Official Mayweather vs Maidana Master Discussion & Postfight Analysis Thread

[hugh grant]

Floyd should win with his cherry pick. If he fought Miguels opponent, or Pacs next opponent he might not though.

Hes always fighting easier opponents than his peers do, even though hes supposed to be better than Miguel or Pac.

unification fight between two champs.... you cant make em all happy i guesss

Not worht the time

I urge all fans to not support this fight unless you really enjoy spending money to watch a track meet which is what this will turn out to be. Mayweather obviously has seen enough holes to exploit. Otherwise he wouldn't be taking the fight. He is safety first and money second and as far as entertaining the fans? I think that falls way low on his list, probably below beating his wife. So if you have a short memory, remember the snoozers against, Guerrero, De La Hoya, Alvarez, Mosley and all the other naps Money provided us with. I think Maidana is very fun to watch and I admired his bashing of Broner but trust me. Mayweather is going to make money off putting people to sleep once again and I'm not talking about Maidana.

If Maidana can get Floyd to chill against the rope he will land this punch more then once.

Go to 2:02, watch the overhand right.

Mayweather is going to run, there is no doubt.

Mayweather is going to out work, and beat Maidana up. It's not going to be close. Barring him getting caught I can see no way he loses and I don't think anyone is legitly picking against him...judging by the poll almost everyone in the Maidana KO portion is just someone who hates floyd and bashes him constantly....and I feel the Maidana decision people are pulling a Hectari and picking the most unlikely outcome just to claim their prophets.... can anyone give me a decent example of how Maidana is going to beat Floyd by decision......honestly one decent theory.

May 3rd people will see the difference between Floyd and Broner.

...or how Maidana is different from Canelo and Robert Guerrero.

[MeatCurtain]

Guerrero and Maidana fight nothing alike though. Guerrero is a rangy fighter who likes to box with straight punches. If were talking foot/hand speed, Guerrero isn't even faster then Maidana. So when he tried to box Mayweather, he got destroyed. When he started chasing him, it's not his game, he couldn't catch him and got destroyed.

Chasing people is what Maidana does. Unless Mayweather flatout runs and pot shots the whole time, Maidana is going to look decent in this fight even if he gets shut out. Mayweather hasn't fought someone willing to go all out on him since Hatton. Hatton certainly isn't the puncher Maidana is although he's a bit quicker.
