    Wow.

    Couldn't even attempt to hide the clickbait with any words of your own, I mean other than the title? You must be a Mark Ant alt.

    Welcome back Mark.

    No, close though. I think I had it 115-113. There was a point in the second fight where Maidana hit May with a right hand while May was coming in just before the bell where, if the bell hadnt rung, Maidana might have put him down.

    I was hoping that Maidana would beat Floyd but no, Floyd won. Floyd won because he changed his strategy when his initial plan was foiled by Maidana.

    Floyd came back strong and won the last half of the fight. Close, but Floyd won.

    Gotta admit it was close but Floyd made the necessary adjustments to win. At the very best case scenario for Maidana, it could’ve been a tie but that’s really pushing it.

    No maidana didn't really do anything in the second half of the fight. He blew is load in the first half and was spent in the second half. That's why in the rematch he fought at a much more measured pace because it didn't work.

    Agreed. At round 6-7 I couldn’t believe what I was seeing and believed that Marcos was heading towards victory. But Floyd’s conditioning, discipline, and adjustments are even more impressive than his defensive skills. He closed out the show and got the deserved victory 8-4 or 7-5.

    Timestamped.

    Floyd Mayweather didn't even believe he won. The look on his face said it all. And scope out the fake arm pumping and hyping himself up.

    :jump:

    And to think if Floyd had let Maidana wear his preferred puncher's gloves.

    :ambulance:
