    He was fighting Mayweather. A pretty good fighter I'd say.

    He didn't have his way with him in round 2 or 3 or 6. Round 3 was kind of close, but FLoyd landed the much clearer shots upstairs and Marcos landed the cleaner shots to the body. It was close, but I think FLoyd got round 3.

    Round 4 I gave To Marcos but once again he didn't land the more clear shots. FLoyd's punch output was a bit low that round as he kept pawing at his eye when blood was trickling into it from the headbutt.

    In the first 6 rounds, if you give Marcos rounds 3 and 4, the most he could've won was 4-2. And that's giving Marcos every close round. personally I had it 3-3 in the first 6. FLoyd won rounds 2, 3 (close) and 6 (clear round.)

    Robert Garcia has helped Chino a lot. The first half of the fight he didn't wait on Mayweather and got off first. I could see Chino earning 3-4 of the first 6 rounds honestly. Chino will be a tough out for any counterpuncher.

    Scored it also 7-5 for Maidana but i can respect 6-6 if im being very generous to Floyd.

    That one judge is on the payroll of the circus team.

    I had the Canelo fight much closer than most people. Mayweather chilled out a lot of the rounds and an ineffective jab from Canelo took a few for me. No doubt Mayweather smashed Canelo, but round for round I had it close. I still had Mayweather up by about 2 or 3 all the same.

    I actually had Maidana up one round last night. When Mayweather was on, he looked spectacular. His right hand was outstanding and I was ridiculously impressed when he managed to man up and take the centre of the ring in the late middle rounds. I had Maidana just taking a lot of the rounds with the flurries on the ropes, but I in NO way consider it a robbery. I can even see how Mayweather could win by a huge margin, because May could easily have been the more impressive with his clean and powerful strikes on a lot of scorecards.

    Stop making us all ashamed to be boxing fans. No one is nut hugging Mayweather, we just know boxing and are fans of the guy as a result.

    Although one thing; Mayweather didn't 'toy' with Maidana like he said. He did against Cotto. He wanted to be on the ropes and show off. But the scrappiness of Maidana was giving May legitimate trouble, and he was getting the ring cut off when he didnt want it to be and struggles at times to take back the centre.

    You mean haters in full ****** mode? What we saw was a more exciting fight than Pac v Rios + Bradley I + Bradley II combined. Floyd gets everyone excited even the haters. Floyd is becoming exciting while Pac is running.

    floyd did good in the later half of fight.

    but man it just seems maidana is the one who dished out more damage.

    i thought the fight coulda went either way.

    We thought most Froidfans were mentally-challenged? They are braindead, yet rabidly and blindly fanatical. Exhibit A above. :good

    Floyd clearly won the fight. Maidana put a great effort but Mayweather's class prevailed.

    Agreed, If you go look at everyone on this forums history, the only people that have Maidana winning, are people that have been critical of Floyd the entire time, and are grasping at straws to find Floyd losing.

    Nasty body punching and clean right hands, Money pulled it out. Find it funny no one is talking about who was stronger in the last 2 rounds.
