He's got nothing to worry about, as much as I would love to see him on the wrong side of a robbery.

Thank god Garcia finally asked how you bite a guy with a mouthpiece and travel that bite through a glove?

Floyd should not complain about it but Showtime posted pictures, he did bite his hand.

I'm sure he did because Floyd is not the type of fighter to fake that kind of thing, but I didn't see any conclusive evidence of an actual bite.

You cant really see squat and how do you do that with a mouthpiece? How does that pressure not rip the glove and yet travel through two materials with enough force to cause that episode? Even a floor shot showing him doing the action would not equal the pain Floyd showed and really "my left hand was numb from round 8" Please?

It's highly likely Maidana did attempt to bite, seeing as to how Floyd was practically palming his face. But your point about the force of such a bite, with a mouthpiece on, and through a boxing glove.... is right on. Def acting job by Floyd.

Very true it almost looked like he was trying to lace him. I just dont get the charge and the point deduction was also a joke. I stick up for the guy more often then not but that whole thing had a real stink to it.

You can see his mouth in position to bite, his jaw flexed like a bite when you compare pictures and Floyd react at that moment like he was bit. How many times has Floyd claimed to be bit in his career? Are we supposed to think Floyd thought I'm winning every round I want to win but his mouth is in the right spot to bite me so I'll claim he did? Is this what is going through Floyd's mind when he's about to be up at worst 6-2?

I agree all the drama was absurd. But thinking Floyd made up the bite ignores logic man.

I think Maidana likely did bite. But to @IamInuit 's point, how much pressure could he really have put on that bite to cause Floyd's fingers to go numb? Floyd is not above being a drama queen.

Clearly the motion of opening ones mouth does not equal the effect put on display. To say otherwise given the mechanisms at play would be to ignore logic my friend.

Something happened for sure because Floyd has never played such a card but it was no bite and to carry on after the fact with the interview and that one handed comment is borderline sincere delusion on his part. He should have showed the world this hand numbing injury.

The irony is that he actually did a better job this time and yet showed more slippage.

You bite with your jaw. So it's the bottom row of teeth that causes the damage not the top row that has the mouth guard. Garcia might not realize that that's the body works.

Meh fight. Floyd showed little flashes of past brilliance but nothing special. I think Floyd is right to retire after two more fights.
