Originally posted by Casual View PostHe took Morales lightly, and payed the price for it. Maidana lackluster performance didn't impress me at all, and was even lucky to get a decision from a fighter 25% of his former-self. Maidana made Morales look good, Morales is slow, doesn't have his reflexes anymore, and is well past is sell by date.
I can't believe people want to see Khan or Marquez fight Morales. They will pick him apart, Khan is way to fast for an old Morales, and Marquez is still a great technician despite his age.
Morales showed his age last night, but still has boxing ability and ring IQ. The physical side of Morales is completely shot, he looked ever so slow in there and doesn't possess the ability from years ago.
I'm taking nothing away from Morales, he impressed me to a certain degree but Maidana wasn't in great condition at all, and obviously underestimated a shot Morales.
Maidana has went down in my estimation. I really do think he made a mistake getting rid of his former trainer Diaz. Maidana will lose his next big fight judging from what I witnessed, so the downward slope starts here for him unless he drastically changes his attitude.

Maidana struggled with chop chop right before the khan fight. Khan had him gassed after 1. In the 10th he barely made it off the stool. Say's more about khan to me. Ortiz was beating his a$$ but didn't have heart to take his own punishment.
I have yet to watch maidana and come away impressed. Second old boxer that took him to the limit. With a loss in between. Can we finally stop with the maidana bad a$$ stuff. He isn't top 5 in any division
