    H didnt look bad for someone that weighed in at 165 on fight night for the first fight. Would he feel better if he is lighter? who knows but as long as he doesnt drain himself too much.

      If it improves his stamina - yes. I dont think Chino can KO floyd, even if he will be at fight night like 170 lbs, so coming in to the fight too heavy doesnt make sense for me.

          yah maidana didn't look 165lbs on fight night. mayweather looked close to about the same size as maidana.

            Can't get the gloves so just let the power aspect slide. doesnt need it anyway seeing as he said he cant feel floyds punches. the awkwardness and the speed is what got floyd last time. i think its a great idea to get maidana as light as is healthy for him.

              His only advantage was the weight so dont know why they would want him coming in lighter

                Sounds unrealistic to me and even if it's possible I'm not sure it's healthy and/or a good idea.

                  Garcia stated that the reason they came in Heavy was for an advantage, well that didnt work and he was tired, why not try something else. Except if he couldnt hurt floyd at that weight he's definitely not going to being lighter. So go for stamina and see if that gives you an advantage, what have you got to lose that you already havent

                    Maidana has floyds number.
                    Cant wait to hear the excuses that floyd lost on purpose or
                    Let him hit him again for the fans.
                    Dont respect pillow fist floyd and mix your boxing with fighting
                    And floyyd is on the ropes again in fight two with more energy to chop him down

                      he wants chino to be able to sustain the kinda pressure and pace he had in the first few rounds for longer so he wants him carrying less weight ... don't think he'll come in that low though ... high 150s should siuffice.

                      imo floyd doing so well in the later rounds was at least as much to do with maidana flagging off as it was any alterations that floyd made.
