    I agree.

    Floyd looks good because of his recent 'competition'

    Nothing has changed since the Cotto fight

      Gotta be this week. Wouldn't be surprised if it's today.

      **crosses fingers for shock Mayweather-Marquez II announcement. Glad to settle for Maidana though.**

        I think it's more to do with the fact that both of them are natural boxers and fight at a slower page.

        Maidana doesn't he's going to force the fight with power in both hands.
        He has painfully slow feet though. Ricky Hatton could at least cut the distance with fast footwork. Maidana looks like he's walking through quicksand.

          I agree there but I don't think stylistically Maidana compares to his last two fights other than all three being slow of foot like you mentioned.

          Guererro and Canelo are both boxers and counter punchers by nature.

          Maidana atleast won't be a slow paced fight from start to finish which was the main reason Floyd found his last 2 fights so easy.

            At this point it is getting ridiculous. I get that floyd/sho like to tease the announcement and let the anticipation build, but really. Just accept the fact the khan fight shouldn't be made unless you are giving it for free on CBS (and even then it shouldn't get made), announce Maidana, put Broner and Mares on the card and lets move on.
