Maidana- Floyd 3 round

Post by Coachmanager »

I think "Maidana vs Floyd"'s third round is perfect to check as we point the fights. In this Round Floyd is landing more but no strong punches, at the end of the round Maidana landed the most dangerous punch between the two fights. Who is the winner of this round for you? I think this is interesting.

Problem for me in that round is Marcos landed one "dangerous punch" in the last few seconds & Floyd probably won the rest of the 2:55 of the round or w/e it was. And idk that that punch was all that "dangerous" either. Idr if that was a close or competitive round tbh with you, but I know I only gave Marcos 2 of the first 11 rounds & I don't believe the 3rd was one I gave to him. I'll rewatch the fight &/or 3rd round sooner or later & maybe note it here.

Its a tough one to call,i still gave Floyd the round but i reckon if Maidana landed it earlier in the round yet still landed nothing after it i maybe would have gave him the round as i would have had more time to see the affect of the punch,no doubt Floyd was rocked but we never got to see his recouperative powers proper due to him being in the corner and being able to just sit right down rather than walk,if the punch landed earlier or even if it landed it the centre of the ring and Floyds legs buckled even a bit then i would have gave it to Marcos

I always like to score fights when I watch, I gave rounds 1 and 2 to Floyd and round 3 to maidana because even though Mayweather prior to that big punch was winning the round he wasn't winning it too far ahead of Maidana it was pretty close with Mayweather being a little faster, but the huge punch at the end definatly gave Maidana the round.

the worse part is that Dave Morreti gave round 4 to Mayweather, round that was clearly dominated by Maidana.
