Let's say Team Maidana are as mentally disabled as spoon and his ilk. He would be spending the rest of his career fighting truck drivers in Argentina. No major promoter would want to touch him after that, if he would do that to Showtime what would stop him from doing it to HBO? We've seen fighters exiled for years for much smaller offenses. Something tells me being a hero to Floyd haters doesn't pay anywhere near as well as a Mayweather fight.
    Career suicide? More like career win! that is f he levels of the playing field.

      Yup. He should stand his ground.

        Floyd doesn't need punchers gloves to do his thing. Plus Floyd won and never made such a big case of it mattering the way Maidana has been doing.
        Floyd's move is BS. He takes Maidana's main weapon away from him yet promotes Maidana as a KO artist ......
        Precisely. Taking someone's main weapon ain't that unsportsmanlike conduct.

        Well said.

          Yes, Maidana should stand his ground. Floyd has no other fight out there that will make him money except fighting Pacquiao which he won't. So Floyd is left with Maidana.

          Knowing that. Maidana can play hardball and on the day of the fight he should just surprise Floyd into wearing his punchers gloves. Floyd will have no choice but to go through with it. The pressure to continue would be for him to just go with it. (that is if its not written in the contract which I highly doubt it's not written). Just my wishful thinking working here lol

          I hope Maidana can play this tactics and blind side Floyd for the coward that he is on the day of the fight.

                  Naah, we all know maidana will not flush all the millions down the toilet. But that doesn't make it right. It just ain't fair game.

                  Not having to choose your own glove choice is an act of unsportsmanlike conduct. Only a coward will do that.

                    Floyd is the biggest number 1 boxer in history. Have we ever considered the top guy in this sport a p*ssy the way most of us look at Floyd???

                      Many of your beloved fighters have done the same thing in the past.
