I think Floyd will taste the Canvas for the first time ever against Chino.

    I have him winning. But I think he's going to get caught by something. Chino is going to be throwing the whole fight. A lot of people say they are gonna brutalize someone, Guerrero said it, Ortiz said it. But neither of them got in there and wanted to brawl. Even Guerrero tried establishing a jab and ****.

    I feel like Maidana is going to go to him from the first bell to the last, and I question if Floyd has the power to keep Chino off. I know Floyd isn't pillow fisted, but he's not this huge puncher either.

    If he's going to win this fight he has to be a lot more active. He can't fight at a slow tempo. Maidana could win on activity alone if he tries that.

    I know a lot of people are calling this fight now. But I think it's going to be one of the more interesting FMJ fights in a while.

    We gotta guy in Maidana who knows he can't outbox Floyd. He's gonna go for it. We'll see though .

    I got FMJ by UD or TKO. But I think we'll see him go down in this fight. I don't know if he can take a flush punch from Chino at 37.

    Mayweather can keep Chino off him, I think he will hurt Chino to the body. Chino isn't exactly Chavez or Duran in footwork, nor is he a one shot KO artist.

    I don't give Chino much of a chance at all. Even at 37, Floyd is far far better. As a whole, boxing has suffered due to the lack of teaching, resulting in a decline in technical skills and a lot of the subtle things. Mayweather is not one of those fighters.

    MM needs to box and save his power for the right moment then let the punches fly. If he tries to brawl from the get go (unless the ref let's a lot of dirty stuff go) he'll probably get lit up.

    Chino will get brutally countered if he keeps coming and coming. The more he comes, the more he's going to get countered.

    Maidana has improved with his new trainer, he is faster, hits harder, his defense is much better and he still has a rock chin. He might very well knock Void down, but Void has his own personal referee who will call it a slip, Void also has his judges, no judge in Vegas will ever score a fight against Void............

    Maidana had some shaky moments against Broner late, and as good as he fought in that match, he was still backed up and hurt by Broner. Mayweather will walk Maidana down and stop him, Mayweather by all out body assault, TKO 9.

    I'm not going to say it is impossible. For all we know, Floyd COULD show his age suddenly. It's possible but not probable. No one has done it yet and Maidanas power is over rated. Floyd wont allow a guy with poor movement get a lot of purchase on the punches either.

    I don't, they are so different in class. I wish Floyd would fight someone better.

    I have a feeling Floyd will make this a close fight just so he can say he's been to a tough fight.
