Comments Thread For: Floyd Mayweather-Marcos Maidana II: The Right Choice

Yes!

Yes!

I'm real happy with this fight. As I was with the first fight. For all the hating I do on Mayweather, I got to give it up, He's taking some difficult fights.

And we're somehow at Manny?

How about the fact everybody is busy?

Canelo is fighting this month.... how you gonna fight, then have another training camp and press tour right away?

Cotto is obligated to fight Rubio, they don't even have that worked out yet.

Porter has a mandatory that has been put off for like 2 years over 2 different champions.

Khan already said he can't fight in the fall... he didn't spring this out of nowhere

Thurman... yea he could fight Thurman... good luck with that on PPV though. Just like Abregu for Pac... expect Mayweather is the one with the big money deal with the network, so he's under more pressure to produce.

I'd rather see Floyd fight Thurman then this rematch.. I doubt it could do any worse in PPV buys then the Maidana fight that they never bothered to release to the public. Thurman is a MUCH bigger threat then Maidana IMO.

Pacquiao isn't qualified to fight Mayweather because his cuts are still not healed, and that outdoor stadium in Vegas still isn't built yet.

and pac wears reyes gloves ha ha ha ha

I dont see how so many people enjoyed the 1st fight.It was garbage.Floyd spent all night moaning like a little girl but I still had him well ahead.I had Chino winning 3 rounds at most and thats being generous. He barely landed a thing all nite. Was throwing wildly like a bar room brawler.Cant understand how anybody who has a pair of eyes thought he won.Floyd knows full well its another easy nights work where the 0 certainly wont go. Would much rather have seen him fight Thurman or even give Khan a shot. I for one will not be paying anything to watch that tripe again

Kinda Cute....FRAUD don't do Business with Top Rank's Fighters.....

Brilliant way to PUNK OUT, yet again, to AVOID Pac the Man....

[ADP02]

The right Choice?

What, no polls this time, Floyd?

another roadblock coming!

[Emon723]

Thurman vs Abregu please, winner fights Maidana if he beats Floyd, both these two deserve a shot, unlike Khan, who keeps talking about fighting this and that but will probably go after another Collazo type of an opponent while waiting for Mayweather.

I'm not buying this, but I'm glad Maidana is giving Floyd a rematch.


Hopefully he can wear the gloves approved by NSAC

Hopefully JMM will give Pacquiao a rematch and take the drug test approved by the NSAC ( let the commission do their job )

FYI:

"Maidana wanted to wear a pair or gloves that had been approved by the Nevada State Athletic Commission but Mayweather objected. The gloves were considered better gloves for a puncher and Maidana is known for his power. So the sides made a deal for Maidana to change gloves the day before the fight.

Although neither side would disclose the terms of the deal -- or even admit that there was one -- sources with knowledge of the situation told ESPN.com that Mayweather agreed to pay Maidana an additional $1.5 million to change gloves. That doubled Maidana's official purse, which was $1.5 million on his Nevada contract. However, sources told ESPN.com that Maidana was guaranteed $4.2 million and wound up earning at least $5.7 million, including the payment for the gloves change."

If it's true that Mayweather paid Maidana to change gloves this further feeds my lack of interest in watching a supposed rematch or any other Mayweather fights in general. (The guy was big, but he chose to end his career in an ugly manner.)
