          Alexander was 25, in his physical prime when he fought Maidana. Floyd was pushing 40 when he and Maidana fought. Don't these low IQ neanderthals on this website have any common sense?

              Somehow they think Floyd doesnt age...him being 37 seems to not matter for Floyd

                but you making it seem like floyd is the only one that age... maidana might be 6 years younger but his mind and body is prolly 10 years older than floyd lol. his style is meant to take punishment. stop with the excuses man....

                  but that was devon's first fight at WW and he destroyed chino. to the point where maidana thought about retiring LOL. remember when a fighter goes up in weight and is untested at that weight? remember how yall would discredit any fighter that fought the untested guy? well, that was devon's "first" fight at WW. lol

                    Maidana hired Robert Garcia after the Alexander fight.

                      it was devon's first fight at WW. he was untested at that weight and look what he did to chino lol. excuses excuses. floyd old tho, floyd old man tho lol. but when the subject about not taking any damage comes up yall like to bring up floyd talking about floyd is a smart fighter for not taking unnecessarily damage in order to have a longer career. marquez was damm near 40 and he knocked out pac lol.
