Completed! The day when Mayweather Fast K.O. In 10 seconds from Maidana
On May 3, 2014, the world of boxing held its breath away when Floyd Mayweather Jr. were opposed to one of the most dangerous moments of his famous career and almost turned out by Marcos Maidana in the first seconds. The struggle, which is held in the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas for the AMB and the WBC’s world title, remains in memory as a rare instance in which the unbeaten “money” has staggered the edge of the defeat at 02:45 a.m. on Monday, June 23, 2025.
The drama developed in the first round, as Maidana, known for his relentless pressure and powerful strokes, triggered a violent attack. Just 10 seconds before the fight, the Argentinian landed a thunderous right hand, followed by a left hook, the Mayweather tumbled against the strings. The crowd exploded when Maidana fell and released a flood that had the visibly shaken champion. The commentator’s voice to amber increased the unbelief and screamed: “Maidana injured him early!”
Mayweather managed to survive the attack with his registered branded brand defensive competence by securing and using the ring to restore his serenity. Later, his corner revealed that he suffered a small cut and swelling, but adapted the 37-year-old legend and won with the majority decision with scores from 114-114, 116-112 and 115-113. However, the early domain of Maidana showed a vulnerability, which was rarely seen in the 50: 0 race of Mayweather.
Maidana considered after the fight: “I knew that I had it. If I had continued, it could have been different.” Fans in X continue to check the moment with publications such as “These 10 seconds were wild: Maidana almost ended the myth!” And “Mayweather’s fate saved him there.” At that time, the Argentine 35-5 record emphasized its threat, which made this almost a decisive chapter.
Years later, this meeting is a testimony by Mayweather’s resistance. Could Maidana have changed the story with a last blow? The boxing world is still debates, but this day is still an exciting memory of the thin line between victory and the defeat against the self -proof “TBE” (the best of all).
