    Baldomir vs Mayweather clips

    The end of round 4 and all of rounds 5 and 6.

    For people saying this was a bad performance by Floyd, need to get their eyes checked.

    Watch as Floyd strafes Baldomir with repeated lead rights and left hooks while his graceful ring generalship, footwork and defense are impecible, as he is able to fight moving forward, side to side and backwards.

    This truly was a boxing clinic



    Sure the action died down a bit during the later portions of the fight, but Floyd had already secured the victory and was fighting with what might be a broken right hand down the stretch.

      and we expected anything else? still, Baldomir was the legit 147lb champ, and Mayweather showed how he's not only on another level than Baldomir but everybody Baldomir beat. Mayweather is on a level nobody in the rest of the sport can even hope to reach at this point.

        (That I kept count, there were tons more on this messageboard) thought Floyd was going to lose or get KO'd.

          I didn't make a lot of comments for this fight coz the outcome was obvious. The only thing I did mention was which round would Floyd injure his hand. And that was many months ago when the fight was first announced.

          Any prediction of a Baldo win was wishful thinking. Then again, anything can happen in boxing. Buster Douglas proved that point.

            Everyone just hopes the underdog wins... And for some reason Pretty Boy has alot of haters.

              Humility isn't part of his personality, his boastfulness (yet he backs it up) bothers a lot of people.

              Ali's boasting was a bit more comical and charming. Whereas Floyd's annoys some people.

                He looked somewhat impressive.

                But only landing 15-20 punches for each of these 3 rounds does not qualify as a clinic.

                I guess I would say from what I saw of Floyd in his fights with Gatti, and Judah, yeah he looked bad in comparison.

                It has to do with fight styles though, Baldy was going to make the fight look ugly and it just did.

                  Baldy gave a better account of himself than Gatti and was more dangerous than Judah, although Judah connected more often, Baldy had a harder punch and didn't let up.
