Comments Thread For: Broner is Open To Facing Maidana After Malignaggi

[Rome-By-Ko]

I like this fight,and I would give Broner major props for taking it..If he wins it,even more props..

iron will and a ton more experience than broner. maidana has been in a lot of wars, sure he's been hurt but he's never been stopped either. he's a great test for broner.

Great test but an easy win for Broner if he fights with his head and not his heart, if you can't beat Maidana then you have no right to be anywhere close to the top. Maidana is a limited fighter period, he is overrated IMO because he has power, am not undervaluing him but his limitations are there for any boxer than can box to exploit at will. Experience is all good and am sure Paulie Malignnagi would tell you he is more experience than Broner or been involve in wars but that for me doesn't mean he would give Broner a hard time.

While I agree that Maidana is limited..He has gotten a lot better,he actually has a jab and cuts the ring off pretty good as well..I could see Broner having some issues with Maidana..Remember it's not really in Broner's mentality to move so much..He try's to do the Mayweather,but nobody is as good as it then Mayweather..Maidana would get through with some of those shots..I have tbh I would really like to see this fight if Broner get's past Paulie M..

This is a good match up for Broner and one that will get him some credibility from his critics.

I like the technical progress shown by Maidana in his last fight. I'm not sure it's enough to offset Broner's better skill set.

That said, Broner is not a defensive specialist and he would be tasting some Maidana leather. I want to find out if The Problem can weather adversity.

Broner would have easily outboxed the old Maidana... This one is different... very intriguing fight.

[FromBA]

The main problem of the Problem is that he has fought just nobodies and weak opponents. Now he would be thrown against a beast, limited, but extremely dangerous. The only guy who plainly beat Maidana was Alexander, in a quite special fight: Maidana first time at WW, his new trainer ill and fighting in Alexander backyard. Maidana beat Kortelnik (he was robbed) and Khan won on cards, but was almost knocked out. Both Khan and Kotelnik ended with disfigured faces. I don't think Broner would be more lucky.

I like Broner by UD. Maidana can be outboxed and Adrien is one of the best pure boxers out there right now. It would be interesting cuz Broner does stand in the pocket so Maidana will have opportunities to land. Whether or not Broner can take those punches is the question???

??? Based on what?

Chino Knocking out Broner and winning the title would be one of my favorite Boxing moments of the year if it happened. Unlikely but its possible.
