    Floyd absolutely moved around a lot in the rematch. Especially after he got rocked in the third. But Floyd also said that this would be a totally different fight from the first fight. I didn't think he would have stayed in front of Maidana in the first fight, but he did. But I knew his @$$ would move around in the rematch. However I did think he would plant his feet and fire off a little more than he did. But I don't blame him for the approach he took to the fight. Why give a fighter his only chance at winning?

    People have to realize that Floyd is not like these other fighters trying to develop a fan base and rise to stardom. He is already at the pinnacle of the sport. The only way Floyd loses the top spot, fans, and haters (who still support his sales) is to lose a fight. So whether he wins pretty or ugly, it's still a win. And I don't know about you, but I'll take a ugly win over a pretty loss any day.
    Great comment finally someone with some sense on this forum.

      I bet Floyd is afraid of EVERYONE out there now. All these guys confidence must be SKY HIGH like Cotto, Canelo Alvarez...Broner too, but I doubt Floyd would fight him and that would be totally unsatisfying unless they both beat the living ***** out of each other.

      But Floyd will end up fighting Kahn, who has no chance. Maybe Canelo vs Cotto, I'd pay for THAT over ANY Floyd fight unless it's Floyd vs Pac.

      Anyone think Canelo Alvarez vs Miguel Cotto could happen?

      And what is the deal with Chavez Jr...everyone says he hasn't beaten anyone of merit and has no heart, doesn't take his craft or training seriously. What's up with that, is it true?

      What about Danny Garcia, is he too light to fight Floyd?

        George Foreman would disagree with you and point out his loss to Evander Holyfield, which gained him more respect in a loss than I've ever seen.

        Same with Meldrick Taylor when he "lost" to Chavez the first time (see my avatar to the left )

        There are many other examples but I'm about to watch Chavez vs Hector Camacho for the 3rd time so gtg.

          He doesn't have to pretend he likes watching one guy run and hold, why should he? He's Mexican, he likes to watch a fight.
          A Mexican that didnt fight against Mayweather throwing 8 punches a round and lost every round. He shouldve fought like a true Mexican like Chavez Sr.

            Wanna compare dlcks i see. Well that may be true that Floyd won first...by TKO!!!! That's TECHNICAL KNOCKOUT , In case you're confused.
            The Hatton goes on to earn two more wins showing that the TKO win from Floyd really didnt bother him...He even KOd Malignaggi. Giving him his first KO of his career.
            Then come Manny Pacquiao. No...Manny didnt TKO Hatton in the 10th round like Floyd. Nope sure didnt. He did it better...He stretched his ass out in two rounds. Hatton was unable to get up. So youre right...But your point is asinine. :WORD:

                I have no problem with you man, you love Manny Pacquiao, that's cool. The issue with your post is that you emphasize that Floyd only TKOd Hatton, but then you post that Hatton KOd Malignaggi. Hatton and Malignaggi were hugging each other when Buddy McGirt walked onto the ring apron and inexplicably threw in the towel. If you're going to argue the semantics between TKO and KO, at least have your facts straight.

                    So you don't think Foreman would have preferred to fight a different fight and win (Not that he could have) rather than fight the fight he fought and lose?

                    And being that Taylor was never the same after that fight I'm sure he wishes he would have fought differently. Or at least danced around the ring like Floyd did in the 12th round of the Maidana rematch.

                    And it's not that I didn't enjoy both of those classic fights. But sometimes it's better to win now and look good later.
