Why did Floyd look so scared in this fight? Why did he have to rely on crooked judges to get a decision? Why did the supposed p4p get handled?

Because Maidana was a bigger, stronger guy who had an iron will. Most guys are mentally already down on the scorecards before the bell even rings. -
Maidana did what many great fighters couldn’t that night
Maidana had the desire and the right styleComment

Can you imagine maidana with his punchers glove? for sure he wins 8-4 or late ko.
Floyd was very smart to pay him some extra millions to wear pillows at last minute.Comment

He was really aggressive the first half and then naturally got tired and mayweather took over.Comment

Another idiot thats never boxed before, there is no such thing as pillow gloves in a professional boxing match, they all hurt and they can all knock you out.Originally posted by _Maxi View Post
The punchers glove is glove marketing, statistics dont show an advantage, the fighters pick gloves on how they feel on your hands.
Floyd had fought lots of guys in the very same glove Maidana wanted Cotto wore them and I think maybe Mosley, the bottom line is the glove is a psychological thing as well as a nice fit, if there was a clear advantage to any glove they were all be wearing them.
Maidana came away from the fight saying he now knows why Floyd was the best fighter in the world.Comment

Because Floyd was 37, past his prime and hadn’t fought a guy who was aggressive with rough house tactics for years.
He’d been used to fighting guys who are better at distance and had time to think.
Maidana was bigger, stronger and all kind of problems for that past prime version of Floyd.
Saw it coming before the fight, I knew it would be Floyd’s hardest fight in years.Comment
