It seems Maidana needs a break

[John Barron]

screw what writer says

don't see Maidana turning down a $4-5 million payday

i don't either. this fight will happen if mayweather wants it.

[WarMaidana]

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.

thats how these fighters should be thinking but you got these ****ing clowns that want to cash out after one fight... some of these cats are just cowards

Maidana has more to gain than lose by fighting Floyd.

It wouldn't surprised me if Maidana loses next year, especially with Thurman as his mandatory, and the Floyd fight would disappear. He should take it while he can.

Thurman was shocked by Chaves and Soto Karass. He might KO Chino and anybody else, but more likely Chino puts him to sleep.

Something new. Chino has been interviewed by a newspaper from the province of Santa Fe. The complete interview will be tomorrow in the press edition, but the paper has published a bit part on the web in advance.

"Mayweather is not invincible", Chino says. "You have to put a lot of pressure on him, in a similar way I did on Broner, and a bit more too. You don't have to respect him. And you have to be well trained".

Well, this somehow seems to "compensate" my previous post. I agree that Khan is a crappy fight and I would like Chino in a ring with Floyd. At the same time, I don't want to see him there not ready for a win. I'm going on vacation now so I see you all in some days...

If this is true, and he doesn't want Floyd next, this is the second fighter that voluntarily removed himself from a fight with Floyd. First Danny Garcia, now Marcos Maidana. I guess these fighters are allergic to getting paid.
