Nobody claims that. And if they do, they are trolling or being dramatic to emphasize some sort of point. There is no case for Maidana to win unless you use your own scoring criteria. For the record, I guaranteed that Maidana would win 3 rounds. So, not everybody tried to dismiss him before the fight started to push an agenda or to show their ignorance towards determining skill and how styles mesh. I too had it 117-111. Close rounds indeed, many of them. But you score them 3 minutes at a time using a set criteria of rules and judging. I think Porter, Thurman, even D. Garcia moving up to WW, and a rematch with Cotto at MW all make sense and would further pad Mayweathers' legacy.
If anything it should be Mayweather who should be asking for a rematch. Don;t get me wrong I still think Mayweather will beat Maidana as I know he did last fight but it was close. He should prove that he can box around him and not "give the fans a good fight".
I don't think he does necessarily but that he's still the best option. Cotto is Top Rank now:deal, Khan is out because of personal reasons, and Garcia is coming off a controversial win and entering a new division, Thurman isn't ready and nobody know who he is yet. Maidana surely deserves a rematch more than Guerrero does. It's probably significant that he won more rounds than both Cotto and Canelo did. I just don't see Floyd doing any better sales than Maidana II with a solid co-main event :hey.
Chino is the man.:bbb:happy....He deserves another shot but I doubt the result will change as Money is too smart to play the game the same twice:good :smoke
The next fight,Floyd will move and box and will beat him easier.. Marcos showed that he got frustrated by doing all of those fouls,for that reason Floyd may feel he does not deserve to fight,not to mention the "If I had my gloves I would have won",which is clearly acknowledging he knows he lost..
No.Floyd would probably beat him more easily next time Maidana could have used the double jab more and keep his punches less wide at times. Other than than that,he fought a perfect fight.
Or it will confirm that he fought that way because Maidana forced him to b/c he was willing to walk through his shots. Look either Maidana will do better, worse or the same as the first fight. They're all possibilities.
super middleweight marcos, could not beat little floyd right. what does that tell you about marcos!! Remember, the illegally padded gloves folks? who dictates terms or conditions to floyd again!!
