It seems Maidana needs a break

[FromBA]

This boxing analyst (one of the most respected in Argentina) says today that Chino needs a break after his hard training camp for the Broner fight and it would be wiser not to fight Floyd next .

The expert points that the training camp was "more harmful" for Maidana body that the fight itself. He adds many people think Chino shouldn't go through such a hard preparation again in the short run.

From the Maidana point of view, the writer says, there is no need for an immediate Floyd fight to consolidate his status after his recent success.

A Floyd fight would mean big money and sporting glory. but it will be smarter for Chino to take an adequate rest and postpone negotiations for the 3rd May card, the article concludes.

Maidana May not get this type of opportunity again if he does get the fight

I'm with you. I can't imagine there will be a more fitting time for him. Unless he has an amazing 2014 and increases the demand that is...But for now it seems as though people are mentioning him and Floyd in the same sentence more than they maybe ever will...

If this is true it proves one thing; Floyd's people have reached out and are working on a fight with Chino

If he gets offered and doesn't take then goes and losses he will regret it for the rest of his life.

Funny how all these other options from Golden Boy are suddenly so hesitant for a Mayweather fight. The conspiratorial side of me would say Golden Boy is telling them to go away so Khan gets the fight.

Only Danny Garcia has said no for the moment. Devon lost even Porter is better than Khan Amir somehow is more marketable right now. Which only leaves Maidana who some people say Floyd prefers but we will see.

By the time May 5th comes it will have been almost 6 months since he fought Broner, 4 months rest and 2 months training isn't enough time?

Exactly this guy is moron. Maidana can rest up, take the biggest payday in boxing, lose graciously and retire. Fighting Floyd or Pac in a PPV is the dream.

He's not a moron. This article also suggests another thing: they are not thinking in a big payday for a good retirement. This would be a "loser" point of view. They are thinking in something much bigger, even in seriously challenging Floyd if the fight takes place in the future.
