Comments Thread For: Maidana: Maybe I am Dirty, But so is Mayweather!

[The Big Dunn]

Actually what Maidana is saying is...he's countering floyds dirty elbow tactics with his own. As for Maidana's "rabbit punching" that Floyd is referring to, its actually overhand right hands that he throws. If Floyd doesnt want to be hit in the back of the head then he shouldnt turn his head.

Garcia laid out the gameplan before the fight. As such, Its hard for you to argue that Maidana's tactics were a response.

I agree with the overhand rights. some were dirty, some were not. think its one of the reasons Floyd went to the corner-using the ropes almost as a shield or "an extra defender" since those shots were effective in the middle of the ring.

The bottom line is Floyd is not just a slick boxer. he is a 2nd generation boxer whose father and uncles fought as pros when it was a different game. Floyd knows and employs all the dirty tricks in the book.

Floyd is a lot like ric flair-he may be the greatest technician ever in the ring but is also one of, if not the, dirtiest player(s) in the game.

Floyd a dirty fighter? Never!

Larry "Legend" Bird was nicknamed the "dirtiest player in the game."

Straight from the horse hair's mouth again. He admits he's dirty.

It's the only way he thinks he can win.

If you don't want to catch an elbow don't clinch.

Floyd initiates the clinch alot he ties up one arm, look how he strongholds Hattons arm, he was the one tying up.

Floyd likes guys that he can hold, he hits and holds.

when chino said this, he laughed, he was messing around with the press (this is frome the video posted yesterday) but he is right, if he is dirty, so is floyd. at least marcos keeps it honest and doesn't accuse floyd of being a criminal, he calls it how it is.

Floyd's boxing tricks. Must see video.

People use the term "elbows" but in actuality Floyd uses his forearms to create space between he and an aggressive opponent so he can unleash offense. Usually occurs when Floyd is being smothered on the ropes. Not legal but not the indictment the word "elbows" suggest.

They're both dirty, stop acting like Maidana's tactics are justified.

So you admit now that Floyd does fight dirty because that's how he learned to fight...
