Comments Thread For: Garcia: Close Rounds Will Be Scored For Mayweather

[Golden Boi 360]

The reason Floyd tends to win close rounds is because of HOW he loses rounds. If that makes sense. How does he lose rounds? He rarely ever gets hit clean so his lost rounds are due to him being pressured, spending the majority of the round on the ropes, or being forced to fight on the inside unwittingly. He will almost always land the cleaner shots and almost always dictate the pace while having better defense every round. That's conducive to winning rounds.

This. Good post. He loses the rounds if his clean shots are drowned out by activity and pressure.

how many times did floyd get hit by maidana's overhands?

Over hands that landed behind the head, and even when those landed, he had to pin Mayweather to the ropes for it to happen. Pac is not going to be able to hold Mayweather to the ropes.

Pac has a bigger job to do than Floydie, but those are the rules when you fight Floydie. Floydie gets the ref he wants, the judges lean toward the biggest draw in the sport, and the band played on. I think though, whereas Maidana, Castillo and Cotto gave Floydie problems, Pac will give him fits with his speed, combinations, awkward angles, endless pressure. This will be the toughest fight Floydie will ever be in. And I do expect Pac to drop Floydie at least once.

Garcia is jinx to whoever Pac is up against. Garcia always picks to loser, dude is always wrong.

I was thinking.

If instead of Peterson, it was Floyd that fought the exact same fight last Saturday against Danny Garcia, believe you me, the scores would have looked very different and Floyd would have won the fight. Hands down.

Absolutely zero question about it. He would've had it wide, too.

with this post how could they say it was so close, it could go either way.

point of the matter is that, there is not such thing as "too close it could go either way" when it always go Floyd's way

it should be termed as "it's too close, it should go Floyd's way!".
