    Nope. Wilder vs. Scott, Clottey vs. Pac and Mosley vs. Pac all would rank way ahead of this fight.

    It's funny how people say Floyd pays everyone off.. It makes no sense really...

    Every time this topic comes up, I ask a simple question that no one answers without sounding stupid.. First of all, if Floyd paid off his opponent, why would he need to pay off anyone else? Besides that, if his opponent won the fight, it would be worth more than any amount of money Floyd would pay him.. He would have won 3 belts.. You can imagine how much praise a guy would get for beating Floyd.. You guys really think that these fighters have no integrity at all...

    People even claim Pac knew Floyd tested positive for PEDs and kept quiet because Floyd paid him.. In that situation, Pac would be just as much of a bad guy as Floyd.. 0 integrity...

    If you watched Bayless through the years, you would know his style of referring. It's been the same throughout the years. He always breaks up clinches fast.

    Maidana didn't come to fight. He came to collect a paycheck

    Voted for the 2nd option just because you clearly wrote it to try and stop people voting for it not being fixed

    Same. The voting system seems a little fixed to me.

    It's called a false dilemma. The OP is a mongoloid and the obvious and correct answer is that the fight was neither fixed nor was it the best refereeing job ever, and it damn sure wasn't anywhere close to the worst either.

    I 100% agree with you. Maidana no matter what was not going to win again. Like I said in my original post, which Mike Tyson also concurred with, Maidana put on a once in a life time performance. That he would never replicate.

    So the fact the Kenny Bayless was so blatantly paid off, and the worst part of all is he was too stupid to do it subtlely, is an insult to my intelligence. Just watch RD 10 with 1 min left, Maidana is nailing Mayweather with multiple left hooks, and despite that fact Bayless actually Instantaneously jumps in risking getting hit with a Maidana punch, just to protect Floyd.

    It's not Floyd's fault at all in that you are correct. It is the promoters, odds makers, anyone else that stands to gain tens of millions of dollars to see a result that the must have. Floyd will get paid regardless.

    And I love Floyd and Pac they are the only two must watch PPV fighters that help promote the sport.

    They had to fix it from the gloves, to the ref, to the judges, to insure Mayweather won. I don't think you realize how much money he is generating his producers. Hundreds of millions of dollars. Now since he has 2 fights left, since he is hinting at fighting Pac, the biggest fight in boxing history, there is no possible way they would allow him to lose, if they have to pay off pennies to judges, refs, or fighters in the grand scheme of things.

    Now I know I sound like a conspiracy theorist, but the only reason I have made these points is because Bayless was obviously paid off, a judge actually scored it 115-113, and Maidana started the fight backing up, and despite the fact he threw 100 punches the first round, threw like 10 the first!

    The worst part is that it was all so blatant, like they didn't even care or attempt to make it believable.

    Please go to RD 10 2 min in and tell me what you think, I really want to know your opinion.

    The canelo and oscar fights were fixed, Maidina is such a bum there's no need to fix anything. He came into the ring in worse shape than their first match, he cannot even punch straight, completely gassed already in the 5th round.

    Maidana is a bum.

    It is why the wwe fooled a lot of people for sometime before they realized it was just scripted and all act for entertainment and money. Thing is there are still some who believe it to be real. He he he....

    Bayless was fine, same job as always. Re-watched Canelo fight last night, exactly the same style of reffing. No dispute in my eyes.
