Robert wants Chino to be 150,152 at fightnight.

[RetroSpeed05]

He wants Chino to be faster, but anyone else thinks the weight could be more of a advantage? He was 165 in there first fight.

Part of Maidana's success in the first fight was due to his 18 pound weight advantage. Or was it 15 pounds? I forget.

150,152 is far too low I think. The weight/strength advantage is key for Maidana. He should come in to the ring at the high 150s/low 160s.

[Beercules]

I think it's a good idea. That was the heaviest Chino ever came into a fight if I'm not mistaken.

155-160 would be ideal IMO

[kiaba360]

Being heavy is what allows Chino to absorb just about anything that Floyd throws at him. 150-152 seems too light, maybe 160.

[Jc8804]

Nope. Robert and maidana know this

1.maidana is stronger either way and hits harder and he can take floyds shot better then floyd can take his

2.no fear of floyd , no butterflies, knows his speed and timing .

3.they want and need more stamina and are making proper adjustments.

4.floyd is trying to play mind games with team maidana instead of showing respect and going to work. He is known to be insecure when he speaks to much. The fans wanted this fight not him. We pressured him into making him think he possibly lost
(I had it 6-6 draw)

5.floyd payed him to change his gloves (1.5 million)

Whats next he has fight bare foot or with constrution boots and 16 oz sparring gloves.

Agreed, anywhere between that is where he needs to be.

Ariza already confirmed Maidana's fight night weight was bogus, they weighed him with clothes and shoes on.

[rors_mc]

maidana coming in at 150 or 152 is a bad mistake , his weight advantage is all he has , i think floyd hurts him bad if he comes in weighing like that .

[Kagami Taiga]

If he came in that light, he would be drained. Seriously bad idea. U don't just make guys shrink and think there wont be consequences. Maidana isn't built to he that type of fighter.
