Floyd "Money" Mayweather vs. Marcos "Chino" Maidana May 3rd
- Thread starter Coach E. No
- Start date
I scored the fight a draw only because the dumb as ref didn't deduct points from Miadana. I had Miadana ahead 5-0 but Floyd came back and tied it up.
If the ref would have taken points for the low blow, knee, and clubbing punches then Floyd wins on my card. I think Miadana's dirty fighting style had a negative impression on two of the judges.
To those of you who saw this fight and think Pacquiao has any chance, you must be on some kind of drugs. Miadana was over 160 pounds and Floyd took his shots. Pacquiao doesn't stand a chance against Floyd or Miadana, so he better run back down to 140.

Maidana rehydrating that much weight probably had a negative effect on him. As soon as I saw that weight I said to my people he may get fatigued and it did certainly appear he faded mid fight.
As far as dirty tactics, yes Maidana is more blatant but if your going to talk about tactics Floyd was holding excessively and a .points of the fight literally would not let go of Maidana's arm.
Lastly, people should not overlook the fact that Maidana was not allowed to wear a punchers glove. Team Floyd rejected a Total of 10 pairs og gloves, including Everlast MX and Cleto Reyes. Maidana was forced to wear Everlast Powerlocks which he's never worn before in his career and is heavily padded. To me that was a major bitch move from Floyd, as Cotto wore Everlast MX against him and he's fought plenty of guys wearing Cleto Reyes. If I'm Maidana I would only accept a rematch if it specifically says in the contract he can wear MX gloves.

Maidana always fights dirty. I've never not see him fight dirty.
But yes excessive holding is dirty, which is why we saw Amir Khan deducted a point in the match prior. I'm not talking about a clinch, I'm talking about the times when Floyd was against the ropes and he would not let go of Maidana's arm(s) even as the ref is trying to break them.
But yes I agree, Maidana fought a good dirty fight which is probably what is needed since there is a huge gap in skill level between the two. Gotta use rough house tactics basically

Oh yea for those of u who said that Floyd also rehydrates alot on fight night and never shows his fight night weight because of it, what do yall have to say now since we saw his fight night weight versus Canelo & Maidana and he barely gains any pounds on fight night. I guess that excuse is gone out the window also lol. Floyd fights in his natural and right division and doesnt ballon up to try to take advantage of little guys like most these other fighters do. Floyd still smack up fighters who come in 20 pounds heavier lol. Got Em!!

really close fight i had floyd up by one round, gona have to watch it again tho. i can see how the judges had it up and down for floyd tho, there were alot of close rounds and i guess the two judges scored it for mayweather instead. i thought both fighters were pretty "dirty". chino with the low blows, but like 2-0 said floyd was holding a lil too much on the ropes in those clinches. plus floyd kept using alot of elbows. Maidana did try to hit em with that ground and pound tho lol.

If you ignore that Floyd repeatedly uses his forearms to dudes faces and pushes them off, holds their heads down with his forearm and elbow and you don't think that's illegal, you're trippin. Floyd knows how to play the game, just like BHOP.

You left out that Tyson even thought he himself was the best ever even though deep down he said it wasn't so...Floyd has said the same...that he may not be the best ever but of his generation he fought them all and wants to be remembered as the SMARTEST BUSINESSMAN of the sport as well as an ALL TIME GREAT. That best ever talk is to infuriate people with low I.Q.s It's easy to inflame dummies...see Jack Johnson or Mohamed Ali.
