    Horrible mismatch - little to no interest.

    This will resemble a particularly uncompetitive sparring session.

    It will be the most one sided Floyd fight since Baldomire, Maidana is C level

    Maidana is a No-Hoper.

    There's a reason why Floyd picked him. There are plenty of better choices legacy wise but we all know what's this about.

    No. I know previous opponents etc mean little on a fight. Styles make fights and what not.. but go back and look... maidana couldn't finish broner who jumped from 35-47.. he was hurt by lopez and struggled past lopez who canelo just walked through. Canelos bigger and stronger than maidana and most probably hits harder.

    I think maidanas power is being over-rated... the theory that broner is hard to hit is stupid, he gets hit alot. Maidana is decent v guys who are easy to hit, floyd will dominate this guy. He'l probably look better than he has for years and i seriously have it for a stoppage 7-12.. those jabs to the body and going to really keep maidana at bay. Maidana is wayyyyyyyyyyyy too slow and easy to hit for floyd.

    Judah knocked him dowm but it wasn't called. Another guy scored a knockdown early in Money's career.

    So Money has been knocked down already. I mean he is not Vitali KlitschKO.
     
  11. Hernandez officially knocked him down, and Judah unofficially knocked him down.

    Whether you want to argue if it was officially or unofficially, he was knocked down nonetheless .

    Technically, Floyd has been knocked down due to his glove touching the canvas during, I believe, the Judah fight, but the referee missed it. He hasn't been knocked off his feet, though, but Maidana will definitely not be the first person to do it. Maidana will have to shock the world to win a single round in this fight.

    Thank you for naming that fighter - Hernandez. I had forgotten his name and had no intetions whatsoever to watch Mayweather's fight again to find who was that guy.
