    Maidana no question about it. He's an overall trickier, more powerful fighter than Pacquiao. Just watch the fight between him and Broner. This showed in his fight with Mayweather because he caught him with some good shots compared to Pacquiao who didn't do **** shoulder injury or not. For someone on steroids Pacquiao fell short.

      maidana. anyone who says pacquiao is lying to themselves

      even in the rematch where mayweather (feat. kenny bayless) won clearly, maidana still made it a struggle. ATG highlights of the second fight

        Maidana did. Pacquiao should have copied Maidana's battle plan and he might have won or at least done better.

            The main difference is Mayweather didn't take Maidana seriously. People pretend like it wasn't suppose to be an easy fight for Mayweather but hindsight is 20/20. But he really respect Pacquiao. Mayweather open up a lot more against Maidana. Against Manny he started the clinch game from round 1.

            Maidana did more damage but took punishment as well.

            Although Pacquiao did less damage to Mayweather, but Mayweather didn't make the fight particularly hard for Manny neither. Manny had more problems with Bradley than Mayweather.

              Maidana did. Even though Floyd won the second one pretty clearly, I stand by my statement that no other Welterweight beats that version of Maidana. He showed a lot of adjustments and boxing skill in that second fight

                I agree, Maidana put up a way better better fight. It was like Manny didn't even show up but for a mere 30 seconds in his two little flurries

                  Both beat Floyd

                  But I would say because PAC had one arm his win is more impressive
