I would not be shocked. Everybody gets KTFO sooner or later (except Rocky Marciano)---Lennox, Tyson, Foreman, Liston, Joe Louis, Walcott, Larry Holmes, Joe Frazier, everybody gets knocked out sooner or later. I will not be surprised. Somebody always has somebody's number. Maidana just mnay have that unorthodox chopping overhand right at the correct angle to catch Floyd on the side of the head and knock him cold.
O God, let us pray!!!
Not as shocked as when Roy was sparked. Floyd is 37 years old, you never know when his body will fail him but it will fail him. Father time is undefeated.
What by Maidana? Pretty bloody shocked!!!
Very shocked as Floyd is showing no sign of slowing down but here is hoping that before he retires he gets KTFO.
We can agree on this!Quote:

I would be very happy, It will not happen. He was picked for a reason
Marciano was a bum, fighting bums in a bum era of heavyweight boxing.Quote:

I think Maidana is going to hurt Floyd... he's more lubricious and more aggressive than Canelo was/is.
Sure, Canelo knew how to bang... but he tried to box... Maidana isn't coming to box, or try to think he can box... he's coming to bang and fight. Kinda like Ortiz did before he got stupid.
It's a shame that the biggest challenge Floyd has faced in the last three years was Victor Ortiz. lololol.....
Shocked. Especially by Maidana. If it was GGG, then I wouldn't be shocked, but anyone else 160 and down would shock me. When PAC was in his prime, that wouldn't have shocked me, but now it would. I would say a Maidana stoppage is equal to the Buster Douglas stoppage of Mike Tyson.
I'm just gonna say this. I never thought that Roy Jones would ever be taken to the wood shed like he had happen to him, even in his decline. It's always a possibility.
Lol. Missed you country boy.Quote:

Canelo and maidana are great opponents so why belittle them.
Maidana has the experience of at least fighting broner and even though broners no mayweather its the closest thing to him and it will help him in this fight.
Looking at the way he try to avoid being hit at all cost and his nervous smile everytime his opponent even just grazes his head, I've got this feeling he's hiding an eggshell somewhere under his chin. But good for him, he has mastered the art of avoiding punches and punchers, if can get my drift..
I wouldn't be shocked.
People are really sleeping on Maidana, I don't know why because the same people were sleeping on him vs Broner and he whipped some ass.
Floyd's 37 years old and physically he's been slowing down over the past few years: he still looks great, but his hands, reflexes, and especially his feet have noticeably slowed. Right now he's whipping guys with his intelligence in the ring.
Maidana is a big puncher, but he's very unorthodox with his punching. A lot of the big bombs he nailed Broner with were from crazy angles that totally flustered Broner. Now I know there's a big difference between hitting Broner and hitting Floyd, but Maidana has as good a puncher's chance as anyone at that weight.
Eggshell? Did you not see Mosley land flush on the jaw with all his power twice, and Floyd get rocked but recover? Floyd's been hit, man. He doesn't have a glass jaw.Quote:

ummm he took on Cotto, Guerrero, and Canelo, back to back, not a bad who's who of names, and Cotto is a WAY bigger threat than Ortiz, sad that Pacquiao took on Rios who should already had a loss to friggin Abril at 135 and who has shown time and time again that the only thing that is exceptional about him is his chinQuote:

I thought Mosley was a old, washed up fighter and he rocking floyd, ya eggshell was an exaggeration but maybe a glass one, I guess...Well cheers, anyway.Quote:

Zab had Floyd in real trouble. Floyd can take a punch, I thought Cotto had some moments as well.Quote:

Did Corley wobble Floyd or was that just Cotto?Quote:

Many wobble him but they cant beat him..maidana is on a 4 streak win and his confidence is high and one of the best at 147 today.Quote:

That's right, and some of you folks need to relax a bit when someone mention his not-so-ideal chin 'cause he just don't need one...Quote:

id be very shocked if maidana lands a punch
You're talking about a guy who's fought murderous punchers and has never been even dropped with a punch, and "not so ideal" chin?Quote:

Floyd can take a punch.
Let me just ask you one question, so you're saying Floyd has an ideal chin? If you say yes, I will not argue with you...Quote:

An ideal chin is a chin that doesn't cost you fights or points. So yes, he has an ideal chin.

Do I think he has a solid jaw? Fuck yeah I do. Who the fuck could possibly argue that? He hasn't been stopped or dropped in 18 years of professional boxing.
No kidding. Ortiz is literally the softest spot on Floyd's resume in 5 years unless his ratings are more fucked than the WBC's.Quote:

Very
Yes you were wrong, you accused Floyd of having a china chin. There is a lot of territory between "China Chin" and "Greatest Chin of All Time".Quote:

Ortiz has been Floyd's most active and busy fighter in the last few years.... not that he would have beaten Mayweather, but it proved to show me something as to why Mayweather ducked Manny- PUNCH OUTPUT AND PACE OF THE FIGHT. That with hand speed, Floyd can't cope.
Take a look at Floyd's fights with Judah, Mosely (early rounds), Emanuel Agustus, Castillo 1 and Ortiz. The guys that had the most success against Floyd, for what it's worth (guys that at least got punches in and either cut or scratched Mayweather) have been guys with huge punch outputs.
If Maidana commits to 60 punches and up a round, and make, at least, 20 to 30 of them power punches- hit or miss- he has a chance at winning a few rounds.
Problem is Maidana is not a true 1 punch KO artist at 147.
He's also quite slow and open.
He is awkwardly clever, relentless, tough as hell and quite confident though.
He ll bring it at least n have a 10% chance I'd say.

Pac did take the required drug test. would you take an extra weird not even required test just cause some thug douche demanded you do? I think not. Wake up. It was an excuse to get out of fighting someone who had a damn good chance of KO'ing you!
and a PRIME Mosely woulda beat Mayweather! Lil Fraud likes to wait till fighters are old & damaged goods. LAME!!!
Floyd literally won't ever lose so this is a pointless thread
