      Didn't see any running...

      Saw some strategic boxing but running... musta missed that

      This is a claim levied against Mayweather quite often...IMO you can't accuse someone of running if they are also landing punches in the process...Thats called boxing...

      For example, I have NO problem with a person watching say Canelo/Lara & coming away feeling like Lara ran...Erislandy implemented plenty of movement but it was not followed up by enough punches in my estimation...That is running...movement absent punching....

        If they would have taken away points from him for running, it would have been a more interesting fight.

          Great definition. That is the difference.

                Clearly Floyd ran for his life. Most importantly he held for his life after the third round. It was actualy shocking to see him hold so much, he couldn't match Maidana on the inside so he bailed out everytime.

                Has anyone done a compuclinch of Floyd vs Maidana II?

                I mean he called himself the best ever, yet he couldn't fight on the inside vs a fighter like Maidana?

                  That was the worst fight I've seen in a long time.

                    What gets me about our beloved pound-for-pound king is when he spends the last rounds of fights running, and I mean running. De La Hoya still gets crucified for the last rounds against Tito but somehow people overlook Floyd wasting everyone's time in the last rounds. I mean, the dude was flying around the ring against Guerrero FFS.

                      LOL! I'd say that's all the proof I need.
