    How is a contender overrated you fool, nobody overrated Maidana , throughout history an average contender gives a great a hell of a fight it happens all the time, and if you know anything about boxing its because the contender rises 10 fold for their greatest opportunity and the great is going through the motions.

    Maidana did better than Manny against Floyd because he had nothing to lose and didn't freeze up like Manny did lol.

      A lot of people rating him and wondering how Khan beat him. Like Oooo how could glass chinner Khan beat Maidana? Because Maidana is a B- Level crumb catcher.

        manny beat floyd ,not sure if maidana beat floyd, maybe in the first fight but manny didn't freeze, he just outboxed floyd and landed the cleaner punches. i know it was unexpected that it would play out that way but floyd just didnt have the clean punches to win that fight so manny picked him apart safely, just like floyd would do but when manny does it, he froze? i guess floyd froze in most of his fights too!

        floyd was just overrated and the person who knew that most was floyd, thats why he never fought anyone in their primes, of course floyd was way past his prime as well in the maidana and manny fights so i dont put too much stock in them doing well against him. floyd had a chance to make some great fights in his prime and he baldomir'd it

          No it was because Maidana was a hot and cold guy, they have the ability but not the dogged determination and work ethic to complete the package every fight.

          Maidana stopped Lopez who when passed it nearly stopped Thurman and then Manny beats Thurman over 12 in a split and then loses to Ugas,,,,, can you read the form, do you understand the greats are greats because of how consistently they are in top form, while lots of solid fighters are hot and cold.

          You guys need to see more boxing with somebody that knows telling you what's going on as it happens, even better go and box I guarantee you will see things differently.

                did manny not land the cleaner punches? did that grazing air jab really do it for you? go back round and round and count the clean punches...floyd didnt win it and floyd had no quality at all even if you count all his lil grazes as clean(not sure how a graze can be clean definitionally)

                also what great fighters in their primes did floyd fight? i dont see any. some good fighters like corrales and castillo(lost the first) but everyone else was not a huge threat at the time he fought them. thats what sucks about giving up your prime to take easy fights, you cant get it back at the end of your career because you can no longer compete with the best and essentially have to cherry pick just to win., but the cherry picking in his prime was disgraceful. even if you thought he actually beat manny with his graze punches, it still amounts to meh

                  No Manny did nothing and lost clearly the world majority knows it, only Manny taint lickers think differently.

                      It too bad Maidana retired immediately after the Floyd fights

                      we didn’t get the chance to see just how good he is

                      Maidana Thurman
                      Maidana Danny Garcia

                      would been good fights
