ESPN en Español just reported that the Maidana team is "surprised" because in Africa Mayweather still mentioned Chino along with Khan as a possibility for his 3rd May fight.
Maidana's adviser Sebastián Contursi told ESPN that "we have been offered the rematch with Broner, so I don't understand why Mayweather still says Maidana is one of the candidates". He added that "if eventually the option is Khan, well, it will be business matters. What you can be sure, and we already said it to GBP and Haymon, is that Maidana won't fight in April".
Interesting, perhaps this is where the two end up falling out
it might be a bad idea for Broner, but what else is he gonna do right now? He can't even leave his house until Maidana let's him.
He can't have Floyd snatch that fight and beat Maidana,. and make him look even smaller. Then he wouldn't get anything from a rematch if big bro had to come in and lay a blueprint for him
and for Floyd, it's chess for him...hes old now. He shouldnt care about Broner, 100s of guys have fallen why he's been around so why care about this dude; who, to this point, hasn't listened to damn word of advice from him....
hell, he can X out someone who was coming for his spot. Take Maidana, beat him...and if he someday fights Broner, he will have some hilarious banter to go at him with.
How does one "cherry pick" world champions? How do you grab MULTIPLE world titles that someone already posseses (not vacant) and still be a paper champion?
So he's good enough to win a world titles in multiple weight divisions, but he still sucks?
What the **** is wrong with these people? Someone please tell me...
Your logic is awful.
How does one cherry pick world champions - you pick the weakest of the bunch as theres plenty to choose from. A better question would be directed towards you, why can't a beltholder be cherrypicked?
How can you be a paper champion by winning a non-vacant belt - by defeating a paper champion by razor thin decision. You prove you aren't paper by beating the best, not winning some belt and claiming greatness.
wonder how broner will feel if floyd steals this fight from him.
Sheeeeyat bruh he'll probably be giddy as f**k. It's a win-win. Think about it...he already announced that he wanted the rematch and reportedly exercised the rematch clause. So it appears to the public that he had the nutz to actually get back in the ring with Maidana. And then Floyd swoops in and fights him, thus eliminating the rematch and saving Broner from getting publicly urinated on in front of everybody....again.
Broner should move to 140 and fight Peterson.
That way if he wins he would be the worst 4 weight Champion in the history of Boxing.
No but he should move down and look for one of those straps. That's would I would do if I was his promoter.
I just think rematching Maidana is a bad idea.How does one "cherry pick" world champions? How do you grab MULTIPLE world titles that someone already posseses (not vacant) and still be a paper champion?

nobody will care about that fight after floyd beats him 12-0.
It also makes Broner look even that much worse when his "big brother" takes care of the big bully for him. It might be the biggest reason why Mayweather vs Maidana isnt happening.
I read on Boxing Scene top headlines that Mayweather is still claiming he does not know who his fighting and he won't know his opponent for another week. Mayweather is a pro liar. He has been telling so many lies for so long that it doesn't bother him to keep up the lies. He knows and has known for months that his May opponent is KHAN and no other fighter was ever considered at all.
Although Floyd and Golden Boy pretended Maidana was in the race for the Mayweather fight to make it look like they were trying to find the best possible opponent for Mayweather it was total BS. Mayweather-Khan was already a done deal and set in stone many weeks before the Maidana-Broner fight took place. Maidana was never in the race for the Mayweather fight for a single second. People can believe whatever they want but that is the truth. The fight between Alexander and Khan was called off because Schaefer and Mayweather Sr. wanted Floyd to fight Khan and they did not want to risk Khan losing to Alexander and spoiling the Mayweather-Khan fight. The day the Khan-Alexander fight was called off was probably pretty close to the day the Mayweather-Khan was finalized.
knowing floyd the roided fraud, he is just using maidana's name to hype up his choice of opponent, in the end he'll choose the easiest fight of all... that is iron jaw khan!
:usa2:
Floyd should just do the right thing and give the fight to the more deserving opponent, which is maidana.
If broner wants his rematch then he has to go to aregentina to get it and chino takes 70% of the purse.
Broner should move to 140 and fight Peterson.
