Now if mayweather doesn't get caught I see him getting the decision again but I don't think it'll be easy like everyone thinks it's going to be. It will be similar to the first fight.

Floyd is pissed off, he was going to show Broner how to kick Maidana's butt and walked into a punching machine. Maidana embarrassed him and now he wants some payback.
I admire him for taking the fight, it's the right thing to do, there are easier fights out there. Floyd has an ample set.

The hate is strong! Maidana ain't knocking shit out. Outside of the ref allowing his dirty/rough house tactics...he has no chance.

Floyd will make suitable adjustments, might not be the entertaining. However the scorecards will by a UD

A few points to consider:
1) Floyd does better in rematches, as evidenced in his fight vs Castillo.
2) Floyd is very smart and will insist on a ref who will focus on Maidana and make him less effective by not allowing him to maul.
3) Floyd has seen Maidana for 12 rounds and seemed to figure him out by the later rounds. This doesn't bode well for Marcos.

Maidana will always be tough because he fights aggressively and at a ridiculous pace. He will always tire, not because he isn't in shape but because NO ONE can EVER sustain that pace and physicality for long. Look for Floyd to weather the early storm before coming on strong in the latter half to have Maidana holding on to reach the final bell, or possibly be disqualified. Floyd is just too good and on another level from Maidana. No one at 147 except Manny stands a realistic chance of beating him. Before anyone says or asks, I make Manny the underdog in that fight, but possibly higher ranking historically than Floyd at this point. Tough calls.

That's a bold prediction, given the fact that Maidana wasn't really able to land clean head shots or hurt Floyd in the first fight, and that Floyd is likely to make the necessary adjustments to not get hit as much.

I hate this Floyd will make adjustments bullshit. It's all bullshit. Let Maidana hit him in the face at this weight with the punchers gloves he wished to have, before Floyd cried like a little bitch about it.

This fight will almost be a shut out, Floyd won't make the same mistakes twice. He took Maidana for granted last time out, this will be a 120 -108 or 118-110 result at the least.

Probably but Floyd will pay him loads not to wear those gloves and win a shut out.

Anyone else think Andrade would give Floyd hell?

He's a tall, rangy, fast southpaw with a good jab.

I'm not so sure that there is any conclusive evidence that Floyd does better in rematches. One rematch against the same fighter using the same fight plan doesn't make that point. Castillo didn't have any reasons to change is fight plan because he won the first fight just not on the judges cards. Floyd fought smarter in the second fight making adjustments to his fight plan about not getting hit as much playing to what the judges looked for in the first fight. We don't have any idea if Maidana can make adjustments and come back with a more effect fight plan because he's not done that before. It goes more about his preparation for the rematch and weather or not he can stick to a new plan.

Floyd's second fight with Castillo was BORING... he ran most of the fight. That's not adjustments- that's garbage.

Too slow. Not ready. I'm not sold on Andrade. He's a candidate to be knocked out by someone who's someone.
