Comments Thread For: Maidana: I Don't Believe Mayweather Wants a Rematch

[mrjoeblive]

and are all standard fight gloves made the same exact way? do you think i just made that term up right now? everlast and reyes market them as such. they have a different distribution of padding and are constructed from a different material from let's say for example floyd's pillow padded "orthopedic" grants. the only thing they would have in common is the weight of the glove.

what the hell are you on about? you made a ******, misinformed post about the glove issue and i simply corrected you.

these are "puncher's gloves" btw,



the same kind broner and TMT fighters wear.

maidana can't wear them doe, healf comes first, they gots no padding doe.

the type of gloves you wear dont matter if you caint hit your target. marcos just wants another huge payday, the type you get from fighting floyd. i dont blame him for wanting another mega payday. but these dudes that are making excuses for the loss marcos took need to just stop.

so what you're saying is that maidana did not hit mayweather at all?

"maidana never hit floyd flush", "maidana never landed a punch", "it wasn't close" the more you guys say it the more it becomes true!

floys shot he wont fight khan thats for sure even maidana has his number, floyds lifestyle has caught up with him.

Yep. The not drinking and being a gym rat is taking its toll. It'll get him fat like Duran.

[John Barron]

mayweather never got hit.

Nobody wants to see a rematch. Second, why wouldn't you want to rematch Khan, a man who beat you?

No one thinks Maidana beat Khan though. Its a case of Maidana knows in his heart he was robbed.

No they don't, lmao.

Of course many think Maidan beat Floyd. This is no Bradley v Pac first fight scenario

so now we give rematches based on being polite??? this is boxing not whos got the best manners. if he is so big on getting a deserved rematch, why does he not give one to broner?

But Broner got a beating and nobody thinks Broner beat Maidana. Floyd acknowledges many think he lost to Maidana so was pretty offering Maidana the rematch or wanted to avenge his loss to Maidana like he wanted to avenge his loss to Castillo.

Mayweather has nothing to prove. He won the fight this time and will easily win the next time; In a much less dramatic fashion if the two shall ever meet again. However, I tip my hat to Maidana though, in giving such a spirited effort even in defeat. He was allowed to cheat and fight his kind of fight but still lost. Now it's time for him to either move on or retire.

I really can't see anyone out there for Mayweather besides Maidana except Thurman or Danny Garcia. Cotto won't be ready to go (if he wins) in September. Canelo/Lara can't go in September. As far as I know, Porter has to fight Brook, and Khan says September is a no go due to religious reasons. I'm cool with the rematch or Thurman!

I think the ones talking down a rematch are fearful for Mayweather. True story. May will only get older and Maidana is set to peak in his next couple of fights. Those who believe Floyd's ready made excuse of fighting that way on purpose are very gullible. Floyd was in full flight in the 4th and Maidana still caught up to him.

Floyd was maneuvered to the ropes by a combination of jabs feints and cutting off the ring. I can actually see Maidana performing better than the first time in a rematch.

I agree with this. I don't think Maidana won the fight, and the draw from one judge was very generous to Chino. But, for the reasons stated above, a rematch could be different.
Regarding what some guys have said about Maidana rabbit punching Floyd - if a ref was to take points away from Maidana for doing that in a rematch it would cause a riot in the stadium and a storm outside, imo.
The way Floyd uses that "philly shell" defence - leaning into the opponent as well as pulling away - it's almost impossible not to "rabbit punch" him if you throw those chopping, Chavez Sr style hooks the way Chino does.

[IronDanHamza]

He will take it since everybody thinks he lost. Floyd said after rematch "since everybody thinks I lost I want the rematch". Now he is probably scared because he got OUTBOXED by Maidana with SPARRING GLOVES. Imagine what will happen with normal fight gloves.

45-1. Nothing he can do to change that.

That's not what he said at all.

And 82% of people thought he won.

I don't really think mayweather is interested in a rematch either maidana wasn't intimidated at all by the so called next level he didn't even know who leaned ellerbe is and gave no respect although it was a close fight and mayweather won but I don't think he wants any part of maidana again that guy is tough.
