Mayweather vs Maidana II POST FIGHT DISCUSSION

Garcia and Conte confirmed it. Also, Conte is advising them on strength and conditioning regimens. For instance, never before has Maidana or anyone in Garcias gym used hypoxic masks before. But Conte has almost all fighters he advises using it. So Donaire used it, Judah, and others. But to you guys who have no idea, you think Maidana just got that mask and idea out of thin air.

I scored the first fight a draw.
Floyd has had a full twelve rounds to work out what to do with Maidana now. He wins the rematch comfortably.Comment

I can't see Floyd having a comfortable victory vs Maidana, it will be just as hard as the first, if not harder. He isn't fighting a man that will freeze at the moment like Canelo and RG did. Maidana will bring his bad intentions and aggressive game plan just like the first, Floyd at 37 looks to dictate the pace and have a slow easy nights work but won't be able to against Maidana (especially early) like he did vs Canelo and RG.
If Floyd out right dominate and wins comfortably like you say, i'd be surprised, impressed with Floyd and if i'm being honest a bit disappointed in Maidana.Comment

hypoxic masks are PROVEN to be bull****. they are fronts for drugs.Garcia and Conte confirmed it. Also, Conte is advising them on strength and conditioning regimens. For instance, never before has Maidana or anyone in Garcias gym used hypoxic masks before. But Conte has almost all fighters he advises using it. So Donaire used it, Judah, and others.

conte is not a s&C coach. conte is not a nutritionist. conte made a living off selling bogus supplments aka snake oil (ZMA) and designing steroids and BEATING tests. that's a fact.Comment

I'm not arguing against the masks being crap, or his supplements being garbage. My point was just to explain that he was officially hired as Maidana's strength and conditioning adviser. Even if in reality he is unqualified.Comment

Maidana's gameplan shouldn't change drastically just refined.
Although we're talking Robert Garcia, wasn't his corner advice to Donaire vs Rigo
"throw more punches" (it usually is his best line right?)Comment

I don't know what this means, is that supposed to be a slight on Garcia? In case you dodnt' already know this, trainers largely give minimal instruction and more than anything try and encourage the fighter and give him confidence, and keep him focused, the actual in depth strategy goes on during and before training camp, you can't really put stock into what a corner says to a fighter during the course of a fight, it holds no weight whatsoever.Comment
