Hahaha. You got it. Maidana is a c level at best.

Chino is one of many tough fighters Floyd has beaten. Pacs fans keep on talking yet your boy had to be awakened with smelling salts after 4 minutes by a guy Floyd toyed with. And Marquez is one of my all time favorite fighters. You're the worst boxing fan ever to back a fighter Pac fans. Thee worst.

I don't really see much of a difference between the two. They're both pretty even me.

What's the difference between Algebra and Calculus?

They both have numbers in them, x's and y's, +'s, -'s, division, multiplication, variables. I mean I don't get it, what is the difference?

Rios is a better inside fighter and better chin.....Maidana is more wilder rugged fighter and now with Garcia he actually can Jab and set up punches....something u will never see Rios Do. He can cut ring off to

Maidana moves much quicker in the ring too. He's a more agile athlete. Rios is more in the Brian Sutherland mould and is a little rigid and tight in all his movements.

Maidana bobs and weaves much better and can shift between a wide and narrow stance as he opens or closes the distance. Maybe I'm being unfair on Rios but I never think of him as doing either of those things for the most part.

Rios does seem like a more effective operator in the pocket though. I know Abril nullified him, but generally speaking he's more varied and more controlled than Maidana at close quarters. Pretty damn tough too.

Both are class c level boxer.

"Yo...yo, dog...w-w-w-what's the difference between a 4.0 and a 4.6?"

Easy Answer

One fighter fought one of the best in the world while both were coming off losses. This was considered a tune up for the best in the world because he was coming off a devestating loss.

The other fighter fought one of the best in the world coming off a career defining win against a "rising star" in the sport, which was a major upset and a fight of the year candidate.

Which is Rios and which is maidana? And which one of the best in the world gets credit for the fight?

The guy who fought the guy who claims to be a lottery ticket got paid less than the guy who works for the guy that "rips people off"
