Comments Thread For: Maidana Confirms: Knocking Broner Out Was The Strategy

[Bronx2245]

Maidana wont land on Mayweather, but Pacquiao would. Floyd will take the Maidana fight for sure but he will contiinue blaming everything from steroids, retirement, Bob Arum, previous losses and money of all things for excuses to avoid Manny.

Floyd didn't just call Manny out, he called him up! Manny turned down $40 Million dollars, which he is yet to make without PPVs. Whose last 3 opponents have been more impressive? Manny or Floyd's? If you think it was Manny's, then you don't know boxing.

since floyd is being a big vagina about the pacquiao fight, the next big threat is maidana. khan should get a spot on the undercard, but no way does khan get to leapfrog past maidana after his subpar performance vs julio diaz. khan can fight broner on the undercard to prepare him for what floyd might look like. . but with pacquiao out the picture, there is only maidana who can present a threat, he has the power to keep floyd on his toes, has the chin to absorb whatever floyd lands so theres no way in hell floyd knocks him out, he has a better skill set than the maidana who lost to khan, hes on a 4-0 winning streak and its the hot button topic of boxing nowadays after beating broner. . only thing people keep bringing up with khan its his fast hands, past that, he brings nothing else, he will be timed and stopped late. to even hang with floyd the fight must be ugly, canelo fought a ''pretty'' fight trying to counter with floyd like an idiot, castillo, cotto, augustus, oscar, and hatton all made it ugly fights and had the most success, a fighter like floyd cant be allowed time to think, the opponent must sell out and bull doze him to the ropes and maidana although may be slow but has deadly power in both hands.

Mayweather vs Maidana

Undercard : Broner vs Khan
Thurman vs Malignaggi

Maidana straight sent Broner to his bedroom. Any of you good folks remember Floyd saying a while ago and i quote "Amir Kahn has to beat Jessie Vargas before he can fight me" he said that s hi t a bunch of times. Would he fight King Carlos Molina? He wouldnt dare. Not even at 152!

Maidana is good and will certainly try to make it rough against Floyd, but he'll have as much success as Canelo did. He'll certainly miss a lot more than he did against Broner.

He'll have much more success then Canelo... Canelo isn't an aggressive fighter, Maidana is. It's going to be a Jose Louis Castello type fight, and I personally think Maidana is going to do great.

I think Maidana can do what Cotto did to Mayweather, and better at that. War Maidana. Most likely floyd wins... But, I've never bet against Maidana in my life and I'm not going to start on floyd. I personally think floyd is going to avoid this fight, and there going to through Maidana in the ring with Thurman and keep him busy with real tough fights.

Floyd hasn't impressed me lately. I mean, the way he wins is great and all but his level of opposition is real lackluster. He just picks up the perfect opportunities in there. Fighting a junior middle weight at a catch weight ( a junior middle weight who barely makes weight). The Ghost fight is hilarious. He never deserved that fight, and never really was good to begin with. It seems that anyone who beats Andre Berto is in line for a great fight, Ortiz, Robert etc... Hatton, That's laughable. Baldimer is Laughable as well. It seems Mayweather manages to avoid fighters at there best and catches them on there way down or when there already way off as fighters. I.e Cotto, and Mosley. He avoided a margarito fight, Paul williams was out of the question, Sergio at 154 lbs is out of the question, Pacquiao is totally out of the question.

Floyd Mayweather just jumps at an excuse he can as if we are all idiots. "I won't ever do business with Bob Arum" Which really translates to "I'll never fight Time Bradley and Manny Pacquiao."

Mayweather is a fraud. We have to face the music. Nobody cares if you have 45 wins. Two questions... Who'd you beat? And what was the situation. Aside from Diego Corrales and Canelo Alvarez (which he should only get half credit for) he hasn't really done anything to talk about in the decades to come. I don't care about Payperview numbers, or what car he drives. I'm a boxing fan, and I care about boxing.

I'm not anti slick boxing fan. In my top five are Terrance Crawford, Andre Ward, And Benard Hopkins, and that's because they fight anyone. I also love Pacquiao and Maidana. I think there both skillful in there own right and there very entertaining. Movies are made about men like them, a floyd mayweather movie would be s hi t

Floyd is ducking Maidana

Maidana mentally broke Ortiz, the former "future" golden boy cash cow, Maidana decapitated Broner, another "future" cash cow, Maidana had Khan doing the chicken dance and running, maidana has a belt, mexican support for PPV, hes not too young, hes not old, hes not mentally weak, hes been headlining cards for 4 years, if hes not a worthy opponent i dont know who is, but i guess its ducking time for the duck master Floyd:bukkake:

What a bunch of nonsense. The last two sentences probably the least true of them all. You aren't a boxing fan if you believe any of that nonsense. Everything you said before this goes down the toilet when you talk out of your anus. Corrales and Canelo are his best wins? That alone means no one here should listen to your posts or do anything but red you for taking up space on NSB. This garbage of a paragraph is so void from reality it's not even worth considering as a valid opinion and thus not worthy of respect.

Since pacquiao wants to fight in April and don't have the balls to fight mayweather on the biggest date in boxing with the MGM grand already reserved. Then maidan a will do.he put a beat down on browner so he does deserve the big mayweather payday. Money vs chino.

40m is a joke offer for a fight of that size. Since Arum is cut out of the promotion, Pac would have to give up 27% to him, then making what he makes normally for the biggest selling fight of all time?! GTFO

Maidana did what every fighter should do against ( Whitaker, Mayweather, Broner )

NON-STOP PRESSURE. Once you decide to try to outbox a fighter who is as smart or smarter and faster than you, that's when you lose. Pressure is the key. That will have them either on defense all the time or have them take chances and thats when they can get punched.

It's easier to pressure a guy like Broner who's static. Alexander used some movement and lots of holding to stymie him totally.
