    Floyd hurt Maidana bad in the second fight with a body shot,then he faked a low blow

      Yea I remember, Floyd wanted to work that body some more because we've seen how it has worked against Marcos alla Amir Khan. But Marcos is like a piece of iron, or like a wild animal. He isnt invincible but you are going to have to really give it to him to take him out. Floyd could have dished out a more devastating attack but for typical reasons took the conservative defensive approach. Yea he won the fight, but honestly I think Floyd could have beat him at his own game if he were to take the offensive. Might of been an easier fight too. Giving Maidana the initiative to keep coming forward only sustains his confidence. Guys like Lopez and Ortiz really had Maidana in serious trouble but Maidana dug deep and turned it up. I think Floyd could have picked up where lopez and Ortiz failed.

            Mayweather has a great chin. On top of everything else. And of course great composure when hurt.

              It felt like steel because maidana was hitting you in the sore spots where you injected.

                  He was also Bambi on ice for a lot of the fight. But showed tremendous heart.

                  However, Khan's chin problems do not derive from that fight and it's pointless to deny that he has a weak chin. From getting decked hard in the amateurs, to staying down for the count in a British lightweight fight and getting a gift, to being chased around the ring by Julio Diaz and buckled by a guy with 8 KOs to his name in his last fight..

                      Correction: Devon Alexander said he never got to feel Maidana's power because he never got hit clean by Maidana. And Corley is a hater, he said Maidana has absolutely no power and he didn't feel his punches even though Maidana knocked him down and almost stopped him and Maidana was terribly out of shape in that fight.

                      Petr Petrov said Maidana is the hardest puncher he's ever faced.
                      Algieri said Maidana is the hardest puncher he's ever faced and hit way harder than Provodnikov.
                      Algieri's team said Maidana is the hardest puncher they have ever seen P4P
                      Josesito Lopez said Maidana hits harder than Canelo Alvarez
                      Jesus Soto Karass said he hits harder than Thurman

                      Maidana would steamroll Matthysse like a tortilla.
