I have had plenty of criticism for Mayweather in the past, but I also believe in being fair and giving credit where it is due. In this particular case I admired how he stood in there and engaged, and I also agree with nearly everything he said about the fight afterward. Both inside the ring and out, one of Floyd's best nights, IMO.
This guy in nearly 40 and still unifying weight divisions. When Flyd fought Shane Mosley, Shane was 38 and people were calling Shane old although he had just ko'd Margarito. Floyd is 37 going on 38 and he has a competitive fight and ppl are jumping all over him. Its a testament to how great Floyd is. These haters give him his props without even knowing they are doing it.
I still find it pretty amazing that Floyd is competing in a high level at nearly 38 year old. Robert Garcia is the same age as Mayweather and he was done quick as fighter, now he is a trainer. Threw out Mayweathers career weve seen how Floyd has beaten boxers that have a 20 pound advantage. Its basically like a handicap boxing match. Mayweather fights them all weighing only 146-148. MAIDANA in this case weighed 165 pounds and Canelo weighed 166 on fight night. Imagine Maidana fighting at the same weight mayweather did 148. He would have no power weighing 147 flat or even 150.
116-112 for Floyd Mayweather. Marcos Maidana basically won the first half of the fight. Floyd made adjustments, accurate counter punching, hard body shots, ring generalship. However Maidana still made it a physical fight down the stretch but began missing way to many punches didn't do enough to win but great fight.
Mayweather won the fight, he said before the fight that he was going to stand and fight Maidana and make it exciting and that is exactly what happened, be it on purpose or because the relentless pressure Maidana applied gave "Money" no choice. Kudos to Maidana for giving such a tough fight but Mayweather scored clean and effective punches. He was more accurate.
jdvicvega0 lol no bruh u dont know shit about boxing, i box and and im telling u u dont know shit about boxiing, slopping brawling and throwing 800 punches and landing 23% of them isnt going to win u a fight. Boxing is a art of fighting.
Mayweather was not the catalyst of that fight being exciting at all! Maidana chased him round the ring floyd is so fucking boring id rather watch paint dry. He's like the chelsea FC of boxing gets results but in such a dull manner its unreal.
***** percentages don't mean shit. You can throw 10 punches and land 6 and that's 60% and the opponent can throw 100 punches and land 40 and that's only 40% but who's the real winner here?
Carlos Colmenares You are right Carlos, but Mayweather did only throw 6 punches. He threw almost has many as Maidana, and landed more... So you statement does really hold water. Arm punches don't win a boxing match...
Carlos Colmenares percentage wouldn't mean shit if that was the case but the fact that he still landed more punches than maidana is what makes percentage count! like you said "you can throw 10 punches & land 6 and thats 60%" BUT if you throw 100 but land less than the other guys 6. YOU AINT SHIT!
I think its funny how people talk about a sport and someone decides to start name calling. I can guarantee you WOULD NOT say any of that face to face. You internet tuff guys make me laugh. Keep it to the topic. If you want to make it personal, come on down to my gym and we can deal with it man to man instead of the net.
Mayweather put a positive stamp on his legacy with this win. If as a fighter he never faces adversity. We'd always wonder how he would handle it. Great fight and I can't wait for the rematch. Best defensive fighter in history.
Do you remember the fight against Castillo?. Are you sure he was Unbeatten?. Too many explanations to justify a victory. McFloyd said something rel ""I always find a way to win"....he forgot to menthion...."I asked daddy to pay the bill....I bought a couple of scorecards""....I repeat ... too many explanations to justify a tied fight...were he lost every round until the end of 5th round. Then...there were many tied rounds, and 3 cleanly won by Mayweather. There is no chance to justify 2 points in difference in both cases. in the worst case .... Assuming McFloyd as winner ... there is no chance to justify one of the judges. Daddy paid the bill....thats it.
ya'll just love to hate Mayweather... i swear its pathetic, i'm a fighter my self and i saw greatness in how he kept his composure and made the necessary adjustments and turned the fight around, you guys are too busy hating its killing the sport, "AS HE SAID BEFORE" this guy dedicated his life to the sport and is 37 fucking years old, and just fought a fucking relentless beast in maidana, and maidana had to make it dirty and rough but still couldn't get the W, IN THE JUDGES FUCKING OPINION, NOT YOURS
You said a mouth full it was obvious that Floyd laid on the ropes for maidana and still did capitalize on it he smothered must of his own punches and fought dirty try push someone out the round hitting with low blows and then tried to knee Floyd in the he but the haters are talking about that bs....hmmmmmm
Maidana didn't even hurt mayweather. It looked like he was throwing punches hoping one hay maker would land. Yet once again mayweathers defense held up very well. You could tell Maidana was getting tired by the later rounds and may took advantage and became more offensive. The way I see it, Maidana had nothing to lose. May picked his shots and did the whole "rope a dope" on Maidana. Overall it was a very good fight. Give Maidana credit for going out there and throwing down. Unlike Canelo who didn't put up much of a fight.
I think non-boxing fans hate more because they don't understand what they are looking at when watching a fight but still try to voice their opinion as fact. Most people think that when a guy land a punch on the arms, gloves, or back that they count.
"Floyd did not fight like the man I expected him to," Maidana added, according to Showtime. "He made me change the gloves. I had bigger gloves and everything and I still gave him a fight." --Maidana--
That guy in the crowd from Argentina is mad because Maidana lost. Just accept the fact that he lost. It's funny how Floyd called him out though. And he was right. lol
***** It's not about color ***** people like who they like no matter where they're from. That guy was just upset. Floyd went through that boxing glove situation with Oscar and he didn't complain at all. People will find an excuse for anything when they don't win.
Oscar situation was different, it was not a day before the fight that Oscar made Floyd change gloves. Plus lots of people hate floyd not because he is black but he is a racist, woman beater and a cheating hit run hold repeat fighter.
Emanuel Pacquiao How was the situation different with Oscar? It doesn't matter if it was a week or an hour before the fight. The fact is Oscar was the top fighter at the time and Floyd had to adhere to Oscar's request. Now Floyd is the top fighter. He has the say so over a lot in HIS fights. That includes drug testing, gloves, and everything else that he has power over. Fabian didn't say anything about people hating Floyd. He said that black people support Floyd simply because he's black and that's not true. That's why I said people like who they like. You're not on the subject we're on.
Floyd before the first fight with maidana : “ I’m going to give y’all a different fight” Floyd after the first maidana fight “ if we fight again in September, am I going to fight the same fight absolutely not!” Floyd years before the manny fight “And after I beat manny they are gonna say I was too big for pacquio it or this and that” Floyd after the manny fight “ excuses excuses excuses “ At least he was being honest.
I watch the fight 3 times now.. And floyd did win the fight.. Maidana did give him some problems on the ropes, and score some points here and there, I'm not saying floyd won it easy.. Even do it was a rough fight at times .. and floyd never really adapt as easy as he's use to in the past vs any style. But i have floyd floyd winning 7-5..But Did maidana make it interesting and will a rematch in september be deserving..?? Absolutely YES... i will like for them to do it again.. It will be a much better fight than watching floyd Vs Amir Holding Khan....
A true champion not afraid to take a risk, not afraid to be knockdown or lose to the fight not like what he is always doing..! fighting for surviving of legacy.!!!
Tonywestspeaks! FLOYD MAYWEATHER PUTS HIS "PREFECT RECORD" ON THE LINE AND GOES "TOE" TO "TOE" WITH "CHINO" MAIDANA AND "DOMINATES" HIM IN A "SLUG FEST" THAT WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY! Floyd goes toe to toe with "Chino" Maidana who is a "brawler" type of "pressure" fighter who style is to come forward while throwing "unrelentless" overhand head shots from awkward angles. This fight was a PPV treat for the "real" boxing fan enthusiast who likes a good brawl with non-stop action from the opening bell to the closing bell. This fight with "Chino" Maidana was more "competitive" than the Castillo 1 & 2 fights and was on the same level as the Cotto fight "except" for a few "dirty" tactics from Chino that escape the referee attention. This fight was "down" played by a few sport fans and Manny Pacquaio supports who wrote the fight off from the very beginning. The fact of reality is that every "real" boxing fan enthusiast, sports writer and analysis knew it was going to be a tought "competitive" fight for Floyd because of "Chino" Maidana "unrelentless" fighting style that would give Floyd Mayweather some "serious" problems even though they picked Floyd to win. The "ONLY" ones that are waking up this morning and saying that they are so "shocked" and never thought this fight would be so "competitive" are the "bias" and mostly "hating" supporters of Manny Pacquaio that would NEVER give Mr Mayweather his due credit anyway because they are basically "envious" and "brainless" sport fans who "don't know SHIT about boxing" to begin with... Or the business side thereof. I thought Chino Maidana did exactly what he was supposed to do eventhough It took Mr Mayweather just a little bit longer to make the "adjustment" to Maidana. People who are "delusional" and "illogical" because of their personal "hatred" towards Mr Mayweather don't realize that those "sick" adjustments that Mr Mayweather can make inside the ring during a fight is "exactly" what makes Mr Mayweather so great. If that's the reason why these "groupie" part-time "bias" boxing fans and personal "haters" of Mr Mayweather are yelling Floyd looked like he might have lost a step or two and yada, yada, yada... Well... to be honest with you... That's expected from these "haters" and I am not at least one bit surprised! At the end of the day... Mr Mayweather still got the "W" and that's all that matters. FMJ... Now..."46“-0-0 & Still counting... TBE... PERIOD! :)
Floyd Mayweather is a beast, this dude is the real deal. Name another fighter with the capacity to adjust in the ring like this guy... Round six and on the fight was different, Alot different. Fans and people alike hype maidanas punches, he was wild and dirty and was trying to use some Muay Thai techniques with those knees lol.. Jk, but Floyd is a great fighter.
Fights like the two fights Mayweather and Maidana fought, provide learning experiences for the fighters coming up! I love watching both fights, seeing how Mayweather handled himself and, Maidana!
@ Maidana Fans : he landed punches on mayweathers arms, elbows and back shoulders. And he definately landed bunches of punches on back of mayweathers "HEAD" which is not legal. Maidana low blowed Mayweather 2 times on purpose, tried to hit mayweather with his Knee, and even tackeled Mayweather to the ground like if it was wrestling/MMA. Clearly Maidana was a dirty fighter, yet the dumb casual fans say Maidana won LOL FACTS ARE : Mayweather threw less punches with a higher punch/land ratio. LANDED the Clean clear shots. And thats why Mayweather won. MAIDANA LOST WITH ALL HIS DIRTY TACTICS, AND HE WAS CAUGHT TRYING TO USE GLOVES WITH NO PADDING, TO GIVE MORE DAMAGE TO HIS ADVANTAGE. LAME!
It don't matter where he landed the punches the point is he did while nigga Floyd had to keep bringing the ref over to get Maidana off she hews the one hugging him to not get his ass beat by Chino Maidana!
@@Cheatrrr I love how this whole Jake Paul and Floyd Mayweather thing got people looking up Floyd's old videos Floyd really has real estate in people's heads lol
@@Cheatrrr what's more funny is the second floyd gets himself into any type of drama people start commenting on his old videos like you LOL fu(king stupid
Floyd said cotto is the hardest puncher he ever fought and i agree with that. To this, maybe he also imagine the strength of pacman's punch if ever he go for the their fight. I think that's one of the reasons.
What people don't seem to understand about scoring a fight is that punch stats reset every single round. No matter how you saw the fight, the TOTAL stats don't mean shit. It's round by rounds stats that matter. This is the huge difference between both fighters in this fight; the rounds Miadana won, Maidana simply won (except round 1 and 5 was dominated); the rounds Mayweather won, Mayweather dominated. That being said, Maidana won more rounds, statistically speaking. My personal opinion is Maidana won rounds 1-6, and round 8. Mayweather dominated rounds 7, 9, 10, 11 and 12. 7-5 for Maidana.
Exactly what paulie said after the fight. The shots Maidana landed were not perfect like Floyd's were but when a fighter is being out punched round by round but landing just about the same, the more aggressive/active fighter wins that round.
I was waiting all night for that press conference, lol. Good stuff. I'm surprise they let both boxers are the stage like that. That's dangerous lol. Congrats to Mayweather on his victory though. Maidana did a great job as well.
Based on body shots landed and dominance (which the judges didn't care about) instead of a mere 1-2 landed shots on face/head, I gave 7-5 rounds for Maidana. Again it was a close fight, Maidana's only chance to win is a KO or a couple of KDs over Floyd. One judge scored it 114-114 which was about fairly right and the best score that Floyd should have gotten. Watch it again in replay and ask yourself 'Who put on a show that entertained you well?' Answer it honestly without bias (forget about the punchers gloves thing and idolizing). Maidana should fight Pacquiao next if Floyd does not allow Maidana to use his blue custom punchers gloves in a rematch. He probably will make over $3M compared to a shameful $1.5M from Mayweather. Showtime commentators suck as they often misled the viewers to justify that Floyd was winning the rounds.
I got mayweather winning . I watch the whole fight in slow motion and sad to say lots of punches was missing . Many hit ...many just hit the top of his head . I don't know how to count them . But he was missing and Floyd was accurate . As far as entertained ... Explain to me what was entertaining to you ? I enjoy watching boxing ... I enjoyed each boxer for the difference they bring to boxing . Mayweather is great and he breaks fighters down . I like that . Sometimes a knockout isn't what I want to see . Boxing isn't about knockout is about out boxing .
Shawn Carter Floyd's fight against Canelo was entertaining b/c he dominated Canelo in most rounds and made him felt frustrated. At Maidana's fight Floyd was not dominant and not agressive enough except in 3-5 rounds the most, and Maidana made him felt frustrated at times.
Shawn Carter hits to the back of the head are rabbit punches, which aren't even suppose to be done lol. Maidana got away with alot of dirty stuff, but all in all it was a good close fight. I can say Flody won after watching the fight about 4 times.
A good fight.. entertaining..this by far is the most i enjoyed in a Floyd fight. Congrats to him and Chino for keeping the pressure and the fight exciting.
Even though I hate Floyd I think he won this fight by one point. Gotta give Floyd props for winning this fight because Maidana had 15-17 pound advantage over Floyd on fight night.
Strange to hear Floyd complaining about Tony Weeks. Tony was trying to pull Floyd off Chino all night. Saved him on many occasions. He should be thanking Tony for constantly breaking it up when he was getting thumped on the ropes.
I'm impressed watching Floyd showing so much respect to Maidana. He never trash talked before and after the fight. Mayweather earned the victory and Maidana had to fought dirty because he had to, actually that's the only way he could get the lucky shot. It's like trying to fist fight Bruce Lee you know you won't beat him so you have to fight dirty hit him with a bat or something lol.
' was once 'B' side - Is now 'A' side. He has paid the cost to be the Boss. HARD WORK! - DEDICATION!!! I really like this Businessman/Champion. I think it is just so Classy that he acknowledges [not only] HIS Team, but the rigidness of his opponent, his opponent's family, the other fighters, etc.. It'll be a sad & Happy occasion when he hangs up his gloves for the final time, but it will be Great to see him in his Boxing Promoter 'life after boxing'. Favorite Floyd Line: "PYP" -- LmBo!!
everyone can have his own idea...i think Floyd is too much for maidana...he is a braveheart but mayweather clearly won....clear punches and great defensive skill...how many times maydana really hits Mayweather? (sorry for my bad english)
Fighthup, thanks so much for sharing this video with us and having the full clip on deck! Maidana came in with a 17 pound weight advantage and still couldn't knock out the champ! Shout - out to Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr., for giving us a great fight! #asidecuz
Idk, but folks need to look at that and if the rematch happens Floyd will kick his ass next time, their was other openings and opportunities in the fight. I feel more combinations should have been thrown by Floyd.
He gave you brawler fans what ya'll wanted to see. He didn't "dominate" him because people would say he "ran" the whole fight and didn't fight like a a man. Real boxing fans know, its called "stick and move," not running. Mayweather could've easily beat this MMA fighter but he wanted to make it exciting. Thats why he kept leaning on the ropes letting Maidana throw flurries giving the illusion that it was a tough fight. Floyd couldve easily stayed in the middle of the ring and countered him to death, but that would be boring right?
I am always entertained when Floyd can hit with out being hit by using his slick skill. With that being said, He missed Maidana more than he has ever missed any other fighter and he was hit more times in the fight than any other fight before. He preaches about how his health and counting his money is important and then he so called gives fans (what they want to see) a brawl with one of the hardest punchers in the class for the sake of entertaining them. That my friend, is a logical contradiction. Maidana's rugged pressure was simply effective early on. Floyd adjusted but those body shots and over hands did some damage. If they rematch and Floyd does not win at least 9 rounds, your thesis is complete bullshit. You could see he was disappointed in himself after this fight. He was disappointed in himself after the fight with Cotto. He used the same excuse with Cotto too. If it is your intention to fight this way, you shouldn't be disappointed about it, this leads me to believe he is full of shit.
A guy fight One way his damn near his whole career 46 0 and all of a sudden he is forced to fight a certain way????Na dog you got it twisted Devon Henry. I guess um Mosely forced him to fight and cot to and hat ton too. Stop looking for excuses why he is the best . He just is.. when he retires you will miss him cause there is no other in the sport like him. I feel your Pain. I am a ny Knick fan and couldn't stand MJ but had to respect him cause he was the best
I love how Floyd still fucks with people who try to out hustle him mentally...Floyd is a very tough customer especially mentally...way more than people give him credit for...he faces adversity in and out the ring like not many people can consistently do..."Yeah yeah you've never fought before."
Bottom line if you want to beat Mayweather you half to KO him otherwise your gonna lose every time when it comes to point battles. He's just to damn smart in that department.
If mayweather picks Maidana rematch, people will complain that Mayweather didn't pick Pac, Bradley,Canelo, Lara or Khan. If Mayweather picks Pacqui and beats his ass, people will complain that mayweather didn't take more sufficient punching machine Maidana. If Mayweather picks Canelo or Lara, people will complain that Mayweather didn't pick anybody else, I MEAN COME ON! Mayweather is 37, he plans to leave the boxing game in great shape and unbeaten, not old ragady ass and beaten! He won't live 300 years. If Mayweather lived 300 years he would fight every man on the planet capable to reach the elite level in boxing and paper view and have 50 rematches but he only has 2 fights left. TWO! So his options for his future opponents are limited, deal with it! Mayweather has owned since 1996, 18 years, he has 2 fights left, so don't get over the board with this crap about who 'he needs to fight'. Mayweather is number one.
"If Mayweather picks Pacqui and beats his ass, people will complain that mayweather didn't take more sufficient punching machine Maidana." what? wait...
jeff de leon just saying that people would bring it up as another excuse to hate on him, then they would say that cotto would have been stronger, and jadi jadi jada, it's always like that and you know it! Some are saying that pacman isn't the puncher that defined him few years back so I threw it out there.
There is so much we don't know about. A combination of issues to address which is why no one ever wins these arguments or discussions. Both made good points.
How can you hate Mayweather after this fight, honestly it was very close and could have went either way, but you could see that he struggled during the beginning and outboxed him in the later rounds. The adjustments he made won him the fight. And he's right when he says that the fans got bored of seeing him dominate with his defense. This fight showed that he isn't all defense and that he is a true champion.
Let this be clear..manny is no longer in the discussion. As for this fight, i dont understand how everyone is saying maidana got ripped. Throwing a bunch of punches hitting nothing but air wont win a fight. He was aggressive for sure but didn't land shit. Floyd picked him apart and landed. 37 years old dodging young bucks like he seeing them in slow motion. Ridiculous
***** it wins rounds and the more rounds you win wins the fight. Mayweather lost all first five and the last round. 1 or two clean punches over 20 or more to the body doesn't win a round
Maidana threw more than double the punches floyd threw but still got outlanded. I'm pretty sure that had something to do with it. Either way Maidana was to inconsistent. He burned himself out towards the end.
***** it doesn't matter if he got outlanded through the fight at the end. What matter is who won more rounds by connecting more. It was maidana who put the pressure and had floyd at the ropes the whole time. Floyd didn't win any of the first 5 and definitely he didn't win the last one. He bitched through the whole fight and he made him change maidanas gloves. If he really was the best ever he Wud of dominated the whole fight just like Alexander did and Wud of let him use whatever gloves. What a joke
xjbrroo He won the first five and the last, Obviously the glove change didn't put him at a disadvantage. Floyd won the other 6 rounds. He won the match because his technique was more fluid than maidanas.
Floyds the only boxer who makes adjustments during the fight ! Most stick with a plan whether it's working or not , after the 2 be round Shane Mosley was stuck , same with zab , Vic Ortiz , etc , they never have a plan B .
Not excuses brah. Mayweather did exactly what he said he was gonna do and that was "fight differently and give the fans what they want to see". In rematch Floyd outboxes him EASILY. Just watch.
TheeDevilWearsPrada Mayweather said earlier in the week that he wouldn't work with Golden Boy if Schaefer was not running the company. He also said the door was open for Schaefer to work with his company, Mayweather Promotions, if he left Golden Boy. oscar wants to come back his the face of his promotions no rematch.
No, Maidana and Garcia are con artists. Maidana had to swing over 800 times and still couldn't hit Floyd. He was head butting, wrestling, low blowing and pushing.
Maidana gave the illusion of a what yall call "ass whooping" bc he threw a lot of punches in witch only %25 landed Mayweather kept composure and adapted to the situation out boxing and outclassing this dirty tough fighter
That whole, I fought for the fans is a bunch of bullshyt. Maidana went in there and fought the type of fight he needed to fight in order to have a chance at winning. It would have been a mistake for Maidana to go in there and try to box Maywheather because he would have gotten abused. The best thing to do is to fight a rough fight, which is what he did. Maywheather didnt fight like this for the fans, he was forced into this type of fight by Maidana. In the end, Floyd did win. It was the best chance i seen of a boxer beating Floyd, but Maidana came up a little short.
I definitely have to agree with your assessment. Floyd said the same thing after the Cotto fight but as you stated, he was forced to fight this way which speaks volumes about how versatile he is as a fighter. Very tough!
Forced or not forced he still adapted to the style . And got the win . He doesn't fight like that because Floyd is a natural boxer . Maidana really is a street fight hint the gloves . Yes he's correct he brings the fight you want . Because he can adapt and get him out of the style and return him to Floyd style that might be boring for you .
Shawn Carter Sure. Im not taking anything away from Maywheather and agree that he is the best boxer at the moment. Even though i want him to get knocked the fugg out! There is something about his cocky personality that i cant stand, but he still is good.
I had Floyd easy win 11-1, 10-2 at worst... a few close rounds but excellent effort by Floyd to adjust to this southpaw after the 1st round... Great effort from Maidana! no rematch needed.. next
Lol at the crying and the excuse making. Floyd said before the fight that he was going to do something different. He clearly did something different in the first 5 rounds, where 3 of them he clearly was getting his ass beat, but then decided he wasn't going to win by going off his game plan. He adjusted and went back to his style of fighting and dominated. Okay, Floyd still landed more and threw fewer those first 5 rounds, so who won those, is all subjective. If they fight again, I guarantee, Floyd will fight his normal fight. THIS IS BOXING. If you guys want to see a brawl, there's MMA. The object is to inflict the most damage while getting hit the least. It's not a slug fest, though many fans like that style of fighting. Sluggers end up punch drunk when they retire, and can't comfortably spend their money. Look at Ali.
I agree this is boxing. We are paying to watch boxing. If you know what you watching you appreciate Floyd. There is nothing or nobody like him. If you're skill level isn't there than you get you're asse beat by fighters like Maidana like Broner, but yes! this is boxing!
TheAlienilluminati it is a fight tho. Even boxer loose to brawlers u dint have to always box to win. Just Cuz he landed a few clean shots over 20 to the body that he was getting did not win any of the first 5 or 12 round
xjbrroo I agree, boxers can lose to brawlers, but the fact is, Floyd hasn't. The 12th round we will disagree on. The first 5, yes, he lost, but I tend to believe him when he said he was just putting on a show. Regardless, Floyd won everything after 5. Even if you give the 12th to Maidana, it's possible that 2 of the first 5 rounds could have gone either way. I gave those 2 close rounds to Maidana for the sake of argument. But Floyd won the fight either way.
I am not sure Maidana can box. One can clearly see that he came in for a kill, not to box. Meaning, once his next opponent isn't going to be called Mayweather he would probably be lost in that fight...
I rooted for maidana but after hearing floyd at this interview. He is a humbold dude and did make sense. He knows where he came from and does what he has to do.
Well now it makes sense. When I was watching the fight I was yelling at my boys asking why is Floyd CONSTANTLY baiting maidana to the ropes??!!?? It was because he was going to show the world that he could go toe to toe with a knock out artist and still pull away with the win. Floyd is a beast!! And he was 14 to 15 pounds lighter than his opponent that's a knock out artist!!!! Finesse prevails brawling!!!!!!!!!!
The most amazing thing to me is that Mayweather doesn't lie. He tells you all to your faces exactly what his intentions were and what he's doing, and you still all get duped. He did what he had to do to sell this fight. He even tells you how overrated he's aware his opponent was, and how he used that to his advantage through the help of the media. He admits, as I've been saying, that Cotto and Canelo, are better fighters and harder hitters. And what do you all do. You take it as denial and sell yourselves into a rematch, where exactly what Mayweather says will happen. Then you all cry months down the line about mismatch long after it happens and could have been avoided. It's like watching someone tell you they're going to rob you, then doing it. I'm not going to sympathize with stupidity like that.
I'm pretty much done with these fights and the whole Mayweather thing ... Anybody that knows a lil bout this sport and it's history know that calling this guy THE BEST EVER is just insane. Thanks Chino u put on a show last night and I can't wait to see u fighting again, with a real fighter thou cuz honestly watching sumbody running from his opponent for 12 rounds ain't even entertaining anymore.
Floyd is a counter puncher. So naturally he backs away in the ring in order to set up his best shots. Why is Floyd "running away" but guys like Juan Manuel Marquez are greats and they're the same type of fighters.
Well I don't like it, I recognize his talent but I see that his fights are always surrounded by a lot of bullshit like the thing with the gloves n shit so I don't love him I don't hate him, I can give two fucks bout his race or his money or whatever cuz it's bout boxing so in my opinion he's not the best ever I've seen better champions I could write a list ...
@@saveyoursoul9067 well when you're the best and on top of the list and a person who doesn't let ppl define them of course all of them want to take your head off and take your spot so him thinking about his children and family taking the gloves what you call "bullshit" serious is the smartest thing he could've did cause at first he wasn't aware or curious about it, it was Lenard who brought that "Maidana unpadded gloves" to his attention and he Took it serious like any boxer would y'all see what happens to alot of boxers
k. calm down brother but there was a back room deal about the gloves where the maidana camp complained about look it up and let me know what was the controversy about? bigger gloves? or what?
***** True the system can be unfair. My point is that Floyd's character isn't anywhere near Ali's. It's easy to disrespect the man's character since he is not the most humble person to say the least. Ali's accusation and circumstance is respectable, but I can't say the same about Floyd. Guilty or not, the fact he was even accused of that does not surprise me. I respect the skill, but I do not respect the man.
I have had plenty of criticism for Mayweather in the past, but I also believe in being fair and giving credit where it is due. In this particular case I admired how he stood in there and engaged, and I also agree with nearly everything he said about the fight afterward. Both inside the ring and out, one of Floyd's best nights, IMO.
This guy in nearly 40 and still unifying weight divisions. When Flyd fought Shane Mosley, Shane was 38 and people were calling Shane old although he had just ko'd Margarito. Floyd is 37 going on 38 and he has a competitive fight and ppl are jumping all over him. Its a testament to how great Floyd is. These haters give him his props without even knowing they are doing it.
LOL funny how you mention Margarito when you're are trying to talk about how great Floyd is.
@@youngturk5087he mentioned Margarito alright. Margarito getting stopped by Shane Mosely.
I still find it pretty amazing that Floyd is competing in a high level at nearly 38 year old. Robert Garcia is the same age as Mayweather and he was done quick as fighter, now he is a trainer.
Threw out Mayweathers career weve seen how Floyd has beaten boxers that have a 20 pound advantage. Its basically like a handicap boxing match. Mayweather fights them all weighing only 146-148. MAIDANA in this case weighed 165 pounds and Canelo weighed 166 on fight night. Imagine Maidana fighting at the same weight mayweather did 148. He would have no power weighing 147 flat or even 150.
Mayweather and maidanna weight difference was 1 1/2lbs.
Hug for half the fight and you can extend your career.
116-112 for Floyd Mayweather. Marcos Maidana basically won the first half of the fight. Floyd made adjustments, accurate counter punching, hard body shots, ring generalship. However Maidana still made it a physical fight down the stretch but began missing way to many punches didn't do enough to win but great fight.
floyd laught at 8:10 after he got diss..(priceless)
Mayweather won the fight, he said before the fight that he was going to stand and fight Maidana and make it exciting and that is exactly what happened, be it on purpose or because the relentless pressure Maidana applied gave "Money" no choice. Kudos to Maidana for giving such a tough fight but Mayweather scored clean and effective punches. He was more accurate.
U dont know shit about boxing. The few clean shots floyd landed wasn't enough to win the fight.
jdvicvega0 lol no bruh u dont know shit about boxing, i box and and im telling u u dont know shit about boxiing, slopping brawling and throwing 800 punches and landing 23% of them isnt going to win u a fight. Boxing is a art of fighting.
jdvicvega0 lmao what do you mean? Did you even watch the fight? Oh boy...
Mayweather was not the catalyst of that fight being exciting at all! Maidana chased him round the ring floyd is so fucking boring id rather watch paint dry. He's like the chelsea FC of boxing gets results but in such a dull manner its unreal.
in the interview mayweather was gasping and maidana eating a cookie
Maidana could not hit Mayweather. Why do people overlook this? You can't win if you are not landing punches.
*****
That was out of 800 punches dude. Mayweather threw half as many and landed the ones that mattered.
***** percentages don't mean shit. You can throw 10 punches and land 6 and that's 60% and the opponent can throw 100 punches and land 40 and that's only 40% but who's the real winner here?
Carlos Colmenares You are right Carlos, but Mayweather did only throw 6 punches. He threw almost has many as Maidana, and landed more... So you statement does really hold water. Arm punches don't win a boxing match...
Carlos Colmenares percentage wouldn't mean shit if that was the case but the fact that he still landed more punches than maidana is what makes percentage count! like you said "you can throw 10 punches & land 6 and thats 60%" BUT if you throw 100 but land less than the other guys 6. YOU AINT SHIT!
I think its funny how people talk about a sport and someone decides to start name calling. I can guarantee you WOULD NOT say any of that face to face. You internet tuff guys make me laugh. Keep it to the topic. If you want to make it personal, come on down to my gym and we can deal with it man to man instead of the net.
Seriously, you have to give Maidana credit... He's the best wrestler in boxing... Lol
It's called rough housing, and it worked from rounds 1-5
No brother, el mejor es Tyson, ese wey hasta mocha las orejas...
Lol good one. O o and and the best at hitting hitting Floyd every where buy his face ha
***** T.B.E
O so u the one she said she use the strap on wit
Floyd was str8 owning these fools lmao
THANK YOU AND PROPS FOR POSTING THE ENTIRE VIDEO AND NOT CUTTING IT UP INTO 2 MINUTE PIECES LIKE fight hype...!!!
Mayweather put a positive stamp on his legacy with this win. If as a fighter he never faces adversity. We'd always wonder how he would handle it. Great fight and I can't wait for the rematch. Best defensive fighter in history.
This post fighf press conf was more of a TMT CONGREGATION
Floyd Mayweather: 47-0 Enough Said.
Do you remember the fight against Castillo?. Are you sure he was Unbeatten?. Too many explanations to justify a victory. McFloyd said something rel ""I always find a way to win"....he forgot to menthion...."I asked daddy to pay the bill....I bought a couple of scorecards""....I repeat ... too many explanations to justify a tied fight...were he lost every round until the end of 5th round. Then...there were many tied rounds, and 3 cleanly won by Mayweather. There is no chance to justify 2 points in difference in both cases. in the worst case .... Assuming McFloyd as winner ... there is no chance to justify one of the judges. Daddy paid the bill....thats it.
ya'll just love to hate Mayweather... i swear its pathetic, i'm a fighter my self and i saw greatness in how he kept his composure and made the necessary adjustments and turned the fight around, you guys are too busy hating its killing the sport, "AS HE SAID BEFORE" this guy dedicated his life to the sport and is 37 fucking years old, and just fought a fucking relentless beast in maidana, and maidana had to make it dirty and rough but still couldn't get the W, IN THE JUDGES FUCKING OPINION, NOT YOURS
You said a mouth full it was obvious that Floyd laid on the ropes for maidana and still did capitalize on it he smothered must of his own punches and fought dirty try push someone out the round hitting with low blows and then tried to knee Floyd in the he but the haters are talking about that bs....hmmmmmm
22:20 robert garcia is just thinking about the fat payday again lol
Maidana didn't even hurt mayweather. It looked like he was throwing punches hoping one hay maker would land. Yet once again mayweathers defense held up very well. You could tell Maidana was getting tired by the later rounds and may took advantage and became more offensive. The way I see it, Maidana had nothing to lose. May picked his shots and did the whole "rope a dope" on Maidana. Overall it was a very good fight. Give Maidana credit for going out there and throwing down. Unlike Canelo who didn't put up much of a fight.
"I came in at 148 he came in at 165"
Had it 7-5 for maidana wish it was more decisive though soo maidana could walk away with the W he deserves it
I thought he won too.
@@enriqueg1987 I could see the argument for a draw but not a Maidana win
You don't know s"it about boxing if you are nice to maidan a and give him a extra round draw is the best he might get
Mayweather won 0 rounds after round 5 he missed so many shots ineffective agression and cheat low blows and tackles
@@jacobzarkin5174 lol
For the first time Floyd looks like he got the worst of the fight.
im not even a boxing fan but i never hate, i bet boxing fans hate the fighters/sport more than non boxing fans. i loved this fight, it was great!
I think non-boxing fans hate more because they don't understand what they are looking at when watching a fight but still try to voice their opinion as fact. Most people think that when a guy land a punch on the arms, gloves, or back that they count.
"Floyd did not fight like the man I expected him to," Maidana added, according to Showtime. "He made me change the gloves. I had bigger gloves and everything and I still gave him a fight." --Maidana--
thanks for the full upload, im sick of seein them short videos
That guy in the crowd from Argentina is mad because Maidana lost. Just accept the fact that he lost. It's funny how Floyd called him out though. And he was right. lol
Of course Argentinians will be behind Maidana. It's not hard for a idiot like Mayweather to know that. Just like Blacks for Mayweather!!
*****
It's not about color ***** people like who they like no matter where they're from. That guy was just upset. Floyd went through that boxing glove situation with Oscar and he didn't complain at all. People will find an excuse for anything when they don't win.
Oscar situation was different, it was not a day before the fight that Oscar made Floyd change gloves. Plus lots of people hate floyd not because he is black but he is a racist, woman beater and a cheating hit run hold repeat fighter.
Emanuel Pacquiao How was the situation different with Oscar? It doesn't matter if it was a week or an hour before the fight. The fact is Oscar was the top fighter at the time and Floyd had to adhere to Oscar's request. Now Floyd is the top fighter. He has the say so over a lot in HIS fights. That includes drug testing, gloves, and everything else that he has power over. Fabian didn't say anything about people hating Floyd. He said that black people support Floyd simply because he's black and that's not true. That's why I said people like who they like. You're not on the subject we're on.
shyshotcaller27 People can be cheated of thier goals and Maidana was cheated because he kicked that ass!
Thanks for posting the full press conference instead of chopping it up.
Floyd before the first fight with maidana : “ I’m going to give y’all a different fight”
Floyd after the first maidana fight
“ if we fight again in September, am I going to fight the same fight absolutely not!”
Floyd years before the manny fight
“And after I beat manny they are gonna say I was too big for pacquio it or this and that”
Floyd after the manny fight
“ excuses excuses excuses “
At least he was being honest.
Even though Mayweather always comes out as cocky the dude is humble and a hell of a fighter..
I watch the fight 3 times now.. And floyd did win the fight.. Maidana did give him some problems on the ropes, and score some points here and there, I'm not saying floyd won it easy.. Even do it was a rough fight at times .. and floyd never really adapt as easy as he's use to in the past vs any style.
But i have floyd floyd winning 7-5..But Did maidana make it interesting and will a rematch in september be deserving..?? Absolutely YES...
i will like for them to do it again.. It will be a much better fight than watching floyd Vs Amir Holding Khan....
Comical wake up yea gobshite
Fighthub, you guys are AWESOME!!! Thanks so much.
This conference was hilarious coz of the Language Barrier, Cavron!
A true champion not afraid to take a risk, not afraid to be knockdown or lose to the fight not like what he is always doing..! fighting for surviving of legacy.!!!
Tonywestspeaks!
FLOYD MAYWEATHER PUTS HIS "PREFECT RECORD" ON THE LINE AND GOES "TOE" TO "TOE" WITH "CHINO" MAIDANA AND "DOMINATES" HIM IN A "SLUG FEST" THAT WAS WORTH EVERY PENNY!
Floyd goes toe to toe with "Chino" Maidana who is a "brawler" type of "pressure" fighter who style is to come forward while throwing "unrelentless" overhand head shots from awkward angles.
This fight was a PPV treat for the "real" boxing fan enthusiast who likes a good brawl with non-stop action from the opening bell to the closing bell.
This fight with "Chino" Maidana was more "competitive" than the Castillo 1 & 2 fights and was on the same level as the Cotto fight "except" for a few "dirty" tactics from Chino that escape the referee attention.
This fight was "down" played by a few sport fans and Manny Pacquaio supports who wrote the fight off from the very beginning.
The fact of reality is that every "real" boxing fan enthusiast, sports writer and analysis knew it was going to be a tought "competitive" fight for Floyd because of "Chino" Maidana "unrelentless" fighting style that would give Floyd Mayweather some "serious" problems even though they picked Floyd to win.
The "ONLY" ones that are waking up this morning and saying that they are so "shocked" and never thought this fight would be so "competitive" are the "bias" and mostly "hating" supporters of Manny Pacquaio that would NEVER give Mr Mayweather his due credit anyway because they are basically "envious" and "brainless" sport fans who "don't know SHIT about boxing" to begin with... Or the business side thereof.
I thought Chino Maidana did exactly what he was supposed to do eventhough It took Mr Mayweather just a little bit longer to make the "adjustment" to Maidana.
People who are "delusional" and "illogical" because of their personal "hatred" towards Mr Mayweather don't realize that those "sick" adjustments that Mr Mayweather can make inside the ring during a fight is "exactly" what makes Mr Mayweather so great.
If that's the reason why these "groupie" part-time "bias" boxing fans and personal "haters" of Mr Mayweather are yelling Floyd looked like he might have lost a step or two and yada, yada, yada...
Well... to be honest with you... That's expected from these "haters" and I am not at least one bit surprised!
At the end of the day... Mr Mayweather still got the "W" and that's all that matters.
FMJ... Now..."46“-0-0 & Still counting... TBE... PERIOD! :)
How does one judge score the fight 114/114 and another 117/111?Boxing is bullshit.
that's the purpose of having several judges to round it off.
But you still gon watch the next fight
Mista Frisco Yeah,on a free live stream.Like I did this one.
Cool..Come back and cry in sept
Boxing is not.... but judges are.
Floyd Mayweather is a beast, this dude is the real deal. Name another fighter with the capacity to adjust in the ring like this guy... Round six and on the fight was different, Alot different. Fans and people alike hype maidanas punches, he was wild and dirty and was trying to use some Muay Thai techniques with those knees lol.. Jk, but Floyd is a great fighter.
Mayweather not just a fighter he’s a business magnet in the boxing industry. Something no other boxer has done.
TBE! When it comes to Floyd fighting Manny Pacquiao, that stands for Two Balls Empty!
Fights like the two fights Mayweather and Maidana fought, provide learning experiences for the fighters coming up! I love watching both fights, seeing how Mayweather handled himself and, Maidana!
@ Maidana Fans : he landed punches on mayweathers arms, elbows and back shoulders. And he definately landed bunches of punches on back of mayweathers "HEAD" which is not legal. Maidana low blowed Mayweather 2 times on purpose, tried to hit mayweather with his Knee, and even tackeled Mayweather to the ground like if it was wrestling/MMA.
Clearly Maidana was a dirty fighter, yet the dumb casual fans say Maidana won LOL
FACTS ARE : Mayweather threw less punches with a higher punch/land ratio. LANDED the Clean clear shots. And thats why Mayweather won.
MAIDANA LOST WITH ALL HIS DIRTY TACTICS, AND HE WAS CAUGHT TRYING TO USE GLOVES WITH NO PADDING, TO GIVE MORE DAMAGE TO HIS ADVANTAGE. LAME!
Thank you
***** it doesn't matter if you score round by round floyd didn't do shit on the first 5
It don't matter where he landed the punches the point is he did while nigga Floyd had to keep bringing the ref over to get Maidana off she hews the one hugging him to not get his ass beat by Chino Maidana!
I like that Bernard Hopkins is always nearby at these.....Hoping to feel special
Floyd won i love how mad some people are lol
Maidana beat Floyds ass. Judges saved him

@@milkbutter117 Nobody gives a fuck about Floyd bro look at his damn FACE 😂😂😂😂 he hiding his face cuz it’s damaged tf up 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Was never really a mayweather fan but I got respect for him now for being so humble
THERE'S ONLY ONE MAYWEATHER
Floyd was smokin people off the ring as well LMAO none was safe xD
Let chino use his Gloves. They were approved. Floyd was scared. He admitted. Chino was using pillow Gloves. No wonder canelo and cotto hit harder.
Floyd said cotto is the hardest puncher he ever fought and i agree with that. To this, maybe he also imagine the strength of pacman's punch if ever he go for the their fight. I think that's one of the reasons.
What people don't seem to understand about scoring a fight is that punch stats reset every single round. No matter how you saw the fight, the TOTAL stats don't mean shit. It's round by rounds stats that matter. This is the huge difference between both fighters in this fight; the rounds Miadana won, Maidana simply won (except round 1 and 5 was dominated); the rounds Mayweather won, Mayweather dominated. That being said, Maidana won more rounds, statistically speaking. My personal opinion is Maidana won rounds 1-6, and round 8. Mayweather dominated rounds 7, 9, 10, 11 and 12.
7-5 for Maidana.
Exactly what paulie said after the fight. The shots Maidana landed were not perfect like Floyd's were but when a fighter is being out punched round by round but landing just about the same, the more aggressive/active fighter wins that round.
I was waiting all night for that press conference, lol. Good stuff. I'm surprise they let both boxers are the stage like that. That's dangerous lol. Congrats to Mayweather on his victory though. Maidana did a great job as well.
Based on body shots landed and dominance (which the judges didn't care about) instead of a mere 1-2 landed shots on face/head, I gave 7-5 rounds for Maidana. Again it was a close fight, Maidana's only chance to win is a KO or a couple of KDs over Floyd. One judge scored it 114-114 which was about fairly right and the best score that Floyd should have gotten.
Watch it again in replay and ask yourself 'Who put on a show that entertained you well?' Answer it honestly without bias (forget about the punchers gloves thing and idolizing).
Maidana should fight Pacquiao next if Floyd does not allow Maidana to use his blue custom punchers gloves in a rematch. He probably will make over $3M compared to a shameful $1.5M from Mayweather.
Showtime commentators suck as they often misled the viewers to justify that Floyd was winning the rounds.
Yeah...It was draw or one rd either way. I had 115-113 May...but draw or Maidana by a point would be totally acceptable.
I got mayweather winning . I watch the whole fight in slow motion and sad to say lots of punches was missing . Many hit ...many just hit the top of his head . I don't know how to count them . But he was missing and Floyd was accurate . As far as entertained ... Explain to me what was entertaining to you ? I enjoy watching boxing ... I enjoyed each boxer for the difference they bring to boxing . Mayweather is great and he breaks fighters down . I like that . Sometimes a knockout isn't what I want to see . Boxing isn't about knockout is about out boxing .
Shawn Carter Floyd's fight against Canelo was entertaining b/c he dominated Canelo in most rounds and made him felt frustrated. At Maidana's fight Floyd was not dominant and not agressive enough except in 3-5 rounds the most, and Maidana made him felt frustrated at times.
Shawn Carter hits to the back of the head are rabbit punches, which aren't even suppose to be done lol. Maidana got away with alot of dirty stuff, but all in all it was a good close fight. I can say Flody won after watching the fight about 4 times.
tru lyfe very true
A good fight.. entertaining..this by far is the most i enjoyed in a Floyd fight. Congrats to him and Chino for keeping the pressure and the fight exciting.
Even though I hate Floyd I think he won this fight by one point. Gotta give Floyd props for winning this fight because Maidana had 15-17 pound advantage over Floyd on fight night.
Wow Floyd back tracked on making a fight in the same sentence that must be a record even for him
Floyd on fighting Pacquiao and Maidana rematch:
Pac: Need random blood testing and leave bob arum
Maidana: Need random glove testing
Chrono Cross well floyd beat maidana in a rematch then he beat pacquiao right after lol
Strange to hear Floyd complaining about Tony Weeks. Tony was trying to pull Floyd off Chino all night. Saved him on many occasions. He should be thanking Tony for constantly breaking it up when he was getting thumped on the ropes.
lmaoo Floyd owned in the ring and owned in the press conference
not sure about the first part, he was trying hard at the press and the people that he did.
LOVED THE WAY FLOYD AJUSTED TO THE SITUATION. HE IS AN EXCEPTIONAL FIGHTER.
haha funny
I'm impressed watching Floyd showing so much respect to Maidana. He never trash talked before and after the fight. Mayweather earned the victory and Maidana had to fought dirty because he had to, actually that's the only way he could get the lucky shot. It's like trying to fist fight Bruce Lee you know you won't beat him so you have to fight dirty hit him with a bat or something lol.
' was once 'B' side - Is now 'A' side. He has paid the cost to be the Boss.
HARD WORK! - DEDICATION!!!
I really like this Businessman/Champion. I think it is just so Classy that he acknowledges [not only] HIS Team, but the rigidness of his opponent, his opponent's family, the other fighters, etc..
It'll be a sad & Happy occasion when he hangs up his gloves for the final time, but it will be Great to see him in his Boxing Promoter 'life after boxing'.
Favorite Floyd Line: "PYP" -- LmBo!!
Maidana's face is so clean wtf?
everyone can have his own idea...i think Floyd is too much for maidana...he is a braveheart but mayweather clearly won....clear punches and great defensive skill...how many times maydana really hits Mayweather? (sorry for my bad english)
8:08 Lmfaoo Chino killed him
Well he sure as fuck looks good for a dead man!
Fighthup, thanks so much for sharing this video with us and having the full clip on deck! Maidana came in with a 17 pound weight advantage and still couldn't knock out the champ! Shout - out to Floyd "Money" Mayweather Jr., for giving us a great fight!
#asidecuz
so floyd came in at 148 and maidona came in at 162 14 pounds heavier and still lost and people still talk shit damn .
I feel bruh no one is looking at that.
made me wonder if these fools thought this was the fucking MMA.
Idk, but folks need to look at that and if the rematch happens Floyd will kick his ass next time, their was other openings and opportunities in the fight. I feel more combinations should have been thrown by Floyd.
Maidana weighed 165
the h8 is real... niqqas act like floyd the first fighter to talk shit and flaunt his money... smh
"When u get to this level u have to adjust"... n thats basically wat happened #TMT
I don't buy that statement , "I'm giving the fans what they want to see" bullshit. He was forced into a dog fight.
He was forced to grab Maidana's hand when Maidana was still destructive. He even escaped the dog fight.
you bought it..for 70 bucks, hater
He gave you brawler fans what ya'll wanted to see. He didn't "dominate" him because people would say he "ran" the whole fight and didn't fight like a a man. Real boxing fans know, its called "stick and move," not running. Mayweather could've easily beat this MMA fighter but he wanted to make it exciting. Thats why he kept leaning on the ropes letting Maidana throw flurries giving the illusion that it was a tough fight. Floyd couldve easily stayed in the middle of the ring and countered him to death, but that would be boring right?
I am always entertained when Floyd can hit with out being hit by using his slick skill. With that being said, He missed Maidana more than he has ever missed any other fighter and he was hit more times in the fight than any other fight before. He preaches about how his health and counting his money is important and then he so called gives fans (what they want to see) a brawl with one of the hardest punchers in the class for the sake of entertaining them. That my friend, is a logical contradiction. Maidana's rugged pressure was simply effective early on. Floyd adjusted but those body shots and over hands did some damage. If they rematch and Floyd does not win at least 9 rounds, your thesis is complete bullshit. You could see he was disappointed in himself after this fight. He was disappointed in himself after the fight with Cotto. He used the same excuse with Cotto too. If it is your intention to fight this way, you shouldn't be disappointed about it, this leads me to believe he is full of shit.
A guy fight One way his damn near his whole career 46 0 and all of a sudden he is forced to fight a certain way????Na dog you got it twisted Devon Henry. I guess um Mosely forced him to fight and cot to and hat ton too. Stop looking for excuses why he is the best . He just is.. when he retires you will miss him cause there is no other in the sport like him. I feel your Pain. I am a ny Knick fan and couldn't stand MJ but had to respect him cause he was the best
Thanks Fight Hype
👍👍👍👍
"ADJUSTMENTS"...that's double talk for not being able to stand toe to toe with a younger, hard puncher.
Hardwork Dedication.
I want to see Pacquiao vs Maidana!!!!!!
pacquiao willl get his ass whooped , the man is getting old too.
Yannis Atebre LOL
No u don’t lol
I love how Floyd still fucks with people who try to out hustle him mentally...Floyd is a very tough customer especially mentally...way more than people give him credit for...he faces adversity in and out the ring like not many people can consistently do..."Yeah yeah you've never fought before."
"I always make adjustments", did he mean on the opponent's gloves, and next time not Tony Weeks but another referee?
Bottom line if you want to beat Mayweather you half to KO him otherwise your gonna lose every time when it comes to point battles. He's just to damn smart in that department.
If mayweather picks Maidana rematch, people will complain that Mayweather didn't pick Pac, Bradley,Canelo, Lara or Khan.
If Mayweather picks Pacqui and beats his ass, people will complain that mayweather didn't take more sufficient punching machine Maidana.
If Mayweather picks Canelo or Lara, people will complain that Mayweather didn't pick anybody else, I MEAN COME ON!
Mayweather is 37, he plans to leave the boxing game in great shape and unbeaten, not old ragady ass and beaten! He won't live 300 years. If Mayweather lived 300 years he would fight every man on the planet capable to reach the elite level in boxing and paper view and have 50 rematches but he only has 2 fights left. TWO! So his options for his future opponents are limited, deal with it! Mayweather has owned since 1996, 18 years, he has 2 fights left, so don't get over the board with this crap about who 'he needs to fight'.
Mayweather is number one.
"If Mayweather picks Pacqui and beats his ass, people will complain that mayweather didn't take more sufficient punching machine Maidana."
what? wait...
jeff de leon
just saying that people would bring it up as another excuse to hate on him, then they would say that cotto would have been stronger, and jadi jadi jada, it's always like that and you know it! Some are saying that pacman isn't the puncher that defined him few years back so I threw it out there.
There is so much we don't know about. A combination of issues to address which is why no one ever wins these arguments or discussions. Both made good points.
How can you hate Mayweather after this fight, honestly it was very close and could have went either way, but you could see that he struggled during the beginning and outboxed him in the later rounds. The adjustments he made won him the fight. And he's right when he says that the fans got bored of seeing him dominate with his defense. This fight showed that he isn't all defense and that he is a true champion.
Let this be clear..manny is no longer in the discussion. As for this fight, i dont understand how everyone is saying maidana got ripped. Throwing a bunch of punches hitting nothing but air wont win a fight. He was aggressive for sure but didn't land shit. Floyd picked him apart and landed. 37 years old dodging young bucks like he seeing them in slow motion. Ridiculous
I beleived Maidana deserve to win he dominate the fight he shown agreesiveness
Mayweather has landed good shot but i don't see its enough.
wild swinging and aggressiveness doesn't win fights.
***** it wins rounds and the more rounds you win wins the fight. Mayweather lost all first five and the last round. 1 or two clean punches over 20 or more to the body doesn't win a round
Maidana threw more than double the punches floyd threw but still got outlanded. I'm pretty sure that had something to do with it. Either way Maidana was to inconsistent. He burned himself out towards the end.
***** it doesn't matter if he got outlanded through the fight at the end. What matter is who won more rounds by connecting more. It was maidana who put the pressure and had floyd at the ropes the whole time. Floyd didn't win any of the first 5 and definitely he didn't win the last one. He bitched through the whole fight and he made him change maidanas gloves. If he really was the best ever he Wud of dominated the whole fight just like Alexander did and Wud of let him use whatever gloves. What a joke
xjbrroo He won the first five and the last, Obviously the glove change didn't put him at a disadvantage. Floyd won the other 6 rounds. He won the match because his technique was more fluid than maidanas.
Floyds the only boxer who makes adjustments during the fight ! Most stick with a plan whether it's working or not , after the 2 be round Shane Mosley was stuck , same with zab , Vic Ortiz , etc , they never have a plan B .
Mayweather is so full of excuses
Bitter ass white boy. Get over it.
Not excuses brah. Mayweather did exactly what he said he was gonna do and that was "fight differently and give the fans what they want to see". In rematch Floyd outboxes him EASILY. Just watch.
he won. fuck man, lots of stupid people on these videos.
TheeDevilWearsPrada Mayweather said earlier in the week that he wouldn't work with Golden Boy if Schaefer was not running the company. He also said the door was open for Schaefer to work with his company, Mayweather Promotions, if he left Golden Boy. oscar wants to come back his the face of his promotions no rematch.
No, Maidana and Garcia are con artists. Maidana had to swing over 800 times and still couldn't hit Floyd. He was head butting, wrestling, low blowing and pushing.
Maidana gave the illusion of a what yall call "ass whooping" bc he threw a lot of punches in witch only %25 landed Mayweather kept composure and adapted to the situation out boxing and outclassing this dirty tough fighter
That whole, I fought for the fans is a bunch of bullshyt. Maidana went in there and fought the type of fight he needed to fight in order to have a chance at winning. It would have been a mistake for Maidana to go in there and try to box Maywheather because he would have gotten abused. The best thing to do is to fight a rough fight, which is what he did. Maywheather didnt fight like this for the fans, he was forced into this type of fight by Maidana. In the end, Floyd did win. It was the best chance i seen of a boxer beating Floyd, but Maidana came up a little short.
I definitely have to agree with your assessment. Floyd said the same thing after the Cotto fight but as you stated, he was forced to fight this way which speaks volumes about how versatile he is as a fighter. Very tough!
Forced or not forced he still adapted to the style . And got the win . He doesn't fight like that because Floyd is a natural boxer . Maidana really is a street fight hint the gloves . Yes he's correct he brings the fight you want . Because he can adapt and get him out of the style and return him to Floyd style that might be boring for you .
Shawn Carter Sure. Im not taking anything away from Maywheather and agree that he is the best boxer at the moment. Even though i want him to get knocked the fugg out! There is something about his cocky personality that i cant stand, but he still is good.
Shawn Carter He's a slugger you moron not a street fighter.
I had Floyd easy win 11-1, 10-2 at worst... a few close rounds but excellent effort by Floyd to adjust to this southpaw after the 1st round... Great effort from Maidana! no rematch needed.. next
“Next time let me use my gloves”😭😂😂
Exactly Floyd! All said and done, protect your health! 100, all of it... "Hard work! Dedication!"
Low blows, tackles, behind the headshots, headbutts. Yeah maidana brought his arsenal lol
hahaha poor guy you are... Floyd bring, hugs, chokes, elbows and the REFEREE!
Vincent Marduk Don't forget the judges - 2 of 'em lives in Las Vegas. Go figure!
What about Floyd's elbows through out the night?
& the other judges who don't live in Las Vegas had it all Floyd to win on both unofficial and official scorecards... Floyd won, get over it bruh
*****
It was totally on the contrary...
REAL FANS BECOME FANS WHEN THEY SEE THE BEST AND FLOYD HAS PROVEN THAT HE'S THE BEST.
TBE = the best excuses hahaha floyd exposed himself
Lol at the crying and the excuse making. Floyd said before the fight that he was going to do something different. He clearly did something different in the first 5 rounds, where 3 of them he clearly was getting his ass beat, but then decided he wasn't going to win by going off his game plan. He adjusted and went back to his style of fighting and dominated. Okay, Floyd still landed more and threw fewer those first 5 rounds, so who won those, is all subjective. If they fight again, I guarantee, Floyd will fight his normal fight. THIS IS BOXING. If you guys want to see a brawl, there's MMA. The object is to inflict the most damage while getting hit the least. It's not a slug fest, though many fans like that style of fighting. Sluggers end up punch drunk when they retire, and can't comfortably spend their money. Look at Ali.
I agree this is boxing. We are paying to watch boxing. If you know what you watching you appreciate Floyd. There is nothing or nobody like him. If you're skill level isn't there than you get you're asse beat by fighters like Maidana like Broner, but yes! this is boxing!
^^ EXACTLY! Those that can't do, teach, & lesser boxers, brawl.
TheAlienilluminati it is a fight tho. Even boxer loose to brawlers u dint have to always box to win. Just Cuz he landed a few clean shots over 20 to the body that he was getting did not win any of the first 5 or 12 round
xjbrroo I agree, boxers can lose to brawlers, but the fact is, Floyd hasn't. The 12th round we will disagree on. The first 5, yes, he lost, but I tend to believe him when he said he was just putting on a show. Regardless, Floyd won everything after 5. Even if you give the 12th to Maidana, it's possible that 2 of the first 5 rounds could have gone either way. I gave those 2 close rounds to Maidana for the sake of argument. But Floyd won the fight either way.
I am not sure Maidana can box. One can clearly see that he came in for a kill, not to box. Meaning, once his next opponent isn't going to be called Mayweather he would probably be lost in that fight...
fight pacqiao next. fuck a maidana rematch.
Fuck you too
I rooted for maidana but after hearing floyd at this interview. He is a humbold dude and did make sense. He knows where he came from and does what he has to do.
YALL CAN LIE TO YOURSELVES ALL YOU WANT FLOYD WON
Your just a punk ass bitch. What u say will never matter. Any female at that
jdvicvega0 because urs does matter ? hahahhahahah fuck outta here
46 - 0 BITCHES
Selma, and what did you win yourself?
16:35 CUZ IF HE GOT HIS HAD RAISED HE WOULDNT BE TALKIN BOUT THE GLOVES!!!!! LMAOOO floyd killed em wit that shit... #TMT
Manny Pacquiao is WBO Champion. Why not fighthim next since he won 2 consecutive fights.
Well now it makes sense. When I was watching the fight I was yelling at my boys asking why is Floyd CONSTANTLY baiting maidana to the ropes??!!?? It was because he was going to show the world that he could go toe to toe with a knock out artist and still pull away with the win. Floyd is a beast!! And he was 14 to 15 pounds lighter than his opponent that's a knock out artist!!!! Finesse prevails brawling!!!!!!!!!!
Lmao after a performance like this, no wonder he isn't Tryna see pacquiao
***** Don't matter Manny would KO that bitch blindfolded
The most amazing thing to me is that Mayweather doesn't lie. He tells you all to your faces exactly what his intentions were and what he's doing, and you still all get duped. He did what he had to do to sell this fight. He even tells you how overrated he's aware his opponent was, and how he used that to his advantage through the help of the media. He admits, as I've been saying, that Cotto and Canelo, are better fighters and harder hitters. And what do you all do. You take it as denial and sell yourselves into a rematch, where exactly what Mayweather says will happen. Then you all cry months down the line about mismatch long after it happens and could have been avoided. It's like watching someone tell you they're going to rob you, then doing it. I'm not going to sympathize with stupidity like that.
I'm pretty much done with these fights and the whole Mayweather thing ... Anybody that knows a lil bout this sport and it's history know that calling this guy THE BEST EVER is just insane. Thanks Chino u put on a show last night and I can't wait to see u fighting again, with a real fighter thou cuz honestly watching sumbody running from his opponent for 12 rounds ain't even entertaining anymore.
Maidana had Mayweather on the ropes and still couldn't land a punch. What are you talking about?
Floyd is a counter puncher. So naturally he backs away in the ring in order to set up his best shots. Why is Floyd "running away" but guys like Juan Manuel Marquez are greats and they're the same type of fighters.
Well I don't like it, I recognize his talent but I see that his fights are always surrounded by a lot of bullshit like the thing with the gloves n shit so I don't love him I don't hate him, I can give two fucks bout his race or his money or whatever cuz it's bout boxing so in my opinion he's not the best ever I've seen better champions I could write a list ...
@@saveyoursoul9067 well when you're the best and on top of the list and a person who doesn't let ppl define them of course all of them want to take your head off and take your spot so him thinking about his children and family taking the gloves what you call "bullshit" serious is the smartest thing he could've did cause at first he wasn't aware or curious about it, it was Lenard who brought that "Maidana unpadded gloves" to his attention and he Took it serious like any boxer would y'all see what happens to alot of boxers
Mayweather, "Next time don't hit me in the dick so much"
Maidana, "Next time let me use my gloves"
LMAO
He's unpadded gloves
Marcos Maidana; The dirty fighter who still loss.
Floyd Mayweather the man who make Maidana change his gloves for fear, and just 24 hs before the battle,
Esteban Ganim yea that same guy. as Floyd said if midana would have won the gloves being changed would not have been an issue.
*****
Your name says it all. Idiot.
***** manny pacman is the best for me humble kind honest boxer
Jeph Mercado
I like manny he seems like a great person.
YES! rematch but with 8oz. gloves not the heavyweight gloves they fought with.
They fought in 8oz gloves, here we go with the lying mutha-fuckas. Who had on 10 oz gloves? Nobody!
k. calm down brother but there was a back room deal about the gloves where the maidana camp complained about look it up and let me know what was the controversy about? bigger gloves? or what?
Muhammad Ali tweeted that JailWeather Jr. don't have the testicular fortitude to face Pacquiao
JailWeather lol
***** Ali didn't serve any time...Floyd went to jail for beating on a girl. Smh.
Muhammad Ali didn't tweet shit, he talk talk speak or barely move on his own.
Ali can't speak or barely move, he didn't say shit about Floyd.
***** True the system can be unfair. My point is that Floyd's character isn't anywhere near Ali's. It's easy to disrespect the man's character since he is not the most humble person to say the least. Ali's accusation and circumstance is respectable, but I can't say the same about Floyd. Guilty or not, the fact he was even accused of that does not surprise me. I respect the skill, but I do not respect the man.
Maidana you seem like a good humble guy that is still improving and still
has a great future in boxing. GO CHINO !
