Maidana. Pacquiao. Who put up a better fight against PBF?

[Brickyardigan]

Is this a serious question? Manny won 3 rounds at the MAXIMUM. Chino in the first fight took 6/7 rounds IMO. but 5 at the least!

Maidana won 4 rounds at the most...

#48 won nothing and he didn't even get a round, he scored less rounds than Canelo. All those oohs and aahs when he threw those meaningless winging shots on a shelled up Floyd on the ropes didn't hit nothing, only 2 shots land and people give him the round just for those 2 shots, nah he landed less and he lost.

Maidana hands down. Chino showed Floyd no respect and tried to take his head off.

Pacman was to conservative, stayed in range of Floyds jab and showed Floyd to much respect. Smh! Poor performance still pisses me off til this day..

It pisses me off too..

He showed how cowardly he was to get hit. Should had rushed in and got his ass whupping like he know he should had gotten. Pacquiao was flinching anytime Floyd will look like he was going to throw..

Yeah, I know. Touchy subject for you. I remember when you tried posting gifs of Floyd connecting cleanly in the first fight, and you struggled. Floyd groupies are easily impressed by flashy shots that don't land flush.

You can't be serious. There are many gifs of Mayweather connecting cleanly for the first fight. You can't be that foolish. Oh, and he won the fight. So obviously in the judges eyes, he landed cleanly enough.

[HeThaTruth]

lets just say after the pac/may fight I respected maidana a hell of a lot more

"If slow plodding Maidana can land 220 on Floyd what will Manny do"

LMFAO! Best line of the build up now with hindsight.

Classic stuff in hindsight. They had no idea what they were setting themselves up for.

Chino was actually winning, i would say in alot of of peoples score cards, the first 6 rounds. First fight 4-2 for Chino in the first 6, then depends how you some judged the rest it could have been 8-4 Floyd to 7-5 Chino win, between that range.

So you mean these? You sure this is a struggle? Lol

What puzzles me is how can't you understand that styles make fights? Surely we've all heard that over and over and it's been proven over and over so why ignore it?

Pacquaio is a whole other level to Maidana as a fighter but Maidana's size, strength and mauling dirty style was always going to trouble Floyd at this stage of his career.

Whereas Pacquaio's style favours Floyd, mid range, counters, that's why he excels with aggressive fighters are opposed to counter punchers like Marquez.

It's very basic thinking, don't know how people struggle with it.

Bet you can't find any media score card to agree with that.

It was a close but clear victory for Mayweather in everyone's view. Maidana may have won four rounds clearly, but only one other round was even debatable, with Floyd winning seven easily.
