Is Floyd advising team Bronner to avoid Maidana so that Floyd can fight Maidana?

[billeau2]

First props to a poster Trank who first mentioned the following scenerio in a thread. I think it is very possible. Floyd knows he could easily deal with Maidana. Floyd knows that a Maidana fight is a lot easier fight than a Kahn fight.

Knowing this one can only hope that Floyd is not advising Bronner in a manner that first and foremost considers Floyd's advantages and not Bronner's.

While it does seem correct to advise Bronner to go down a weight class, its kind of funny that Floyd advises Bronner to fight undercard at that weight and that Floyd seems very eager to fight Maidana!

I think Floyd understands very well that he will look like a king badass fighting Maidana, a guy who can be avoided, tied up, and hit with precise one shot counters, as opposed to Kahn who has some real assets that will test Floyd.

What do you guys think

MODS THIS IS A THREAD ABOUT FLOYD NOT BRONNER!

This isn't 90210, his future is not going to be dictated by a friend's agenda.

broner admiration's of mayweather is on some next level **** so you never know

[The Gambler1981]

Floyd doesn't need to go through that because he is worth more and is higher on the food chain. SO if he wants Maidana he will get Maidana over Broner any day.


Him telling Broner that would just be being nice so he does not have to get shown up like that.

i wouldn't put it past him tbh. after all this is a business. madiana's a real hot name right now, a fight with him would sell well after his last fight. that said, khan seems to be the most likely opponent next. i don't think maidana gets the mayweather fight next.

That's 100% correct. After seeing what Maidana did to his little brother Floyd won't fight Maidana. He could beat Maidana but he would take lots of punishment and Mayweather hates to take punishment.

That's actually possible IMO

After Floyds last interview with fight hype I think Maidana just might swoop in and take the shot from Khan.

To me, it makes a lot more sense.

Maidana has a belt, he punches hard, he's aggressive, he's coming off a great year and a big fight in upsetting the next big supposed star and successor to Floyd. Seemed to have a lot of fans behind him including Mexicans.

It makes perfect sense to have that fight May 3rd and will likely do better numbers aswell.

Surely they see this.

Do you actually believe that?
