Why are people impressed with floyd? (last fight)

Ok floyd barely beat a B+ class fighter in maidana his first fight and the second fight he beat him again, and it was not impressive at all imo. I mean wtf, yall he beat maidana.....Mai fucking dana. A walking brain fart with zero speed. Floyd didnt stagger or even hurt maidana.

PLease someone let me know why they are impressed with a win against a guy who has loses to normal fighters. I hope those boo's i heard during the fight are people realizing their hero is a punk bitch.

One thing floyd did do was get a good cardio workout.

GOOD THINGS
He is undefeated, makes 30 million plus when he fights, has money, cars, houses, rubs elbows with the rich and famous, people listen to what he has to say (even when they think he's full of shit), he has a (dare I say it) stable of hot accomplished women, he is loyal and generous with family and friends, he is a boxing promoter with a good name, and probably has interests in several other businesses.

BAD THINGS
He's undefeated (lol), he makes 30 million plus when he fights (lol), he doesn't fight the way I think he should, and he has a problem with his lady friends once in a while.

LAST FIGHT
Floyd always figures out a way to win, he always wins.
Look, I'm not a big Floyd fan, but if can't figure out a few things to admire about him you need to open eyes and your mind, sir.

I understand he is good, but he has done nothing impressive his last few fights. too me i see, lots of runnning, handpicked fights, and him not hurting anyone. his last 8 fights have been against people he had a 100% chance of winning.....cause he picked em

Boo Hoo!

What stood out to me the most out of the fight was when Maidana ducked Floyds lead right and countered with an overhand hitting Floyd flush at the end of round 3. He had Floyd hurt there and it looks like Floyd is looking more and more beatable. In an interview with a Spanish channel after the fight he said he no longer had a passion for the sport but that it was more of a job to him

well are you asking if we were impressed compared to what we have come to expect of floyd? because that would be a no. floyd definitely looked a little off during the fight and he even admitted it afterwards. maidana is a good fighter but not great. it was a good win and he won convincingly. i dont think that most people are super impressed with this win. i think that it was a good win with a fighter that he would have beaten a lot easier 5 years ago.

I wouldnt buy into one of his fights, I forget the last time I did, I wish the whole world would do the same thing, then he'd have to fight the top seed.

I spent yesterday coughing into a bucket,it was much more fun than watching Floyd do it easy (even for free via a link).

Last time he impressed me was against Marquez say what you want no one else could make JMM look wanting not even in his close fights against Manny.

Seems like they are still flaunting that hope so some keep buying into the hype.

Floyd Mayweather says he isn't evading Manny Pacquiao

Hes looking beatable because of one punch landing at the end of the third?

You do realise there was another 9 roumds where Floyd lamded at will?

Said it before and will say it again, this practice is corrupt. I hope he gets his last two fights and retires...

I don't wish to see him back in the sport. He has done enough. Only wish to see him back in the sport under different terms- terms that dictates who he fights and where.

Floyd at this time is doing more harm to the sport than good. He simply is exploiting the corrupt pockets of the sport and turning them into victories for himself.

I agree, He was wobbly as shit after that punch landed. I watched it a few times. Maidana shouldve rushed him during the next round, cause floyd was woozy.

If its a job to him now, he laying thast ground work to have an excuse if he looses

Not because of one punch but because someone like Maidana who is alot slower then Floyd and is not known for his counter punching or timing was able to Time a lead right from the P4P king who is supposed to have some of the fastest hands in the sport. Plus after that punch Floyd seemed to age 5 years beginning the next round. Imagine what someone with faster hands and timing would have done. Floyd also stated he might wait not fight in May and might wait till next September maybe fighting more regularly is taking its toll.

He wasn't impressive compared to what we expect from Floyd but that might be due to Maidana being an awkward fighter and also the fact that he has improved alot under Robert Garcia.

Maybe Floyd's age and him fighting twice a year is taking its toll.

floyd ole running ass

Agreed, I fooled myself into thinking it was going to be an exciting fight. I expected Maidana to be on top of Floyd. Instead it reminded me of Floyd's fight with "The Ghost". I payed for the damn fight but to be honest it wasn't that bad as its an excuse to get together.Floyd did look half interested but it was domination. His hand speed and foot work are still beautiful. The way he screws about in the twelfth round really posses me off. I've seen much more boring Floyd fights than exciting. At least Maidana 1 had some excitement. Floyd should fight Manny so we can have a Floyd fight to get excited about.

Exactly, it was one bloody punch...most fighters get hit with loads of them every fight...Floyd made it look easy all fight and dominated Maidana in easier fashion than last time. He didn't look beatable in the slightest...Who would beat him whos about?? Nobody!!! Haters always will look for things to hate on..But Floyd will reach 50-0 I have no doubts about that.
