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

[HarvardBlue]

Karma, hate to bring Pac into a Mayweather thread but didn't Pac say Marquez needed to KO him in the 4th fight to win.

Put your money on Maidana !!! An upset is brewing !

Somehow, I don't see Mayweather stumbling and falling face first into any punch thrown by Maidana

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.

I gave maidana rounds 1,2,3,5,8 and 12. I gave mayweather rounds 4,6,7,9,10 and 11. Im more of round 4 a toss up. Maidana did outland mayweather the first 6 rounds of the fight according to compubox.

I'll say it again, Mayweather could have conceivably had the better first half depending on who you give round 3 to, that's the round many were split on. All the other rounds were easy to score.

If his name was not Floyd, you would be saying differently. How do you give Floyd 4-2 in the first 6 rounds? So you are saying that even if Maidana continued to fight the way he did the first 6 rounds, you still would have given Floyd an 8-4 victory? WOW, just wow!

ok you wanna bring judges into this....you do know someone scored Mayweather vs Canelo a draw right? Don't act like people don't have their own eyes and know right from wrong.

Maidana could have gotten a draw or a 7-5 score but it would have been a wrong call and a win a robbery

If Maidana would have got the win, more than Mayweather fans would be complaining, people that actually follow the sport, know how to score rounds, would be upset.

Giving someone a fight and them actually deserving it are two different things. He did well enough to get a rematch, but If I were Mayweather and I lost a fight I clearly won just because people like you want to see me lose, I'd be pissed.

Draw or 7-5 would be robbery? Did you even watch the fight? The most reasonable and accurate scores are 5-7, draw or 7-5.

The reason the scores were the way they were was because one guy was named Floyd Mayweather. Floyd got the benefit on all the close rounds and a few not so close!

There were a good 7 rounds that you could have given it to Maidana. So it's not out of the question that Maidana could have won it .....

Even the way you describe the fight is laughable. You say that Maidana even was hurt but never mention the possibility of Floyd "feeling/hurting" from more than a few of Maidana clear shots to the head and body.

Lara made that a boring ass fight, still doesn't chNge the fact that Lara landed cleaner blows throughout that fight

I believe i had the perfect score at 114-114....but could see the fight going either way but lara winning 117-111??? Thats just as bad as 1 judge having canelo winning 117-111.lol

Clean punching, effective aggression, ring generalship, defense. If you judge by these criteria, Not a hard fight to score. Floyd wins, not really close. A fight can be competitive and not be close on the cards.

Yes, clearly that is exactly what he was admitting in this article.

it was a tongue in cheek comment

The reason that you don't see anything wrong with that is because you are looking at it from a Floyd fans perspective. Even Showtime commentators said that the closest judge to the truth was the 114-114 score and that the other 2 judges missed the fight.

I'll say it again, Mayweather could have conceivably had the better first half depending on who you give round 3 to, that's the round many were split on. All the other rounds were easy to score.
