Maidana winning on points for me but I'll be surprised if he gets the decision. Hope he can get the knockout.
He's definitely winning on points, no question
Whether its the same for the judges we'll see. Wouldnt surprise me if there is a controversy here

Two knockdowns and points...the fight isnt even close.
Broner got clowned over 12 rounds can't win this one.
How Broner didnt get a point deducted is a joke.
Yep. He got lucky as feck. My crude drunken scorecard has it 115-110 for Maidana - Round 8 is the one that makes the scoring look weird.
I just hope he doesn't get robbed here, boxing can't take much more of that nonsense
Get the feck in!
Haha he looks like he can't believe it

Maidana unanimous win.
Stay classy Broner.
YESSSSSSS!!!! One of the judges actually scored it the same as me which I wasn't expecting. Absolutely fecking delighted to see Broner catch a loss and a beating.
Broner is bang average, another Showtime myth exposed.
Aye, thats the prick!Just read that Broner ran out of the ring after the decision was announced and got pelted with beer by the crowd. Normally I'd feel a bit sympathetic but in this case...
The "fat prick" is his dad.

fecking hell! I hope Broner blimps up like that after this defeat. It'd be like the end of Dodgeball. I'm pissing off to bed a happy man after tonight's fights.
Anyone catch the Purdy/Bundu fight on saturday evening? Purdy is one brave fecker. Ref stopped it with about 3 seconds of the last round left. Bandu is in amazing shape for a 39 year old.
Broner/Maidana Fight -- Formal Investigation Into Cheating Allegations
You can see Ariza put something into the tissue and put it in his mouth but who knows what that is?
mayweather is retiring next year
Link?
It's confirmed he had a 6 fight deal with Showtime 4 more fights and he's done
I have a feeling that Khan is a warm up for Manny which will probably be one of the last two on his contract. Just a theory though.
If the cold war ends maybe.
Pac's contract with Arum ends in 2015, Floyd won't work with Arum so maybe
Cheers.
I've said before when people said he was ducking Manny that Arum is the real problem. However Floyd has grown quite a bit since his prison term and the Arum thing dates back to near the beginning of his career when he was a top rank fighter. I think if its one of his last fights in boxing he would be smart enough to put that aside and look at it as retirement money. Just a theory but I believe he will fight and beat Manny.
I've never had any doubts that Floyd beats Manny even when both in their prime, I felt that Arum was trying to keep them apart because when Floyd presented the facts over negotiations. Manny simply went about calling him a coward etc,
People say asking for testing was Floyd ducking him, I think it was proper precaution and given Roach's claims that Ariza used to give Manny "mystery shakes" it is a decision for which he's been vindicated

IBF have ordered a rematch with Froch Vs Groves.
Great stuff, can't wait for this again.
If I'm honest I think Froch is running scared after the last fight (And I'm a Froch fan) and he will not like this one bit at all.
He had this to say earlier today,
Offered him a 7 figure deal? I smell bullshit tbh.

Pac-man won the first fight by a mile - I didnt even have bradley winning more than 1 round. It was the biggest fix ive ever seen and an embarrassment to the sport. Bradley did himself no favours by failing to acknowledge the corruption or be accepting that he lost the fight. I will look forward to seeing a motivated Pacquiao pummel 'desert storm'.
Haha like Pacquiao did after the 3rd fight with JMM?
I have ZERO sympathy for Pacquiao
I have ZERO sympathy for Pacquiao
I see it as a much harder fight the second time around for Pac than the first. If Bradley last performance against JMM is anything to go by then Bradley looks to be back to his awkward, illusive best (as opposed to boxing like a macho knuckle-head). Meanwhile Pac looked dazzlingly fast against Rios but again failed to show killer instinct and by his own admission eased off in the later rounds(easing up was his problem against Bradley).
For me a different fight this time around.
I dont know if you saw the Bradley fight but to compare the two suggests you didn't. They are completely different scenarios - Granted, Marquez vs Pacquiao 3 was close and could have gone either way, which could be said about all of the fights they shared (bar IV where PacMan was dominating and sensing blood - got over confident and then KO'd through sloppiness)
The Bradley fight was a whole different ball game - It was an embarrassment of a decision and anyone who watches boxings knows what actually happened - I took this extract from Wiki -
'ESPN scored the fight 119-109 for Pacquiao. HBO's unofficial judge, Harold Lederman, also had it 119-109 for Pacquiao. Most ringside media also scored the fight in favor of Pacquiao'
'Four days after the fight, Valcarcel said in a statement on June 13, 2012, that, though the WBO did not doubt the ability of the scoring judges, the WBO's Championship Committee would review the video of the fight with five independent, competent and recognized international judges and make a recommendation.[129] On June 21, 2012, the five WBO Championship Committee judges on the review panel announced that Pacquiao should have won his controversial defeat, with all scoring the fight unanimously in Pacquiao's favor — 117-111, 117-111, 118-110, 116-112 and 115-113. However, the WBO cannot overturn the result of the fight (only the NSAC would be able to do so), but recommended a rematch between the fighters.'
It was a unanimous Pacquiao win, the fact that Bradley has not once been real about the situation is a bit of an embarrassment as he is a fake champion.
The rematch will be telling as Bradley looked good against Marquez and Provodnikov but he is yet to truly beat PACMAN.
I think it is a different fight but I dont see a lot changing, they both have points to prove which could lead to a more open fight. With Pacs speed seemingly back I cant see Bradley getting the luck second time round, the previous fight was so one sided and with the added motivation and new lease for Pac, for me there is only one winner.
Points decision to PAC.
I'd go for Pac too, but not by as clear a margin as the first.
Saw this on the BBC and excellent news from the IBF because that's the one Froch sees as his belt, the one he loves to defend no matter who comes up yet they have told him what we all knew, should never have been stopped and was likely to lose it.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/boxing/25888443
Froch can't argue with that one!! And what I like is how the IBF talk about the ref, his positioning and how Groves was moving and hitting back.
And remarkably despite that essay I couldn't care less...
