Which is the biggest reason for Floyd's struggles tonight?

[Max Power]

Not as dominant as I expected (I thought it might be a late KO) but still a clear victory for Floyd (some wad reckons it was a "draw" above, must be C J Ross's husband lol).

You should have added a FOURTH possibility...

Imo the most accurate one...

4. Maybe, just maybe, he had a bad night.. And maybe in addition, Marcos had a good night. That's life!

Seems like a passable reason to me for the champ.

But credit to Maidana, he's no fluke now, he's a serious factor in the division.

His performance against Floyd will probably make Broner feel a little better now LOL. Maybe we'll hear that mouth open again soon!!

What did Maidana actually accomplish besides pushing Floyd against the ropes?

He got beat on the inside and the outside.

[KananKrus]

She carried Maidana all the way to the final bell... to make it seem like this fight was competitive. Meanwhile, Maidana made sure that his right hand hit nothing but air... all twelve rounds. A sleeper of a fight!

[Spicoli]

His opponent. Floyd didn't "choose" anything here. He was in a fight

Also, Beiber ffs and literally surrounding himself with clowns

Bieber is a complete faggot. Any young girl who has had an inch of cock up her will tell you he's a faggot, not exactly a "tough guy image" is it lol I can't believe he chills with that little moron!!

What did Maidana actually accomplish besides pushing Floyd against the ropes?

He got beat on the inside and the outside.

Maidana landed over 200 punches against one of the most effective defensive savvy fighters in the world. He outlanded Mayweather in half the rounds. He did effective work on the inside and outside, just as Mayweather did in the rounds he did well in.

In response to the OP, I think Mayweather prepares hard for every fight, but perhaps expected Maidana to be on the level of Guerrero and be coming at him slow and be countered accordingly. Maybe also with thoughts of Gatti in mind too. However, Mayweather is 37 and at the lighter weights fighters always slip at around this age. Mayweather got Mosley at the right time and in turn Maidana got Mayweather at the right time. I don't think Mayweather has his legs for 3 minutes a round anymore and only became semi-elusive after Maidana had worked so hard in the first half of the fight. I think it is just down to age. Cotto showed glimpses of it and now a few years on I think there is further erosion.

I know that sounds like I am discrediting Maidana, who I think actually won the fight, but I don't think he would have walked through the Mayweather of 2008 so easily. Maidana is awkward and difficult, but Amir Khan showed for the first half of their fight how to evade him. Maidana has probably improved too, but advanced age can only mean deterioration for Mayweather too. The man has a practically white beard, he is aging and auditioning for the role of King Lear.

Mayweather was getting ploughed from the off here. I hate to say it, but I think Khan could also outwork Mayweather. He is just old and I don't think he is Calzaghe smart in knowing when to get out. Maybe he flattens Maidana in the rematch, but he is only going to get older. Sam Peter was never as skilled as James Toney, but younger and bigger will happen to someone who doesn't get out at the right time.

[Gandalf]

Just look at my charming signature image and compare that with the face of Mayweather today. That's a lot of years no matter how well you preserve yourself. 37. I think the same about Marquez today and don't see why he is continuing. Boxers seldom cut the scene with the perfect ending.

Mayweather is far smarter than Calzhage...he does everything better by miles.
Joe should be mention along with Sven Ottke...not Floyd Mayweather.

Floyd fought like he did when he first turned WW.

He really let his hands go and was exchanging.

I seen all 3 fight. And Calzaghe is not on the level of Floyd Mayweather or Sven Ottke. It's disrespectful to Ottke to compare him to Calzaghe

[FinitoElDinamita]

lol @ Calzaghe being compared to Floyd..

They are leagues apart..

Nah, you're wrong, gotta go to bed now but even though I think this cyclone guy is a bit over the top thinking Maidana did not do well, Mayweather clearly won the fight, there can be no 2 ways about that. It was a competitive fight, that's as far as you can take it man, any further than that hateful.

I hate Floyd myself, I think he is scum! But he's the best boxer and he earned the win.. I give credit where it is due!

Honest question but I assume you won't answer it which in turn will answer the question. Not trying to get into some pathetic e-beef just want to know the answer. Are you intentionally FOS or do you honestly believe what you just said?

In case you can't tell I'm trying to be gracious to Marcos here, of course Floyd won a comfortable decision. I am giving Maidana a bit of credit for roughing Floyd a bit whereas previously thought he'd simply knock Maidana out. I am just dead against ascribing any perceived drop in performance to his age!!!

Maidana does deserves major props.

He did the only thing he could.

Mayweather had to beat him at his own game.

I'm sure the extra weight helped Maidana take those shots..especially to the body.

He was smart to come in heavy.
