Comments Thread For: Marcos Maidana Wants Broner, But Not For Short Money

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Top welterweight contender Marcos Maidana (34-3, 31KOs) is very interested in facing WBA champion Adrien Broner (27-0, 22KOs), but only if the money is right. Maidana will not allow himself to be disrespected by accepting a fight with Broner for short money. If possible, Maidana would rather not face one of his countrymen, Diego Chaves or Lucas Matthysse.

It's fair enough really - and he has earned his position to ask for a decent purse.

I agree with the money ( as long as it's not outrageous) but screw not fighting your countryman.
That deprives the fans of good fights.
Just like when Viloria didn't want to fight Melindo or any other fellow Filipinos.... fuck that

"I need more money to fight Broner" - Maidana

Translation: "I know this guy will knock me out within 6 rounds, so I'm pricing myself out as a lot of guys who want to avoid fights do today"

You know exactly what that means. Did he ask for more money when he fought Khan? How much does he think he should get. He knows when he gets KO'd his career will be heading downward. These guys talk like they really want to fight Broner but in actuality they don't because they know what they are gonna get. A beatdown

I don't agree with that at all. I believe maidana would beat broner and he does deserve a huge purse. This coming from a huge broner fan. Maidana has earned his right to a big payday. If I was him I would beat Lucas and fight money in the spring. That's how I would market him if he can beat Lucas which I think he can.

Oh yeah cause Marcos has a suspect chin and Broner showed so much power against Paulie...just lol man, so amateur

Had Broner said this, there would be about 500 posts by now talking about how he's a ducker, cherry picker, coward, etc, etc, etc. The double standards continue to amaze me.

Don't be a Penis rider. Maidana has the resume to dictate terms and because broner is must see tv doesn't mean broner is Floyd mayweathr and can bark out terms. Broner has t done a damn thing to dictate anything. Maidana is must see tv to me
