    Floyd is not a big puncher at 147

    He has 1 KO at 147 (Hatton)

    He will also be extra cautious against a puncher like Chino

    Floyd might not be the most powerful puncher but due to his speed and how well he is at picking his spots, yeah, he is going to KO Maidana or TKO him. This is not going the distance, he will go to his body and this will be like the Gatti Fight.

    Maidana may hit hard but not as hard as Canelo, Cotto nor Judah. I just do not believe the hype.

    He actually has 3 KOs at 147. None the less, he's a pretty sharp and accurated puncher. Maidana won't be able to just walk through Mayweather's shots.

    You guys are arguing my facts with your opinions. Fact, Mayweather has 3 KO wins at WW. You can try to qualify it all you want, those are the facts.

    With all respect sparring really means nothing because maybe the guy will be talking it easy ext better to take real boxing fights guys who fought both that is a better way of judging these kind of things in my humble opinion.

    Definitely not with a head shot, but Maidana can be hurt to the body very easy...

    If floyd is so brittle, why dont his opponents just punch right through him then?

    Good post.

    Biggest myth in boxing have to be a big puncher to stop someone.At this lvel a culmination of punches from any fighter even malignaggi will hurt youWhen its as accurate as floyd against a come forward in your face fighter like maidana there is every chance exhaustion and sheer amount of punches will wear maidana down.

    Il be there cheering on the ko

    It's Mayweathers fighting style that dictates the power of his punches. The folk that say he has "no power" are just being ridiculous. At the end of the day. This fight is such a mismatch and a joke. It wouldn't surprise me if Mayweather wears Miadana down and stops him late.
