Der wurde in BoxenForen von vielen durch die Bank kritisiert.
Jetzt zu deiner Frage: Hat Bayless sich ganz strickt an die Regeln gehalten - ohne den Gedanke Wilder dabei zu schützen? Ein Blick auf den Kampf Mayweather vs Maidana 2 genügt um zu erkennen, in welchem Widerspruch seine Entscheidungen im Vergleich zu Kampf zu Fury vs Wilder stehen. Dort war es Mayweather, der ständig geklammert hat und gerne Maidana runtergedrückt hat. Bayless ging es völlig am A... vorbei. Viel mehr hat er den Clinch direkt getrennt ohne den Boxern die Chance zu geben sich aus dem Clinch zu lösen. Denn der erste Kampf hat deutlich gezeigt, dass Maidana so einige gute Treffer im Clinch und aus dem Clinch landen konnte und genau diesen Vorteil hat Bayless ihn genommen. Auf der anderen Seite hat er Floyd mit seinen dirty Tricks walten lassen.
Erst diese dieser Widerspruch offenbart wie bias Bayless ist.
ich habe den kampf gesehen. da war alles fair and square. biased? alles klar.
The pro-Maidana crowd filled with Argentines cheered his every move, but it was Mayweather who continually touched him with jabs and counter right hands. Maidana did land some solid blows, including a heavy right hand at the end of the third round, but Mayweather quickly shook it off.
Maidana had some success bull rushing Mayweather in the fifth round and pinning him on the ropes and firing his shots. He rattled Floyd with a couple of right hands before Mayweather was able to escape.
The fight turned weird in the eighth round when Maidana leaned into Mayweather, who had him in a headlock. As they wrestled, Mayweather suddenly jumped away and complained to referee
Kenny Bayless that Maidana had bitten him on his left hand. After the round was over, he came to the media side of the ring and shouted, "He bit me!"
The MGM Grand has a history of that since it was in the same ring in 1997 that
Evander Holyfield had a chunk of his ear bitten off by
Mike Tyson in their heavyweight championship rematch. Guess what? Holyfield was ringside Saturday night.
"I didn't know what it was," Mayweather said. "Something happened and then my fingers were numb. After the eighth round my fingers were numb. I could only use my other hand. He bit me. I realized he bit me.
"We were tangled in the middle of the ring and all of a sudden I felt something on my left hand."
Maidana denied the bite, although it appeared as though he did on video replays.
"Maybe he thinks I'm a dog, but I never bit him," Maidana said through a translator. "He was rubbing my eyes that round. He may have had his glove in my mouth, but I never bit him."
Maidana's all-out aggression was not what it was when they met four months ago, when he landed more punches (221) against Mayweather than any opponent had in the 37 Mayweather fights tracked by
CompuBox. In the rematch, Mayweather landed 166 of 326 punches (51 percent) and Maidana connected on only 128 of 572 shots (22 percent).
After the ninth round, another one seemingly for Mayweather, an apparently confused Maidana went to the wrong corner and Mayweather ran over to him and pointed in the right direction to the proper one, eliciting laughter from the crowd.
Former two-division titleholder Maidana, already way behind, lost a point when Bayless docked him for shoving Mayweather to the canvas in the 10th round.
Mayweather, with the fight well in hand, played defense in the 12th round as Maidana chased after him to no avail. Amazingly, Maidana said he thought he won the fight.
"If the judges want to give the fight to fighters that run, they can give it to him," he said. "I was attacking all the time. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought that I was the aggressor. I kept my plan to be aggressive but he kept holding and pushing.
"I don't want to waste my time with a third fight. I trained with all my heart to get this type of result. This is not fair. There's not reason for another fight."
