    Jesse Vargas "I dropped maidana in sparring"

    He says he sparred with him for the Morales fight and he toyed with him, soteam maidana started putting retrictions on what kinda shots he could throw.

    He also says Floyd tried to discourage him from sparring with him because he was convincedhe will land a fight with him soon....

    Thoughts?

      I doubt he would make that up but i also doubt that Maidanas team would put restricitions on what punches he could throw.sparring maidana with 16 ozs and headgear is one thing fighting him with 8s and no headgear is another

        He didn't say he dropped him. He said he had his legs shaking or something.

        Here is Maidana's immediate response on twitter:

        @LIITRBOXING if he said that he is a lyer, he cannot punch at all!

        Look at Jesse Vargas's competition and KO ratio. I think I believe Maidana.

          its sparring. it probably happened. maidanas not even that good in actual fights. i can see how a fighter with vargas' talents could frustrate him.

            yes he is, which is why it was so dissapointing to see Ortiz lose to him. He couldn't even beat TWO washed up fighters in Corely and Morales convincingly.......

              Maidana getting dropped isn't really surprising.

              I'll be more surprised when someone stops him one of these days.

                  nothing really...its sparring. so i dont get the bragging. i think ppl who dont box are too impressed with what occurs in sparring. when fighters spar, they are usually trying to work on things they arent good at or that are new to them, so these things happen. even to the best like floyd, pac, dlh etc.

                    Fans always overrate fighters with POWER because fans (ESPECIALLY CASUAL FANS) think those guys can just go out and Knock ANYBODY OUT...sure they can...BUT THEY ACTUALLY HAVE TO LAND WITH THAT POWER...if they can't then they usually end up losing by UD

                    I like Maidana, he is tough and relentless...but he can be out-boxed...once again I consider him the Arthur Abraham of the 140 Division, if you can avoid his Power...YOU CAN OUT-BOX HIM EASY! I think even Jesse Vargas can get it to the cards and get a win over Maidana, he is just too Robotic and Slow especially at 140 in a division that has a lot of young fighters with SPEED
