Comments Thread For: Photos: Marcos Maidana Grinding Down at Media Day

You guys miss the point. Chino is in a T-shirt and it's three weeks before the bout. Obviously, he's having problems getting into shape. Last time I seen him he had a gut. He wore the T-shirt so no one would see his body. He will make 147, but will be completely out of shape.

What was this guy thinking? Maybe that he needed the extra weight. Or just maybe that Floyd (cherry) picked him and Chino did not have the time to train.

I wonder how crazy the arena would go if one right hand by Maidana puts Mayweather on his trunks?

Chino has remarkable likeability. Even Mexicans, who tend to hate Argentine athletes get behind Chino Maidana. I expect many of them to show up and support Maidana.

I imagine it will be bonkers in there if that happens. I know I will be running up and down the isles if MGM grand WHEN it happens.

Anyone who says a fighter has zero chance against another on any given night is a sweet science novice, not a prognosticator.

This for sure. A logical post, for once. When anyone says Maidana has "zero chance" in this fight, it reeks of lazy, armchair fandom. Anything can happen in boxing - the right punch can land on just the right spot of the head/body; the wrong dodge/duck/slip/feint/parry can be made; shocks do happen.

Mayweather UD is quite safe to say, sure, but I'm not gonna start getting cocky about a prediction like that. A human being in a combat sport can be beat - any human being.

Yeah, but anyone who says Maidana has a change is an idiot! The guy got outboxed by Devin Alelxander and A Mere Con. Victor Ortiz has the guy down three times.

Let me asked you a question, if you fought my three-year-old daughter, would she have no chance against you, or better yet, would you have a chance against her?

This is one of the most idiotic posts I have read in a while on here, wow just wow.

We can certainly take any fighter in boxing and exploit his flaws to say why a fighter won't win. But upsets do happen.

No one thought Tyson would lose to Buster Douglass. No one thought Roy Jones would lose to Tarver by KO, or Rahman would beat Lewis. But it happened.

Not saying an upset will happen here, but to say Chino can't win, is insane.

I got money that your daughter wins by ko

The Mexican homies always playing around saying " a chino is gonna beat Mayweather! is it gonna be PAC or Maidana?" Do any of you guys agree?

What, you don't think you could take out my daughter?

He was getting his ass kicked in sparring, we just didn't know that at the time. A three week training session? That reeks of not taking your opponent serious.
