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

[Beercules]

Both fought dirty and it's no secret Floyd's constant clinching and forearms to the throat annoyed Maidana.

Let not make it seem like Floyd is some clean fighter. Look at the Hatton fight

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.

Exactly..while Garcia distracted the ref and Maidana and Rios stomped Floyd...only to have the ref turn around and count Floyd out...this was not a damn boxing match at all...even Floyd said "what is this" after he was tackled

[-MAKAVELLI-]

they BOTH should have gotten point deductions...Chino for his rough house tactics and Floyd for excessive holding

Weeks has become a garbage ref as of late


let Bayless handle the big fights..he seems the most capable

[Bigg Rigg]

If a guy is holding, idc if he gets hit behind the head. Also, Floyd has never even been warned for his job jones like elbows. **** that, Chino didn't deserve no penalty IMO.

Where do knees to the face and Goldburg spears fit into this??? keep it real damn if a ma****a did this to Manny you would be pissed

what about broner throwin Molina to the canvas? will black people ever admit they do anything wrong? Floyd using elbow, forearms in the neck, glove in maidanas mouth, but no, no that **** wasn't dirty because it was Floyd doing it. Yeah dirties fight in years because maidana gave Floyd a taste of his own medicine and beat him too. you floydiots are shook. "NO REMATCH DOEEE!!"

Race? You really hurting huh?

It was acknowledged that Floyd was also a lil dirty, but becuz he is black its ok that's its done to him? This isn't the 1800s....

I thought Bayless would have been the obvious choice for this fight. He's the best in the game right now.

Chino fought dirty, but it helped make the fight competitive. Floyd had some nasty forearms in there as well. Maidana definitely got under his skin.

[WilkinsOlajuwon]

I dont know...this fight wasnt really THAT dirty--especially compared to some real dirty fights. It was more SLOPPY. I think its getting exaggerated because it's Floyd.

Good, competitive, close fight. Move on.

[Frank Ducketts]

Maidana was getting rough at points but there were times when Maidana was just throwing punches and Floyd was looking to Tony Weeks for help.

Lmmfao...
