Who did better against Floyd? Pacquiao or Maidana in the first fight?

[ShoulderRoll]

Mosley, Maidana, De La Hoya, Cotto, Judah, Castillo(both times), and Canelo all did better than Pacquiao

That's a long list!

Be honest.

- -Manny had already exposed Sissyboyo Floyd before Maidana sent him squallin' fer his daddy.

[Larry the boss]

how is this even a question??? Maidana literally has a case of winning imo

Maidana the second fight did better than Pacquiao nevermind the first, f uck Hatton did better than Pacquiao and went out on his shield. Mayweather didn't even get out of first gear against Pacquiao, that fight was so damn easy for him.

Not a single Manny vote

Maidana, I really enjoyed the two fights he had with Mayweather.

it was so easy and thats why pac landed the vast majority of clean hard punches in the fight? pac didn't let him get out of first gear because he made floyd hesitant to commit to any meaningful punches whether it be lead punches or counters. he stayed in that gear because he wasn't able to do anything else but a weak jab that barely grazed pac. what a strange way to look at a fight. if you look at the first round you can clearly see floyd committing to hard shots, stepping in with leverage, but as the fight wore on...those kind of punches diminished to almost non existence. why do you think that is? if you win the first round you just coast the next 11 and you won? i dont think boxing works that way but then again i'm only 25 like tank so maybe i'm wrong.

maidana gave floyd a better fight reason for the immediate rematch.

pac 100% got schooled. no need to see that again.

how do you school someone when they land the better punches?how do you school someone when you aren't even landing any real power punches for more than half the fight? were you impressed by those open gloved(not legal) push off hooks thrown with no force? yeah what a weapon that was. where was the right hand? the left hook? anything? i saw pac landing shots that spun floyds head around, i saw pac stepping in with leverage on his shots, i saw pacs right hand landing far heavier than floyds left jab. where did the schooling happen? floyd kept it close but in doing so he wasn't able to establish anything quality. pac didnt have a lot of quality compared to some past fights but he had more quality than floyd which is the person against which he should be judged. watch round 3 and tell me who deserved to win it. all 3 judges gave it to floyd. after i can post the video of pac schooling floyd in that round but we will start there. lesson 1. oh yeah and compubox said floyd landed 11 power shots in that round. he landed zero clean power shots so we can throw out compubox if you are going there. reality is floyd did very little in that fight because he was weary of what pac was doing and could do to him. pac might have been weary of floyd as well but he didn't let that deter him from landing good quality punches
