Did El Chino Maidana dent Mayweather, according to their two fights?

[BOXEO _]

the style is definately one that will take something out of you, props to both of them for 2 good fights!

LOL, The first fight was good.

Bayless ***ed the 2nd one up by breaking them up every 2 seconds when Floyd looked at him. Bayless didn't even warn Floyd once for holding, smh. He was clearly in the bag.

blame the ref, would u stop if it worked for u? I enjoyed the fight

No, Mayweather was just as past his best as he was in the Guerrero and Canelo fights.

Bloody nose against Cotto: lost his legs, dominates Guerrero and Canelo: he's as good as ever, struggles against Maidana: past his best again lol.

Can't keep going from being shot, to back at your best. Mayweather has been past his best for a long time, Maidana had a good style to give Mayweather trouble.

I think he was more hurt after fighting canelo than maidana.

That's exactly what I said, Bayless ***ed up the 2nd fight by breaking them up every 2 seconds when Floyd looked at him.

The only dent Maidana could have caused was to remove that "0". Since that didn't happened it was just another fight.

Corrupt judging prevented that

I don't think so. Floyd was affected by Maidiana's Power in the second fight. The first fight was Floyd being Floyd. That is his bad habit. If you get him to the ropes and throw a lot of punches. He will let you throw them. Which I question if Manny will be able to do because of his size. This is why Floyd lost rounds to Oscar, Cotto, etc. Floyd looked like his normal self until he got caught be the big shot in the third round. Floyd had to give up the next round to recover and that shot threw off his timing. Maidana was the first fighter to counter his pull counter. He had to be weary when throwing his favorite punch against Maidana. I mention again "No one else has successfully countered Floyds Pull counter". Canelo tried and was schooled. I give a lot of credit to Maidana. I give credit to Floyd because he made sure he did not get caught with the big shot again but that affected the timing of the punch. Also rewatch the 8th round. I personally believe Floyd faked the glove bit. Just seconds before Floyd stated he got bit Maidana hit him with a looping right hand that Floyd did not see. The camera was at Floyd's back when the shot was landed but you can see Floyd's hand get rocked back. Maidana then hit Floyd with another right a second before Floyd said Maidana bit him. Floyd disguises when he is hurt very well. Maidana did not even know Floyd was hurt that bad. This is why Floyd lost three of the last four rounds on all of the judges scorecards. If those shots would not have landed Maidana would only have won 2 rounds. So in my opinion Floyd was Floyd but Maidana's power made him play it safe with him already being up on the cards. Floyd picks up a fighter's rhythm and Maidana has no rhythm for Floyd to pick up on.

Good analysis, I'm going to watch it agin now.

Another case where people see what they want even though it doesn't exist.

Have you watched the replay where they zoom into Floyd when Maidana allegedly bit him. The sound Floyd made will remove any doubts you had about him faking it.

Funny how my castillo thread gets deleted and this doesnt

[Beercules]

It might have taken a little something out of Floyd, but Flyd recovers very well.

I think age is catching up to him more than anything.
