Floyd Mayweather v Marcos Maidana 2 fight chat thread
I thought I would get the ball rolling with this being a mega fight and no doubt the biggest event of the year in the boxing calendar. The first fight in my eyes was close but I still had Floyd being the winner in a really exciting showdown. Maidana looked amazing at the start of the fight and if he wants to win he really does have to sustain that pace for the whole 12 rounds. But I just don't see how anybody can fight like that for 12 rounds, and I know hes been working on improving his conditioning but I am still not sure if he can do that.
Floyd I think knows what to expect now and will have learnt a lot from the first fight and what adjustments are needed to get the win. Like he does if he is losing at the start, he changes things and gets the win. Now he knows what Maidana is I just don't see how hes going to be silly enough to make mistakes and lose a decision and theres no way Floyd is going to get knocked out. Maidana wont be any different, just a bit more confident and that could leave gaps if you ask me. I think Floyd will win a UD decision, maybe giving away a couple of early rounds but he will be a lot more defensive and outbox Maidana.
It will be a great fight though, I am looking forward to it. I am fighting myself on the Friday night against somebody who is 5-0 so this is a big weekend for boxing for me and I cant wait for the weekend to arrive now.

I'm looking forward to this one too. Maidana really did put him to the test in the first fight based on pure rough play and I don't think Floyd really chose to stay on the ropes to entertain the fans. Despite what his dad implies in that article.
Floyd will adjust but so will Maidana; it will be Floyd trying to give a boxing lesson and Maidana not paying much attention. Just like in the first.
Floyd UD.
Good luck to you on Saturday.;)
Edit: on Friday.

Margarito kept that pace for 12 rounds and Garcia trained him for a while maybe he could teach him some better conditioning

I hope Maidana can pull it off but I'm expecting a much more one sided fight this time around. Floyd is the much smarter fighter and is the one who has the ability to adapt and make adjustments. I think he kind of figured Maidana out in the mid rounds and that's why he won. I see him getting on Maidana from the get go this time around.
