what happen to maidana being a warrior?

The reality is, we all know why Maidana doesn't want to fight Thurman. He's not afraid of Thurman, he just knows Thurman can beat him. And probably pretty easily. Maidana knows, and his team knows, this is their last chance to really cash out - because they are also very aware of his limitations. And that's not a knock on Maidana. He's a tough guy, but a very limited fighter. With that being said, I would love to see him in there with guys he's better matched up with. Like Mathysse, Provodnikov, Garcia, Bradley. Guys like Pac, Khan (if he doesn't walk into a huge shot), Mayweather, Thurman beat him easily. Stylistically they do not favor Maidana. Of course, this is my honest opinion.

maidana has fought mayweather, khan, kotelnik, alexander, ortiz thurman has fought bundu, a couple washed ex titlists and a couple cab drivers. and maidana is 1-5 in those fights. thus showing he isn't at that level

maidana knows thurman wrecks him because maidana is a b level fighter at best. He was handed 2 big fights that he didn't earn and now believes that hes a great fighter. He kept fighting 140 lbers at 147 and thought he was the man. Any top welterweight outclasses him

I do think Maidana beats Thurman, but right now it's not looking good on him with the whole ducking thing. It sucks for Maidana because Thurman is a big puncher, but brings neither money nor a name. So, it's a tough one. thurman is very dangerous, why deny it. but it's funny how one thing works for somebody but not for the rest. on the record, chino is coming from 2 losses in a row, he needs a win now, more than thurman, then they can fight. i wanna see it too.

Let's see what happens before we call anything a duck. You fools around here are so quick of judgement. Let's say Maidana gets a shot at Pac or Canelo (or someone of high stature that is going to get him a lot of money) that's not a duck. So let's just shut up and wait to see where the dominoes fall

What's ironic is that many of the same posters who accuse Floyd of being a ducker are now the same ones excusing Maidana.... LOL so much bias and hypocrisy on here it's insane! Yep. So many posters are proving themselves full of sh*t right now. Danny Garcia's ducking Matthysse, Floyd's ducking everyone ever, but Maidana's just being smart.

Do you really thinks Maidana gives a ****? Look at him, watch him. He DOESNT care. His manager tells him what to do and his manager knows what he's worth now. Maidana would fight anyone for the right money and I think he's earned it at this point in his career. WHo the **** is bum bum Thurman? Dude went silent when Alexander called him out. ALEXANDER. You and anyone else who doesn't know what they're talking about can keep saying Thurman ducked Alexander all you want, but no matter how many times you say it, it won't be true.

Maidana twice tasted the big money pie and the warrior thing went out the window.

He has to earn it, he shouldn't just demand title shots against title challengers seeing as he has lost his lost his last 2 fights. Khan doesn't have a title.

Dis dude gat a family...he in the biggest stage of his career.....Let dis dude get some paper.....smh

If this were Mayweather it'd be DUCK, KFC FLOYD, *****, COWARD, etc... Transparent haters.

You want to know what being a warrior is all about? Survival~ A real warrior would not go into a tough risky battle if they could go a slightly different route. A warrior is not just going to fight the toughest fights, because that is not always required to win the battle. Always why I thought warrior was a terrible word to call a boxer. A true warrior attitude is winning a fight in the cleanest way possible no matter what the crowd does~ that is surviving and advancing. Perfect description of Bernard Hopkins.

says the khan fan :lol1: khan's been trying to get the money fight since the last 4 years now, you are accusing him of doing what khan's been doing all along. maidana/thurman is a close fight, people are just hyping bundu levels above where he really is I do think Maidana beats Thurman, but right now it's not looking good on him with the whole ducking thing. It sucks for Maidana because Thurman is a big puncher, but brings neither money nor a name. So, it's a tough one.

After all the talk about Khans hand speed festival and scintillating boxing display isnt it brave of Maidana to want to fight him? :lol1: The general opinion was Thurman didnt rise to expectations vs Bundu, he won every round but played it safe. Him vs Porter would be a good fight.

He has never been a warrior, just a coward that stupid fans worship. He has always ducked big fighters, or even fighters such as Timothy Bradley. Maidana is a pu$$y, nothing else.

maidana was supposed to be this warrior who fought everybody. Everytime this warrior steps up he loses. Boxing guru Robert Garcia said during the mayweather fight that maidana would fight in a backyard for free. All of a sudden when thurman is mentioned he becomes a prize fighter. Now he wants a khan payday lol. Khan is not only a more lucrative fight but also better for Maidana's legacy. Khan like it or not is in the higher echelon of fighters just below Floyd and PAC.

Make peanuts fighting a nobody or headline a potential ppv? No ****en brainer. Who is he going to headline a PPV against? He's an Argentine fighting in the States coming off two losses.
