Comments Thread For: Broner vs. Maidana: Showtime Wants To Get it Done

[Ringlife]

I would like to see this fight happen next. I favor Maidana in this one if it does happen hopefully this fight gets done.

[SoulByThePound]

But I thought the fans picked Lucas, an he said he's fight who the fans picked

Read post 13, if youdont agree with that then ask lucas himself why he is ducking broner and fighting garcia instead. Does that make sense? NO!

it's not a 50/50 fight. Maidana pretty much has a puncher's chance, but that puncher's chance is better than usual because Maidana is heavy handed

Spoken with true ignorance. Maidana has much, much more than a puncher chance. He should be favored.

Maidana by vicious knockout inside 8. Broner's a hype job, he has no defence which isn't a great flaw to have against a murderer like Chino. As soon as this gets announced I'm sticking all my points on it.

Agreed. Not all, because I never do all, but my points are all over Maidana as well.

Why should the much superior infighter show more/ or any kind of movement, Maidana isn't even someone I classify as a good infighter, he's a pretty good mid range fighter with good power, but smothering him; defending against his attack shouldn't be difficult for Broner. I hope we get this one signed, I don't know whether people are going with their emotions or not...but stylistically this is too easy a match up for Broner.

The much superior fighter is Maidana.

The way people post about Broner on here you would think he fights like a Floyd mayweather with amazing footwork, movement and defense. To me Broner isn't busy enough and if he stands and turtles up after throwing 1 or 2 punches like he did vs Paulie it would spell disaster vs Maidana.

Broner is getting far too much praise on these forums, hes got one good win vs Demarco and a decent win vs Paulie which was close. I keep hearing things like "Maidana won't land a shot" and i find that bizarre.

I agree; but, remember, there are some powerful people backing Broner.

Expect controversy.

Those powerful people won't help him when he's on his back staring at the ceiling

I thought the winner of Malignaggi-Broner had to defend against that undefeated South American kid??

I would rather see that than this. Maidana is the man but he shouldn't be fighting slick boxers. Broner by wide UD, I don't want to see this one.

So much for I'll let the fans pick...
Carry on cherry picking Adrien Broner, very pathetic but I will give Maidana a better chance of winning this.
We have to remember Devon Alexander is better than AB.

i thought boner said we could pick his next opponent !!!! well the fans picked maytesse by a landslide !!! why is boner ducking and lying !!!!!!

I like that fight too. but for real you did not think that showtime are goldenboy was going to go with what the fans want. That is not on Broner he is not writing the check.

Strange. Broner just fought some week ago and Showtime already talks about his next fight.

What happened to the Matthysse/Garcia fight?
