    The 2 cards were ludicrous, I could see that maybe you score rounds for Mayweather based on snappier punching in some rounds, but Maidana landed almost the same number of shots overall and yet won only a few rounds according to one judge? I think the rounds Mayweather won were quite clear, but I think the same for Maidana in the first half. Even Showtime were off with it even at half way. I just don't see how they had that. It was almost as though they kept it close at the end as an apology for the aberration. Fair enough on the draw, but I think Showtime showed their true colours with their cash cow. I don't think 5 out of 6 votes from the fans will go Mayweather's way.

    Mayweather won 7-5 and if they fight again it should sell good numbers even though maidana can't beat floyd. I don't know if floyd just had a off night or age is starting to catch up with him but maidana can't and won't ever beat an old floyd

    i had it 9-3 Floyd. Only gave Maidana round 1.5 and 8. Dont like giving rounds for work rate when he landed nothing clean. I though 114-114 was a joke. Cant see how u can give Chino 6 rounds.

    I think people are dead set on seeing Floyd lose that it clouds their judgment. I give the early rounds to Maidana but once Floyd stood his ground it was all Money. The 117-111 is more then fair. No need for a rematch. Khan vs Money should be interesting while it last and the possibilities for Maidana are off the chart if he continues to look like he did last night.

    I had it even until the eighth, though I may have been a little generous to Maidana. After that I couldn't make an argument for him: he had 30-40 seconds of sustained pressure per round which, had he maintained it, would have given him the nod for me, even though his work was not as clean as Floyd's, it was awkwardly effective, and he did a very good job of closing the distance and making it ugly. I was also a little surprised at how well he used his jab at times, but unfortunately he faded late, partially due to the exertion of the early rounds and partially due to some cute body shots from Floyd in the mid to late rounds. Decent fight though.

    At first I thought this was a joke thread, of course Mayweather won the fight.

    But then when I noticed the Pac option I realised it was a smart thread.

    Pacquiao is definitely the winner of that fight. More than ever now it underscores that Pac vs Floyd is the fight that HAS to happen!

    Based on that performance Pac is back in the running with as good a chance as any of being able to get the goods, and Mayweather would know it too.

    Expect more running and hiding to come fellas :yep!!!
