    Maidana gave Floyd a tough fight and some fans are cracking on Floyd because of it. Saying Chino loss to Khan, Alexander, etc.. yet gave Floyd problems....well what does Maidana's record got to do with it, do records dictate who he is a problem for and who he's not? Let's take a trip back, recall when Floyd fought Emmanuel Augustus as an intro opponent to the lightweight division? Augustus has double figure losses yet he was one of Floyd's toughest fights. What was his style? Nonstop punching, swarming, unorthodox angles, fouling, mauling, just like Maidana, just like Castillo.

    But here's the thing, they successfully made it an ugly, dirty, rough fight but Floyd still emerged victorious. Give credit where it's due, dude isTBE
