Comments Thread For: Maidana: I'd Come To Beat Mayweather, Not Get Paid

[TLC8]

All They Need To Do Is Pay Boner To Step Aside & Give Maidana The Shot

Just make the fight. Boner doesn't want Maidana that bad and he's not ready anyway. Look at it this way, if Maidana beats Floyd, a rematch with Boner is worth a whole lot more money than it would be now. If Maidana loses, then Boner is out nothing; he still wants to avenge his loss. The problem is, Boner has bigger ballz than Floyd. Mayweather has had two shots to fight Maidana after Marcos destroyed Ortiz, and now. Floyd doesn't want that kind of risk.

Only problem with this is, Mayweather advised Broner NOT to rematch Maidana and instead Move down to 140 and fight on his May 3rd Undercard. he's stated this multiple times on record and in interviews. I understand you want Floyd to lose, but stop with all the make believe from thin air. Thats for children. Aint Nobdy scared of Maidana, LMAO. He got Spanked by Alexander beat by Khan and went life or death with Josesito Lopez for 6-7 rounds. Floyd Smokes Maidana if it happens.

Agree 100%. There's too many Floyd haters on this site that chose to avoid the obvious

Man Floyd haters kill me at times. Who said all they have to do is pay broner to step asid ? First of all, broner is one of the highest paid boxers that's not headlining PPV events, is not that easy to "pay him to step aside" plus he generates a lot of revenue so I'm sure GBP wants him to fight. Secondly, broner said right after the fight he wanted a rematch so he exercised his rematch clause. Marco destroyed Ortiz so now Floyd is scare of him..yeah, because Marcos is a bigger threat than canelo was right. We seen what happened there. If you want to talk about avoiding, Ortiz has been chasing a rematch with Marcos ever since they fought. Why haven't Marcos given him one? Exactly. All fighters pick and chose fights. Let's not single out Floyd when all fighters are doing the same

Broner extended your career. Be thankful that you're now in a position to defend your title and make more money in a winnable fight.

According to many prime has more to do with age than weight class. Also the talk of intangibles doesn't make sense. The only way to beat him is something we don't have a name for? Hes not a mythical dragon just a boxer. We've seen him face better versions of maidana. I for one would like to see something new

To me prime has nothing to do with age OR weight class. It has to do with when the fighters at their sharpest. Broner's prime was at 135 because that's where he looked the sharpest, unless he has a run later in his career. May's prime was at the lower weights where he was blastin people out. Khan is passed prime because he doesn't carry the same power as he used to and has looked consistently a shadow of his former self over several fights. Chino is at or near his prime because he has put up win after impressive win and has crazy momentum right now.

I agree Floyd is not a mythical dragon. Highly skilled, highly athletic, and highly composed.. but he is passed prime and any man can be got. We have not seen him face better versions of Maidana. Maidana is the heaviest hitting pressure guy he will have fought.
