      He can do things just running on the fumes of his Greatness.


      Period.
      If he can suck up another 5 pounds comfortably he could be the boss at lightweight.

        Maidanna looked slow and looked like he had not trained properly. He was terrible last night and looked pissed off that he was even there.

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.
          how many times have u seen maidana? maidana fought how he always fought and thats going in haymaker swinging like a banjo. wasted punches and punching himself out, thats his trademark, thats what he always have done, u not seen his previous fights such like vs papa corley and stuff.? i wud red K u but that avatar is hot i mite green k u actually not that u give a ****

            Certainly a good and easy payday for Morales. Go Terrible!

              no eay was that the usual level of energy that maidana brings,he was non stop at khan all the way through,he wasnt as fast furious or busy vs morales.

                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

                  Maidana may have taken a bit too much punishment in the Khan fight.... his chin seemed a bit worse for wear, wouldn't be surprised if he gets KO'd in his next fight....

                      I think the hype surrounding Maidana after the Ortiz win was a bit much, Maidana is a crude power puncher who can be outbox with average ring intelligence.
