Comments Thread For: Referee Admits: I Was Very Close To Penalizing Maidana

[Frank Ducketts]

How come no one was this vocal about Danny "**** Shot" Garcia vs Lucas Matthysse?

They did. They screamed about Matthysses rabbit punching. Fortunately Danny beat his ass.

Lmbao!!!!!!!

too little too late miadana should have been deducted a point. i was waiting for him to hit Floyd with a folding chair before he gets a point taken.

Yeah when he wrestled Floyd to the canvas in the corner I thought that was the moment someone from the WWE was going to give Chino "The BUM' Miadana a sledgehammer. Funny how all these things are good as long as it's happening to Floyd. I mean what has the guy done other then parade his wealth to sell tickets for people to want him to take a lost? I could see if he talked about someones mother then that is a bigger reason to dislike the man but that he hasn't done. So for all the haters, tell me what's up with the hate? And please forget that excuse about Pacroid please. The guy is a cheater that didn't want to get caught juicing because if it came down to Floyd saying he didn't want to test that's exactly what the word around here would be......

No doubt, El Chino fought dirty, but Floyd did his share of holding and pushing Maidana's head down while getting him in front-face locks. I have to admit, some of that fouling **** was funny to watch in replay! Chino thought he was in an alley fight in Argentina!

It was pretty obvious when every time floyd would call him to save him, Weeks would step in and separate them. Every single time. Marcos would be in floyds grill, Weeks would be watching, then floyd would turn his head and complain to weeks, and then he would step in and make them reset. Didn't matter that Marcos was punching, or that floyd was holding him, when floyd called, Weeks was there, every single time.

I didn't read your whole post because after the first sentence, I realized it was ridiculous and that you were a damn idiot. If Weaks was trying to protect or save Floyd, then he would have taken points from Maidana for the blatant and deliberate fouls he committed throughout the fight, you moron!

mayweather started it with the excessive hold and elbows, cant cry if someone takes you up on a rough fight that you ask for.

Holding is not illegal and Floyd's holding was not excessive. How do you define excessive holding? What is the cut-off number before it becomes excessive. None of the showtime commentators ever mentioned anything about excessive holding by Mayweather. What you stated is totally subjective and is really just a bogus excuse and weak attempt to try in justify Maidana's dirty fighting.

Maidana fought dirty because it was the only way he thought he could win, but it didn't help him any, he still loss the damn fight.

[I Love Jesus!]

I thought Maidana was getting away a little much but Floyd also had some dirty moments in there too. But in the end I honestly dont care cause the dirty tactics is what made this fight fun.

For mayweather it wasn't the dirty tactics it was weeks illegally breaking them even though miadana had a hand free. He supposed to let them fight out but he stopped them every time benefiting mayweather obviously.
