Comments Thread For: Marcos Maidana: Broner is Stronger Than Mayweather

[Adrien Boner]

Broner is stockier and looks stronger but Floyd most likely has that old man strength that comes from doing the same stuff for decades.

I say Broner would put up more weight in the gym if I had to guess but I would say Floyd has better functional boxing strength which he has spent his whole life attaining.

Lil bro would punch a hole in big bros chest (if he could land) but big bro would not want to take one so he would outbox him and play it safe.

Personally, I see Mayweather beating Maidana, but the fight does have more intrigue than any fight Mayweather has had since taking on Cotto.

Unlike most of Mayweather's opponent's, Maidana is not likely to be discouraged from pressuring him. And, if their is any chance of beating Mayweather, it's with pressure.

I mean, for one thing, to beat Mayweather, you have to knock his ass out, because you won't get a decision no matter how lopsided the fight is in your favor.

With that, pressure is obviously the key, as is a consistently high punch volume.

Maidana brings both elements to the table. Not saying he'll win, but he has a better chance than most Mayweather opponents. And, in the very least, he'll make it interesting.

I know I'm buying, assuming their is a reasonably decent undercard.

Do you read? He said that Broner is STRONGER not better you gimp. Just couldnt wait to chime in and hate as soon as you saw the name Broner ah? Didnt evern bother reading, just dove head first into that hate

You have something on your face. You should tell Broner to be more careful next time. Then again, it's already a well known fact that Broner doesn't know how to treat his women, so it might be a lost cause for you to mention it to him.

Good luck, sister.

When did Broner turn into Julian Jackson? If he was that sort of powerful he wouldn't have had the issues he did with Maidana.

For example Broner could not clinch up Maidana and every time he tried Maidana just pulled away like he was pulling his hands out of a sink full of water, against Floyd I reckon he wouldn't be pulling out from his clinches so easily.

Which would be functional boxing strength that I was talking about~

News flash for some...Mayweather did not pick this fight because he thought it would be easy but he knows Maidana will do exactly as he say's and pressure him relentless which will equal a Knockout(TKO) for Floyd. That doesn't mean it won't be tough fight...it will be more entertaining that some might believe

He's right madaina . Most fighter don't bother going after mayqeqthers enough because they are scared of looking daft in front if a crowd coz he can make u miss but this is the mistake. To beat Floyd ur gonna have to look silly missing shots but staying on him and going for him fully committed. Floyd doesn't hit hard and this is why khan thought he has a chance. A good fighter will beat Floyd if he swallows his ego/ pride and go after him

Not really my opionion. I just love throwing out bait and watching y'all jump through hoops to defend it. Guppies are the best

I don't get why people think Maidanas wrong here

Its obvious that Broner is stronger than Floyd just by looking at his chest, shoulder and biceps muscles. I use to think he used roids. Punching power isn't even close

And the the only reason why Floyd looks strong in clinches is because he uses his forearm/elbow to control the head of his opponent and push it back. Everyone would outmuscle Floyd in a clinch if he wasn't allowed to do that (which is illegal in the first place but the refs let him get away with it due to Al Haymon)

Both weight around the same weight in the ring, for what it's worth.

Both Broner and Maidana are close to 160lbs on fight night. Mayweather is 150.
