Comments Thread For: Garcia: If Maidana Hurts Mayweather, He Will Finish Him

[BoxingIsGreat]

Opponents have conceded before when facing Mayweather, they start to lack confidence and don't want to get countered, Maidana ain't that guy, nor was Hatton and this is exactly why I see a very good chance of a stoppage.

Very good post. Agreed.

Maidana couldn't get Broner out of there after having Broner hurt several times during their fight, so how in the hell does Maidana think he could get Mayweather out of there if he hurts Mayweather. Garcia and Maidana is starting to sound like the 45 victims Mayweather has already defeated as of late.

Maidana is going to come out looking to destroy Floyd early and try to jump on him and hurt him. The longer the fight goes, the less of a chance Maidana, or any fighter for that matter, has of hurting or beating him.

Hatton, Shane, Judah, Oscar, etc, all did their damage early with Floyd but as those fights wore on the less competitive they became.

Don't be late to the party!

its the right game plan. the only problem is that floyd has never really faced a fighter who was physically and mentally capable of following through such a game plan.

prime pacquiao was the closest and that's gone for good.

plenty of fighters have had the physical prowess to do this plan, like canelo recently but they dont have the mind game part down.

The key is not to outthink or outbox floyd, you dont outbox and outhink a master boxer.

The key is to make into a war and force your physicality and aggression on floyd and catch him when he's on the ropes or throwing. Canelo had the size, strength, power, youth but decided to try to outbox floyd.

******.

Cotto was a physical threat to Floyd and even Floyd said that was his toughest fight. Shane Mosley hits harder than Chino and Shane couldn't get Floyd out. Floyd has a nice chin. This boxing and anything can happen but like Brother Naz said "Floyd is cut from a different cloth."

Agreed. I hope you're prepared to see a pizza-faced Maidana.

If Pacquiao were fighting Maidana, the Floyd-worshipers would be on this site saying that Pac is fighting another come-forward punching bag. Now that Floyd is fighting him, Maidana is a threat if he hurts Mayweather?

Let's be serious here. Maidana lost 10-0 to Alexander..would have lost 12-0 if it were a 12 round fight. Maidana doesn't move his head; he'll be vulnerable to every punch Floyd throws. If Floyd uses his legs, Floyd can win 12-0 or stop Maidana. This fight won't be competitive.

Before the Broner fight, imagine being asked to pay $70 for this fight?

That's prime Mayweather who had much faster feet and was way more agile...

Mayweather vs guerrero 2

If...
this is the guerrero mistake all over again.
With a more expensive undercard.
Someone dropped the ball, mayweather and al haymon are smart, May usually fights in Mexicans holidays with mexicans and they put a Puertorican in the undercard. Broner's fans are mayweather's fans he brings nothing to the table. If this is the most expensive boxing card ever, the super bowl of boxing, will be an economic failure. Boxing is becoming more like wwe.

I wonder if Garcia knows that making a generic statement like that just makes him look like a self-serving publicity wh0re.
