The reason why many people saw Maidana beat Mayweather is...

His gloves was approved but it was suspect to team mayweather. They didn't see much padding in it. Nsac didnt comment on it but that's the reason behind.
They wore the same gloves, so its still fair, the only issue for team maidana was that they were not able to practice with new ones.
The reason many thought maidana won is because of their hatred for floyd. And most casuals dont know ish about boxing. Maidana indeed put an effort and made it a rough fight for floyd, and he was constantly trying and was in there until the last round. There were only 1 or 2 rounds where floyd completely dominated. Floyd meanwhile dug deep in the second half of the fight(since he was behind), picked up the pace and put an offensive push. It's sad that people were only seeing what maidana was doing rather than witnessing floyd's offensive arsenal.
Maidana, that night, step his game up. And got good results.
But judging per round it can be 9-3 for floyd and the farthest for me is 8-4.Comment

They were used with no padding around the knuckle there is plenty of footage of the very moment, the red gloves are after the fact.Comment

1) the hate for may is strong
2) action/pressure guys are loved
3) mexicans are ravenous when it comes to their fighters
4) sloppy aggression is often mistaken for quality punches
it all adds up to a fight that wasnt that close.Comment

Naah..
Floyd got away by forcing Maidana wear what he imposed. That to me is getting away with cheating.
It's like a golfer who cant use his own clubs. Or a tennis player cannot wear his own racket or a baller who can't use his own shoes.
Bottomline maidana used floyd's pillow glove of choice and still man handled him lolLast edited by Spoon23; 04-29-2017, 09:51 AM.Comment

After being caught trying to use illegal gloves with padding that could be moved easily. Maidana tried to cheat, but Mayweathers the bad guy. You're pathetic.Naah..

the same blue gloves that has been approved in other fights?

nice try
if I remember correctly he also said the red gloves had no padding either and that they were gonna use the gloves that they provided.
as you can see those where glove maidana was training with... as floyd even said himself "they are already broken in". Maidana's team said ok no problem well use the commission issued gloves.
So there was no cheating at all
except for floyd forcing maidana to use gloves he didnt even get to practice with smhLast edited by bigjavi973; 04-29-2017, 09:02 AM.Comment
