Comments Thread For: Garcia: Maidana Earned Mayweather With Broner Win

[mrlopez]

BULL****!!!!!!! AB is my man and all. But beating doesn't "earn" you ****. In the welterweight pecking order you have Floyd on top. Then the Bradley, Pac, JMM group. Then you have the Porter, Guerrero, Alexander group. And then you have the Malignaggi, Judah, Thurman, Soto Karass, Broner, Maidana group. Nice win for Chino. But he needs to move a lil higher up the welterweight foodchain before you "earn" a shot at Floyd.

Theres been a lot of fighters who didnt deserve to fight Mayweather and did. Maidana is a ww belt holder so he has a case to be considered. So you are putting these guys you just mentioned ahead of maidana? porter? alexander who just got beat porter? guerrero who got beat by floyd already? judah, really? thurman i think has a case cause he has a belt but he's in line after maidana! soto-karass just got whipped by thurman didnt he? and broner who just got his as.s handed to him by Maidana? the pac, bradley jmm group i can understand, but chino should be right after them!

Hey, if AB was that easy to beat the first time. Chino should have no problem "dominating" him and "humiliating" him in the rematch. And putting himself right back in line for a Floyd fight in Sept. Hell, that's smart business. He supposedly got a pup about to drop. Hell, an easy payday with Broner and a mega payday with Floyd in Sept should get him up quite nice.

I think if chino beats the swag out of broner, again, then the fight should happen with fmj

I agree. Obviously at ww-tim, jmm, and manny, are ranked ahead of Maidana. Tim and Manny are better ww opponents. Expanding to 154, Lara would be better than Maidana IMO.

So i think he is the 4th best option overall and the 2nd best of whose available.

This right here!!!!

The truth is that Maidana is the first fighter that have shown a convincing way have to beat the mayweater stye of fighting.

Maidanas relentless attacking, throwing looping right hands from up high, and explosive combination punching, is exactly have you destroy the phillyshell.

Every time I watch Floyd fight I keep yelling at the screen saying that his apponent needs to do exactly what Maidana did

In other words Floyd will never fight Maidana

ive been saying the same thing....i think the way chino fought broner would give fmj problems for sure!!!! mayweather will be forced to fight in a way he doesnt like. i think it would be one of his most exciting fights tbh

Floyd/Broner comparisons are juvenile and naive. Broner doesnt even maintain the shoulder roll style for an entire fight. He reverts back to orthodox whenever he gets uncomfortable.

James Toney = shoulder roll king

lol, no, they don't. The only similarities besides being dorks, is that they are Black. They fight nothing alike.

Keep telling yourself that

Boxing experts and most of the boxing world were saying that broner was floyd 2.0, basically a floyd with more power and aggression, then Maidana ragdolled him and now suddenly floyd fans are on damagecontrol

I know Broner aint floyd, but what you fail to understand is that the both roll and counter in a very simlar way, Maidana`s unik style just happens to be very effective against that style, for several reasons.

I already pointed out Maidans relentless attacking, now I know you floyd nutsuckers a completely deluded, but there is no denying that a surthen Castillo was about one **** hair from handling Floyd his first loss.

Well Maidana does everything Castillo did, better

Maidana best weapon is his looping right hand he throws from weird angels, against broner he threw it from above, bingo, the only way to hit solid on floyds head.

I am baffled why you can't see the logic in that

Floyd's counter punching and pot shotting are the reasons his opponents don't recklessly brawl like Madaina... They get gun shy after a while because he has tremendous accuracy... Floyd May not have a lot of power but he has pop in those punches... After awhile they start to hurt... Madaina is way too slow and not skilled enough or Floyd... Easy UD just like Canelo... After the fight you'd claim he picked a weak opponent in Madaina, even though today you say he'd never pick Madaina because "he has the style"...

the difference: Broner has used the "floyd" style for 2 fights. Floyd has used it since he was 11 years old. The difference in experience and expertise using the "style" is significantly different.

The other difference: floyd fought Castillo in his 1st figt at the weight. Castillo's size advantage was a factor, as it was in Maidana v Broner. Against floyd. Maidana will not have such an advantage, in additon to having a far shorter reach.

So while I understand your point about style you are not considering the differences in expertise and the mechanics between floyd and broner.

Yes beating a career lightweight, who was handed a WW title controversially earns u a Floyd fight

Julio Diaz>Broner

[junior gong]

This is what I can't understand about you and yo d1ck in the booty ass homegiels. Ya'll get on here and basically stalk everybody that doesn't hate the ground Floyd Mayweather walks on. But the only threads I can find ya'll in is Floyd threads. Ya'll pop up in Manny threads. But eventually turn it into a "Floyd's scared of Manny" thread. Ya'll pop up occassionally in GGG's threads. But eventually turn it into a "Floyd's a p.ussy and will never fight GGG" thread. Ya'll talk about folks being Floyd d1ckriders. But ya'll ride his d1ck more than anybody. What's up with that???

Now try that again....this time in english.

[SUBZER0ED]

Calm down Garcia. All that win meant is that Broner was way too overrrated. There's still several WW better than Maidana.

Maybe, but is one of them named Amir Kahn???

[kmas-ski]

Well, my thing is that I think people are overrating the Broner win. The reality is, hype aside, Broner was a fringe welterweight. He was one that got a lotta press. He was one that had star potential. But his accomplishments had him slotted a fringe welterweight. So when I look at Maidana, who was a fringe welterweight himself heading into the fight. It was just a high profiled fringe contender match-up.

Personally, I don't think Khan or Maidana has "earned" a shot at Floyd. In a perfect world, he would be fighting Bradley or Pac. And if not one of them, I'd say Danny is probably the most "deserving." But none of those fights were available to Floyd. So personally, I'm fine with, but excited about either guy. Personally, I'd rather he be fighting Lara. But I don't view Floyd as a jr middleweight. And I have no problem with him being selective about whom he fights above 47. And if its not an opponent that's gonna do significantly beter numbers the whas available to him at 47. Why bother???

Best post on this entire board! No finger pointing just an objective pov!

Go to youtube and type in "Khan vs Maidana."
