I believe this becuase maidana has a open feb date and it can sell maidana beat ortiz. Good match up of styles and hes with Golden Boy easy fight to make it just makes sense.
Martinez and Pac. Who you gonna fight in February Floyd? Cuz as I see it, those are the only logical choices. Although he would like to fight as early as February, that goes against his way of marketing a fight. I heard him say somewhere that the reason why he doesn't fight as often as other fighters do, is to let the fight brew in the minds of the fans, get us all hype and ****. If that's the case, then he'll only have 3 months to market the fight, that ain't much time. If he's actually gonna go through with this, then he'll need to make the announcement before the middle of December.
Sayin all of that, if he fights Martinez or Pac, then he won't really need much time for marketing, as the boxing public is already anticipating them anyway. Unless he's goin to fight a Canelo Alvarez or somethin. Dayum i wish Floyd could just kill the tension and say who he's interested in lol
Not going to happen.
Even less people know Maidana, then they did Ortiz.
Nice sig pic! And i think its a good fight but i guess not.mayb he will fight khan and push it to march
No way. Yes, Maidana beat Ortiz, but Maidna-Ortiz II should happen before Mayweather-Maidana. Plus, Maidana hasn't done s**t since he lost to Khan, except almost drop a decision to a way past it Morales and beat a couple no names.
For Maidana to EVER get a Mayweather shot, he'd have to beat Bradley, Khan, Berto, or Ortiz again.
If Mayweather fights again in FEB, I think it will be Sergio, and than I think he will try and fight again in the summer (May-July), and than again in December probably. If he doesn't fight in February, it will be on May 5th and than he'll probably fight again in November or December.
