    No excuses here, I had maidana 7-5. Floyd looked old and tired before round 6 to me. But the size weight advantage obviously helped Maidana and he didn't tire like I thought he would late

    Sounds like an excuse to me.

    That's the most well-hidden 18 lb weight advantage I've ever seen. Maidana must've been hiding it all in his balls.

    Thought he definitely tired, especially during rds 9-10, although he came back strong in 11 and 12. Maidana always does that.

    I didn't see that much of a size difference.

    It's nothing like Pacquiao/Margarito, where the guy had like a clear 2 division advantage.

    Yeah i know it does, I just wanted to point that out I think it really helped Maidana.

    Maidana didn't even really look big at 140 (Ortiz looked a lot bigger), find this hard to believe. He isn't a big welter.
