Actually let me take that back: Mayweather should've never fought Marquez to begin with, even in the latter's prime.
Minus Guerrero whom he should've never faced, those four other fights should have taken place years back when everybody was still in their primes....
The only significant fighters that Mayweather has fought since Hatton were the last two, Alvarez and Maidana. Marquez, Mosley, Cotto, Ortiz, and...
I forgot about this fight. You mean a one-eyed, semi-retired, grandpa Erik Morales.
And now Maidana's training with Ariza, the guy who supposedly gave Pacquiao those PEDs. :lol:
:lol: That would make Maidana the first boxer to face Pacquiao that didn't care for his power.
Pacquiao at 35 is still much faster than Maidana could ever be. No power, eh? So Marquez and Bradley had no respect for his power?
If Maidana can keep Manny on the ropes, he has a chance. But Manny never allows himself to get trapped on the ropes for too long. If Manny were to...
Nobody before this fight would have given Maidana a chance against Pacquiao. Stylistically, it just favours Manny better. After this fight......
Maidana won the last round. But I feel 7-5 for Mayweather is right. Floyd started taking control from round 7 onwards.
Maidana was edging him out in the first half but Floyd took over starting in the 7th, though I felt Maidana won the 12th. 117-111 is still terrible.
I'm a Filipino and a die-hard Pacquiao fan, but I always hope that Mayweather's fights perform well in terms of PPV just for the sake of boxing's...
Marquez or Provo are the only options for a matchup in the fall.
If Pacquiao is easy work then it would be an easy $100 million payday that Floyd is avoiding.
Because stylistically he's more of a threat than those two.
