Comments Thread For: Maidana in Line For The Broner vs. Malignaggi Winner

[TRTboy]

Would love to see broner-maidana, I wanna see how broner does with someone who can punch hard. We all saw how average he was against ponce. Broner is a brawler, he is just overpowering these little guys with his size and not worrying about anything coming back makes him look like a beast.. He can't box on his toes as effectively as people make it out to be.

Maidana-Broner would be a 50-50 fight.

Broner's going to get a chin-check.


Honestly though, it seems like Broner's testing both ends of the spectrum. A feather-fisted boxer and a heavy-handed brawler in two consecutive fights.

The Paulie fight is simply to get him to a marketable division and title in that division for future big fights since he is going to end up at welterweight anyway. Him and his team are confident in his skills to make the drastic jump.

Broner-Maidana would be awesome. I can get behind that.

Broner has never faced someone like Maidana. I'm with Maidana in that fight too.

Broner vs Maidana is a good matchup. I dont expect Paulie to take a Maidana fight if he were to get passed Broner.

easy work for broner. maidana was getting clocked by lopez because his defense is garbage. broners punches will be coming fast and hard. plus broner has good defense. i look for broner to stop maidana from an accumulation of clean head shots.

Nah. If Maidana gets stopped by Broner, it would be body shots. Maidana can take the head shots all day.

yeah that is some bull but you know "why" they did this...so Broner can easily get a belt @ 147 and GBP can market him better with easy work lined up for him the next years (Maidana, Guerrero, Ortiz) so when Mayweather retires they can sell him as the next "MoneyMay" (which is also easier when he KOs some opponents May didnt KO - look at the May - Pac history and what casuals said "oh Pac is way better cause he KOd Hoya and Hatton faster than May etc.")

mayweather isn't retiring, no one who routinely gambles millions on ball games can afford to retire from boxing

He's gonna retire one day. They all do. And even if by chance he doesn't, he will become irrelevant when he eventually loses his skills.
