Comments Thread For: Canelo: Maidana Complicated Things For Mayweather

[WESS]

In your mind, maybe that is what happened but in reality, Maidana won most of the early rounds then got tired and gave Floyd the chance to win some rounds.

If Maidana had P.Williams type stamina and work-rate, Floyd would be in trouble for all 12 rounds! It had less to do with Floyd and all to do with Maidana.

Oh yeah, giving Maidana them pillow gloves instead of his puncher gloves, .... well, that was the real turning point!

lol, in your mind. The problem with your logic is, Floyd is 37 years old and no legs fighting someone in their prime. Maidana had excellent stamina for the fight.

Btw, if only Floyd got to wear the gloves he wanted vs De La Hoya... it might not have been so close, right? See how that works? He didn't give anything, Maidana took them just like Floyd did vs Hoya.

The turning point of the fight was after the final low blow in round 8. Maidana didn't win a round after that and didn't have anything to do with Maidana. He did the same thing over the entire night, nonstop. Floyd didn't which is why the fight turned around after the final low blow. More center of the ring fighting rather than laying on the ropes where Maidana would have made Dana White happy.

You can cry all you want and pull out the ifs and buts however at the end of the day the vast majority of the boxing community had Floyd winning. Remember, Zab Judah won 4 rounds too but didn't fight as dirty. Cotto won 2 - 3 rounds yet he didn't fight as dirty and still roughed Floyd up worse than Maidana.

The difference is that CHINO jump on his opponents to bite them,CANELO has slow feet and counter so if FLOYD stays in front of him the things doesn't change. When CANELO tried to block FLOYD to the ropes,he took a punishment and a boxing lesson HOW TO COUNTER!!! CANELO is better put his attention on LARA because the cuban is not ANGULO!!!

ZAB DIDN'T FIGHT AS DIRTY? ahahahh,do you remember what happened in that fight ?

So you think Floyd let Maidana beat him up just so he could entertain the fans?

Mayweather wasn't running? We're you expecting him to run off the ring and into the parking lot?

So you think Floyd attempted to box Maidana?

Like all of you guys in here, really think Mayweather tried to box Maidana?

Like seriously? I know a lot of you dumb yourselves when it comes to Mayweather, but please, don't dumb down too much.

Bingo. People always credit it to Floyd making adjustments. Maidana got tired. Most fighters slow down. Floyd is one of the very few who do not. Most of his so called (adjustments), are really fighters tiring.

Really? Where was Maidana tiring against Broner? Kotelnyk, Ortiz, Lopez, Karrass?

Where was Judah tiring against Garcia and Matthysse?

How come fighters all of a sudden have **** stamina against Floyd, but miraculously gain back their stamina against every other fighter? And before Floyd they had good stamina? How come it's only a Floyd thing? Does he sap fighters of their energy some how and uses it for himself? Some witchcraft **** going on there.

ZAB DIDN'T FIGHT AS DIRTY? ahahahh,do you remember what happened in that fight ?

He did two fouls back to back in one round. Low blow, rabid punch. Otherwise for 11 rounds it was a clean fight.

[Wizardsh]

Maidana wasn't the A-Side of the card to choose gloves which is why he eventually had to put on the ones he had on. Otherwise they could've called off the fight. But they didn't.

Why didn't they call the fight off altogether?

.

Cause maidana doest have b!tch in him
You ****** ****k not in the contract to choose maidana gloves it was Floyd being a twat. Btw how does it feel for your hero to give you a big fuuuukkkk you?

[MurkaMan]

Just stfu after mayweather give you a big ***you and said he only does it for himself you actually think he let maidana pin him and beat on him for 12rds you truly are a moron. Health comes and his fans can suck coooookkkk and that's coming from mayweather

Im not a Floyd fan idiot, he never gave me a big anything. Floyd has done this in plenty of fights. Plenty of times he could have EASILY got off the ropes or out of the inside. He put his gloves up and walked into the tight-pockets. From the opening bell at lots of points. The rematch will be like the Ghost fight in which he di NO inside fighting, and clinched 100% of the time they got close.

He did that to Ghost in the 1st round btw. And Floyd has fought so many fighters like Marcos, lets not act like Marcos did anything special. Floyd just came in the fight weak as hell.

Tried to overpower him and never stopped trying. Against Canelo Floyd walked him down and overpowered him and Canelo will crush Marcos' skull.

Effective aggression from from clubbing punches to the top and back of Floyd's head? Rabbit punches? Leading with his head and low blows? Not many clean punches? Most of the success he had was going to the body out of everything. That's not what I call effective aggression

Don't get me wrong. Maidana has success and did a great job of staying on top of Floyd and making him fight but Floyd got the better of Maidana. Maidana only won 4 rounds, giving him 5 is being generous.

I think Marcos beat the crap out of Floyd dude. Floyd normally avoids lowblows and heabutts. He moves out of the way.

In this fight he took a beatdown and never even tried to avoid that stuff.

But if you have allot of power and your throwing shots while Im blocking and absorbing on my arms. My whole body is rocking from rope to rope, you are fking winning the fight.

Now if you are weak and my body isnt rocking, Im blocking your shots with ease.

But because of the power he was being roughed up and never left.

It's hilarious when peoe say Floyd walked (a tired, disinterested, defeated) Canelo down. Lol, for 30 seconds in the 10th round. "Kudos."

He walked him down that whole fight. The fourth round was when shiet got serious for Canelo. The 6th, he stood in front of him and pinned him against the ropes. The 7th, he gave him that uppercut and pushed him to the corner. The 8th was when he started running. But the 9th until the 11th, he went right back flatfooted. The 12th he danced.
