If Marquez landed the punch Maidana did. Would Floyd have been sleeping?

    I was more so agreeing with Pimp C's point and acknowledging the flawed thinking behind the haters in this thread. Comments I would say that are a lot more biased. A lot of hoopla has been made about the punch Maidana landed, but he had 9 rounds to capitalize and didn't.

    I critique Mayweather's attitude, ducking, cherry picking and gift decisions. However, there are many threads on that and does not need to be repeated here. I personally don't know if you are being naive or pretending not to spread an agenda, but a legitimate question/thread would have been to ask who hits harder Marquez or Maidana. Given their welterweight resumes thus far it would seem Maidana. With regards to the punch I could think of several fighters historically who would have put Mayweather down given the same circumstances, Marquez not being one of them.

    he didnt leap into it like the shot marquez ko'd pac with though he was moving forward into it.

    if the 147 mosley floyd fought landed that same shot floyd would have gone down tho, not marquez
