    If you score the fight for Maidana or a draw, you might as well poke your eyes out cause clearly they don't work

    A draw was actually the correct score.

    But 7-5 for Floyd was not a robbery.

    Maidana rounds: 1, 5, and 8...

    Close rounds. Not a close score in total. People don't seem to understand there is a difference. Mayweather may have won the fight easily by the scorecards, but he did not win the fight easily.

    I don't see how anyone in the world can score rounds 2, 11, or 12 for Maidana... I really don't. You have to be looking to give him rounds if you wind up scoring any of those for him.

    3 and 4? Much more debatable in the favor of Maidana than some of the random rounds I've seen people somehow give Maidana in 2, 11, 12, or even 6 or 7.

    A draw Based on what, wrestling criteria?????.......cause Maidana certainly wasn't landing clean punches. But he did do a good job of roughhousing, headbutting, low blowing and tackling. Unfortunately that doesn't score in BOXING.

    Don't stress over people who scored it for Maidana because they appear to be in the minority. Don't stress over those who saw it as a draw because scoring is subjective and the difference between 7--5 and 6--6 is not a huge leap. It's just seeing one close round differently which could be the difference of 1 or 2 punches.

    I have watched the fight at least five times and the more I watched, the clearer the victory for Mayweather became. He just simply beat the man at his own game and showed him that he was lost when trying to fight Mayweather's fight. They both used rough tatics but Maidana went overboard with dumb ****. It happens like that sometimes. Don't care for a rematch,what's done is done. Besides, Mannny is the king of rematches and boxing series. That's a title Floyd don't want or deserve.

    Yes this. Sure he took the fight to Floyd but Floyd did all the EFFECTIVE work against him. So no this fight isn't a draw or even a Maidana fight hahhaa.

    This is starting to resemble the classic ***** strategy of repeating a lie until it becomes the truth.

    Scrappy fight, not a PBF classic but clear 8-4 victory. Maybe Maidana can join the UFC - I've hear there ain't much punching and more wrestling there!
