    They'll say Floyd got old, it was Bayless's fault, Bob bought the judges, he was distracted by something Miss Jackson did, everyone was jealous of his "O", it was Alex Ariza's fault, Memo gave Floyd Flintstones vitamins instead of PEDs, the excuses will be endless............

    I wouldn't doubt it, kind of like excuses for Pacquiao since 2/20.

    Because many of us, if not most of us use some kind of bias when scoring a fight. In fact using bias is the norm.

    Judges biasly score rounds based on specific styles...

    Us fans also use bias when scoring close fights, depending on what you like or are looking for in a fight style.

    Many fanatics such as Flom0s and other fan boys use only bias when scoring...ya dig?



    .... You don't know this? What the hell kind of boxing follower are you?

    I don't have anything against you assuming this, but it has never been proven.. There's no telling how an undefeated fighter and his fans will react after a loss.. Look at Broner.. People said he'll do the worst when he lost and he will lose all his fans.. I actually like him more.. Floyd fans might make a million excuses or they might give Pac props.. You're not really basing your post off of anything at all...

    No. It would completely de value pacs win to claim floyd was no good. They are the 2 best fighters of their generation, regardless of how the fight goes.

    But Team Maidana admitted they lost the first fight and the second wasn't as close as the first...

    But I mentioned that I've only watched it once and scored it for Maidana with a disclaimer stating that I may have been bias...

    Nevertheless it was a very close fight.

    Oh sorry it should read 43-3-1 or 43-4-1 on May 2 I forgot Floyd should have been DQ'd for the cowardly attack on Victor Ortiz
