Mayweather is not undefeated because he chose to fight his opponent's style fight. Of course Maidana wants him to stand in front of him. But why would any intelligent fighter stand and do that if its to his disadvantage??? I think you will see Floyd at his best in this fight. You will see pure skill and speed. It could be somewhat exciting in the early rounds, but it will quickly become Floyd's style of fight. I would love to see Floyd commit to the body early and look for the KO late. Early in his career, that would have been the case, but he's went away from that as a welterweight.
I honestly think Floyd carried Maidana in the 1st fight simply to set up the rematch. He didn't know that Maidana was going to make it that rugged, but Floyd made the fight more interesting than it had to be. How many times was Maidana wide open for shots? Plenty, but Floyd didn't take advantage. Why, because Maidana was too fast and skilled and might have countered??? No, because that was the game plan.
At this stage, Floyd in my opinion, is a better business man than he is a fighter. He is running out of marketable opponents to make the big pay per views. So he created one in Maidana by making the fight close. He will dominate him this time around setting up a big fight with Pacquiao in May. Then he will rematch Manny in September and retire. Its a brilliant plan and most lucrative way to go out. Floyd is just praying that Manny beats Algieri in December, because that could be a very bad match up for Manny. A lost will throw off the entire plan.
I agree we will see Floyd at his best this fight, so if and when Madiana upsets him, he better get full credit and none of this over the hill talk, Floyd is sharp as ever and will prove it after his rivalry with Maidana.
Maidana is saying that he wants Mayweather to fight Maidana's fight. If Mayweather does this, Maidana thinks he will win. This is the same thing Saul Alvarez said and he b.tched after the fight because Mayweather didn't fight Alvarez's fight.
Yeah. The truth again. As inconvenient for you as it may be...
i just meant that "hater" rhetoric you keep spewing ad nauseam ..mayweather should have enough left ,plus he has a great chin...but i'm hoping for the upset....is that ok? or does that make me a hater?
