floyd stood right in front of Maidana and sat down with him while Maidana swung from the fences and he still couldn't hurt him.

Oh, that's right. Maidana needed the light, custom, Everlast, no padding, gloves to win.

Silly me.

It never fails.... Everytime Mayweather says anything the boxing community listen and post b/s comments

After the fight, they'll be back to their excuses and crying.
