I'm interested to see what 7 rounds Oscar won
Youre the real fanboy LOL
The Maidana fight was a majority decision for Floyd. One judge had it even. The other two are complete incompetents and/or corrupt...Dave Moretti and Burt Clements, two of Floyd's favorite judges. Clements is known for getting it wrong more often than not.

You are correct, why would a fighter take a fight when they know they are going to lose, but there are fighters that have done that (Salka/Garcia, Khan/Alvarez), but you're putting it as if a guy takes a fight and doesn't think he can win.
You mention Floyd having confidence, but where was his confidence to fight outside of America, why did he only fight in the USA if he had all the confidence.
Any sources, even when he was with Arum, that he got a big money offer to fight in another country? Most non-Americans come to the US to get big money fights IF they can. Many can't for various reasons.
Look at Canelo, now the most popular boxer. Why doesn't he fight in Mexico or the UK? Almost all his fights are in the US.
Why would Floyd fight overseas again? Has he had so many robberies going his way in the US?
Not arguing with you, bro, just asking questions.

Back to the maidana fight, literally no analyst/commentator thought maidana won. '

floyd beating oscar is one of the best wins in boxing history, he became the biggest ppv star ever after schooling oscar. oscar looked like a mw compared to him, used his size advantage to the fullest, yet still couldn't even make it a close fight. the decision says SD but in reality floyd won by a wide UD. he beat canelo without even tryharding. maidana, mosley, guerrero, cotto, pacquiao they all got rekt. their fans keep making excuses but deep down they know floyd is the superior boxer.
