Why Is Maidana So Disrespected By Floyd Fans

[dc3383]

I want this fight Khan has no business in the ring with Floyd. As far Broner it's his fault he loss he should have been more serious about his craft.

Cuz Maidana has the blueprint on how to beat Floyd

The key is simply touching or feinting a jab to the body and come over the top. Mosley did this against Floyd and almost knocked him out but stopped doing it for some reason

Maidana threw almost 1000 punches and isn't afraid of floyd's feather fists so he can win on volume alone.

Go read my posts in Khan threads I'm far from a fan, go read my posts in the Broner-Maidana threads I supported Maidana. So you're wrong on both fronts. Guys with much faster feet and hands can't catch Mayweather so Maidana has zero chance ,it's as simple as that, Maidana would never get close enough to land anything. Khan P4P has the fastest hands in the sport and puts punches in bunches which what a fighter needs to catch Mayweather. It's just a better style match-up.

Fastest hands in the sport? You sure talk like a fan.

But Maidana is a handful in the clinch, judging by the Broner fight. Floyd even stood in the pocket a few times against Ghost and Canelo. Maidana also has surprising range and interesting angles. Maidana ALSO has an iron chin and lots of power. He will land, I know that much.

Khan will get rocked by Mayweather counters as he flails aimlessly on shoulders, arms, and air. Mayweather would also surprise people by being FIRST in that particular matchup, walking Khan down.. Making khan gunshy, and put him on his bike.

Different fights... May defending against Maidana, and the aggressor against Khan. At the end of the day, Maidana, currently, brings more to the table than Khan, and I'm counting intangibles as well.

Pretty much every Floyd fan was also a Broner fan and they're still upset.

That's kinda ****** logic....I'm a fan of Floyd's, but have always loathed Broner...in fact, I was glad Broner got beat up by Maidana.

Except for me...I was beyond annoyed by that motherfucker. I was jumping up and down from the opening bell.

What a beat down!

Calling him a bum and a c fighter?

Why? Cause he doesn't dance around and pot shot? Ive always said this, and will continue to say that Maidana is one of the most underrated fighters in the sport of boxing. Especially now under Garcia. Awkward unorthodox fighters seemingly get no credit on here. Martinez even now doesn't get full credit from a lot of people.

He outskilled Broner at almost every point in his last fight. OUTSKILLED.

Floyd fans like Maidana and very few actually like Broner, but the fact is that he is a C level fighter. Broner was a samll dude moving up and he is overrated. He cannot transition offense to defense and got beaten.

I will say he has def improved. He actually used a move Floyd has been using for a long time on Broner and it was the most effective move he used all night. He jabbed Broner to the body consistently, and then when Broner became conscious of the shot, he'd throw low and turn it up into a left hook o the head last second. He drilled Broner with it constantly. So he def has some new moves.

The real fans on this site, the ones with a clue who aren't just band wagon hopping and acting like emotional females just recognise a simple truth. When it comes down to Khan or Maidana, Maidana is cannon fodder for Floyd. Khan might prove to be, but of the two he is the one who has the necessary tools to trouble Floyd.

maidana wasn't the slow plodding, face-first, brandon rios type fighter broner and everyone who picked against were expecting. even paulie seemed pleasantly surprised throughout the fight.

marcos used faints and the jab to close the distance and fool broner into left hooks. he did quick lateral movements to get an opening of adrien's shell defense and he surprisingly fought well off the back foot too. it was a great all around performance. if maidana's stamina wasn't so patchy, i don't think the fight would've gone the distance.

Except for many.

Many Mayweather fans, myself included, don't like or aren't fans of Broner.

Maidana is a huge style mismatch and would likely be a 120-108 shutout... they're not in the remotely same skill level. Khan might win a couple rounds at least but either way they both lose. It is what it is though. Maidana isn't a skill boxer hes a tough guy with a good punch. There's not really many other ways to put it.

It's curious how some people keep underestimating Chino. They are ready for a big surprise...
