I actually thought about what he might have done. I know for a fact he could have stayed off the ropes, and used his movement all night to outclass Chino. It couldn't be that his legs were gone. Because even after all those body shots. he movement was fluent in the latter stages of the fight when he wanted to use it. Magic Johnson said it best when he fought against Canelo. "It's boring because Mayweather is just so much better than the other guy" This fight could have been a boring Unanimous Decision if Floyd would have just stayed off the ropes. If you watch the fight, there are times where he goes to the ropes himself. Floyd is a business man first. He realizes he only has 3 fights left. And he promised himself another big EASY payday by making Maidana look like something he's not. Now in a rematch, the odds will be closer. The casuals will buy in, and he'll outclass Maidana on the way to smooth UD. If you rewatch the fight, every time the fight was in the center of the ring. Floyd just countered him with right hands and dominated. Every time he sat on the ropes Chino got his best work in. You take away the punches Chino landed on the ropes and his punch output goes from 800 to around 300. In a rematch Floyd will win 11 rounds and that'll be that.
We won't know until the rematch. I don't buy into Floyd manipulating the outcome in order to generate more coin in the long run. But.. We will see in the rematch, If Mayweather absolutely blows Maidana out, then maybe you are right.

eh itll never work out for floyd in the long run...as far as respect goes...well just have to accept it if floyd rematches maidana in an easy UD its just "maidana was always a c level fighter anyway....proves nothing.....he lost to him before anyway hahahaha pedjr....duckweather" if he doesnt....theyll just say hes scared and ducking a guy that "beat" him
youre too dumb to start thinking too much. focus on your flipping burger career and stop getting punched in the face.:hi:
He tried to be in chinos face and got worked to the body and for the first time looked tired in a fight (at least to me), i was worried about it cuz I'm a *****. It was a close fight but floyd won but i was a little worried after that first scorecard was announced. The rematch will be a completely different fight floyd will pick him apart, floyd had the wrong game plan won't be the same in the rematch
he was. he stayed in his corner mostly towards the end so he didnnt need to walk at the end of the round.
Who the f uck wants a rematch? Pacquaio won. Floyd won. Floyd talked all that **** about Pacquaio. Time to back the **** up and fight the man.
:rofl It's sad when they are in damage control so hardcore that they're making up silly stuff like this that would be more pathetic in reality than simply having a legit struggle. Only a ***** would think that creating a fake performance to make it look closer to have an easy payday rematch in order to avoid the real tough fighters again would be something to celebrate. TBE
See this is what I was talking about yesterday when I incorrectly mistook you for someone.. The OP is a decent poster...but he is a Floyd nut hugger too. He is blatantly saying that Floyd chose to let Maidana look good against him with Floyd already thinking of a rematch... and he is dead serious. FLOYD (or anyone else) is NOT THAT GOOD to be able to do something like that. As I said the huggers refuse to accept it.
floyd didnt mean to do any of that. maidana forced him into the ropes. maidana may got outpointed but maidana dished out more damaged and maidana was way more of man in there. but mayweather did win the boxing match. it was superclose mayweather won by a slight margin imo
i hear what you are saying...i think fonz is ok for the most part....but i dont agree with the whole "made maidana look good" theory....im not saying its the most ridic thing ive heard and entirely impossible....but i dont agree but YCGS....you have to agree with me if floyd rematches maidana and wins an easy/clear UD....thats what theyll say...."well maidana was always garbage anyway...c level....and he already beat floyd" and if he doesnt theyll say hes shook/scared
you can go back in everyone of those threads...and you will not see me support those theories ive always said it was a tough/close fight.....it just is what it was....i may not agree with how maidana approached it and made it.....but it was a physical affair.....and tough
