Embarrassing to who? Mayweather wasn't embarrassed because he fought an immediate rematch with the guy you claim wore pillows. Fans weren't emabarrased because over 800,000 purchased the first Mayweather/Maidana fight and over 900,000 purchased the second fight compared to 300,000 who purchased Pacquaio's last PPV.
So please enlighten us on exactly who was embarrased by the Mayweather/Maidana fight?
He held a poll on his own website to let the fans decide who he should fight and then he fought the loser of that very poll on his very own website because he wanted the easier fight.
He then paid the guy who was the easier fight money to wear gloves that were more padded than the gloves Amir Khan was happy for this guy to use when he beat him, to make it an even easier fight.
He then went on to lose the fight in alot people's eyes, despite choosing the easiest opponent he could and using padded gloves, not only that but he looked average in a rematch no one wanted and the whole fiasco made a $16million loss to boot.

I don't remember Oscar looking disappointed while he was promoting Maidana. Oscar and Arum are in a bind. Arum can't promote the Manny fight and the Cotto fight, both for Cinco de Mayo weekend. Someone has to lose because Roach can't be in 2 places at the same time. If Manny gets the fight, Cotto and Oscar (Canelo) get ******, because HBO will not put on a Cotto vs. Canelo fight, the same night as Mayweather vs. Pacquiao. So Arum convinces Oscar to bring Canelo to HBO, and then he goes and gets the super-fight done, and Oscar's people (Khan and Canelo) get ****ed by Mayweather again. However, if Mayweather chooses Khan, Oscar comes out "Golden," because Khan will fight Mayweather on Showtime, and Canelo fights Cotto on HBO, and it's a win-win for GBP. This will be interesting!Comment
