Comments Thread For: Bradley's Trainer: Mayweather's Ability Diminished A lot

This. I agree with you to an extent, although i believe Floyd slipped a notch, Maidana had alot to do with how Floyd looked-maidana pressed forward constantly in both fights. Floyd looked superb against Canelo because he tried to box using range, Maidana didnt make that mistake.

Looking at both maidana fights, Floyds reflexes were present in the 1st fight and looking at the 2nd, Floyd "diminished" alot just between the 2. Ive noticed alot of ppl saying floyd wasnt able to pull the trigger in the 1st fight, to me that wasnt necessarily the case, Maidana had a nice @$$ jab and thats what kept floyd thinkn twice.i thot maidana would have used his jab more in the 2nd because of its success in the 1st.

My honest opinion, Floyd slipped a little just between maidana 1 & 2, his reflexes are what got myself thinkin. Maybe he changed a few training habits but its clear something is different about floyd

You're right Maidana did play a big part in it as well to be fair to him, he's got that come forward no bull**** style, no respect and roughs you up and hes good at it (hes also got better at applying effective pressure since his 140 days), maybe that's what threw Floyd off a bit too, the fact he got straight in there and had absolutely no respect for Mayweather.

I don't think Maidana come close to winning the fight like some claim on here, I don't even think he was near drawing - but he definitely gave Mayweather a harder time than most of his recent opponents.

Where are the Flower boys ?

The Question scaring yall off ???

The Question Demands ANSWERS !!!!!!!

Name the PRIME WW ELITE that JR has beaten that defines him as a GREATER fighter than Manny Pacman Pacquiao.

Hatton comes to mind.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

No kidding...


Floyd is damn near 40 years old... I hope is skills would have diminished abit....


If he hadn't diminished, people would be screaming he was in peds,moore than they already do

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Hatton comes to mind.

Hatton was never a prime welter... He is horrible at that weight and should be 0-3 but he got the nod vs collazo, so he is 1-2, and never looked good at the weight

[PAC-BOY]

Already campaigning for excuses!

Wow twosweethooks with the ether...

No fl0mo has answered the prime elite WW question yet

Bradley wasnt a "prime elite WW champion" when pac fought him..it was his 1st fight at WW.

Now you name one "prime elite WW champion" pac has faced?

[Kagami Taiga]

Sad part is diminished skills and all, he wouldn't have struggled against Chaves. Bradley is a horrible ww and far from an elite fighter time to accept that.

Hes 38 years old, of course he is diminished.

But I dont see the dramatic difference between 2013 and now. Guerrero and Canelo boxed with floyd and fought his fight, everyone will look bad if they box with mayweather.

Maidana 1, mayweather elected to stay in the pocket and fight maidanas fight and still won. Everyone said he was past it and this and that, then he goes and fight his own fight in 2 using lateral movement and makes it look easy, then he is a chicken runner again blah blah blah.

Exactly these dudes overhype Bradley to make Pac look good. Few fighters in history have ever been top champions with limited power, the ones that do make it are exceptional breeds like Willie Pep, Bradley has like 30% KO%.

I agree. Floyd looked horrible last fight. Run around the ring, throw some love taps and hold on for dear life if maidana gets close. On top of that he was getting countered and outjabbed at times. Honestly I think Maidana was a bad style matchup. Reminded me of Ali-Norton II. Yeah he might of won but looked terrible doing it. His reflexes and power are definitely diminishing.
