Floyd Mayweather v Marcos Maidana 2 fight chat thread

[IamInuit]

I'll just quote myself since there are multiple threads on the same topic and I'm lazy sitting here with my morning cup of Brazilian dark roast.



Maidana was wearing the custom flat Everlasts. He got beat and much worse then the first time and the point deduction and bite gate made no difference whatsoever.

It was an ugly fight but Maidana is the one that initiated all the horse shit and lets face it that's the only chance he had of winning. An ugly fight.

Some people want Floyd to lose so bad that they simply make shit up or like Jim Lampley see things during fight time that are not there and calling punches that were not even thrown. Ugly ass fight that Floyd still won 8 rounds to 4 at worst.

One thing I will say on Floyd is that he's lost something and I had been saying that through the entire buildup and it seemed more mental to me then physical which in my view can effect the physical. He seemed to get his mojo back at the weigh in and looked like a man on a mission at fight time but I think that was fronted. I think he has some real issues upstairs and its mixing with his hubris.

He might want to think about getting an outside trainer. His old man never gave him one coherent message in the corner last night or one bit of actual in fight boxing advice unless you include "we got this"

Good post. I agree with what you say.

I think Floyd needs Roger back as main trainer and corner man. To me it seems like Floyd gets hit more since senior has been in the corner even though he's supposed to be the more defense first guy.

Something is definitely not right with the guy. Its like he's absent or not all there. That 50 and 0 mark must look like a pretty long road right now. He might want to consider a real shakeup and total change of surroundings imo. I think his personal life is getting to him and combined with all the hubris, that's a dangerous cocktail.
