Maidana doesn't even have "punchers chance"

[-=Shade=-]

if maidana isnt coming just for the pay day, if he is actually comign to win and bring the heat this will be a good fight. But Maidana definately needs to keep his foot on that pedal, get relentless and dirty

I wouldn't say dirty (or at least not 'dirty dirty'), so much as don't give him an ounce of deference or respect.

Does the TS know what a 'punchers chance' is?

It's the very definition of what Maidana has - next to no chance except perhaps to land a big, possibly 'lucky' punch. It's boxing, anyone with a decent punch has 'a punchers chance' even against the best in the world.

I think Guerrero is a guy you could say has 0 chance, but for some reason more people hyped him up then they are Maidana. Literally no one but his fans are giving Maidana a chance. Doesn't really make sense to me. What did people see in Guerrero's style that made people think he had a chance?

I'm seeing more and more post like these more often.

It appears to be a covert way of acknowledging Floyd's greatness, yet hoping that by some heavenly miracle the opponent (in this case Maidana) finally hands Floyd his "0".

floyd is a great fighter. he doesn't have the praise of "taking on all comers" but his skill is unquestioned. I in no way expect Maidana to win this. If I were a betting man, the only boxer I could see beating Floyd is Keith Thurman if Thurman is moved a little quicker against 3 solid opponents and then fights Floyd for his 6th and final showtime fight. Even then Mayweather would be the favorite but One Time wouldn't be quite as green in September 2015 and Floyd would be older. It would be a perfect fight for Floyd to cement his legacy and walk away. Wishful thinking though most likely.

it wasn't so much guerrero it was the fact cotto made floyd look like he was on the decline and then floyd had the year layoff and the stint in jail time. the perception was guerrero might be able to outwork floyd with a body attack to get the decision on a rusty mayweather. now with floyd fighting twice a year he is sharp and is less likely to "show his age".

it will take more flush shots than maidana's skill set will allow him to land is the gist of the point i'm making.

He's tenacious, and he is relentless. That's all we can ask for, Floyd is going to get old in that ring one night...may happen May 3rd. Pun intended.
