Mayweather fight!! Post links and discussion here!!!!

close fight, but with floyd's record, you have to BEAT him and not leave it up to the judges.

this dude has a wild, reckless style = trouble for technical boxers.

floyd will give him a rematch, stay in the middle of the ring, and give this guy a boxing lesson.
 
do you know how much money floyd is going to make for the rematch?

my god!!!!!!!!!!!!

people didnt think this kid had a chance but now, after this?

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
 
Announcers hyped this fight to make it seem closer than it was. But that's a good thing, it just put a lot more life into boxing and for Money to make a killing with his SHO contract.

Yep. If anyone is confused by a judge having a 5 point spread all the need to see if this

Total Punches Landed/Thrown
thru 12
Mayweather [230/426, 53%]
Maidana [221/858, 25%]


Only way Maidana was going to win with those kinds of stats was with multiple knockdowns.
 
I scored it 116-112 before it was called.

Look at the punch stats

That fight wasn't as close as it looked.

No it wasn't, Maidana being busier made it look close.

Yep. He just found his next fight. I was wondering who would be next.
 
I can see Floyd winning....but goodnesss he didn't win by no fucking 117-111. This fight was closer to a draw than to a assault like that.

That fight wasn't as close as it looked.

The fight was not lopsided tho.
The numbers are a little bit deceptive.

Maidana won a few early rounds.
He dominated early.

But Mayweather came back and won the later rounds.
When Maidana was throwing wild shots. And missing.
 
I had it a draw. Pleased with the decision though.

You can't get a draw from this stats without a knock down

I'm convinced that many people just can't see the punches and get activity confused with effectively landing punches.
 
Floyd will not do that re-match and it will be because of a controversy. It will be something to do with them gloves or seomthing else.

no way

just because dude was punching a lot don't mean he was winning.

he didn't hurt floyd and he didn't land at a high clip. floyd threw way less and landed more. you can't win a fight when someone is hitting you half the time they throw their punches.. and that's with it tailing off towards the end. at one point he was connecting at a 69% clip.

first few rounds dude windmilled.
after that it was curtains.

i was nervous, if he could have kept it up the whole fight, might be a little different. but no way he could throw 100 punches a round.

he never knocked down floyd.

and floyd just stood there with a brawler and came out the victor.
 
Congrats to Floyd on a very hard fought win. To those thinking Floyd was going to win by knockout, understand the man ain't built like that. It would be a Christmas miracle for him to pull one off at this point in his career.

no, the early rounds were deceptive. people took the attacking early for winning.

after he finished that rush, he was a regular fighter who could only do it in spurts

I called it 116-112 before the cards were read. I called it during the fight. You could give Maidana 2 rounds max after round 5 and that's with giving him the last round. You could give him round 8 and nothing else.

It was lopsided in terms of how was effectively landing punches. All that activity doesn't count for much if you aren't landing punches.

Floyd landed more punches and throw half as many as Maidana. That means he clearly outboxed him. Maidana needed a knock down for two to win this.
 
Fellas for real......
Imagine what would have happened if Floyd's team did NOT catch Maidana cheating with those gloves
:eek::eek::eek:


Floyd better give his camp a raise for real
Cause Mayweather would have been....

:itsawrap::itsawrap::itsawrap:
 
Y'all can say what y'all want but Maidana don't look phased. Usually cats be taking a beating against Floyd....Maidana look like how he entered the fight.
