    Maidana landed plenty of shots on Mayweather, when El Chino lands a looping one it is game over for Brook especially after being stabbed in one leg, he will be going down quicker and for less than Sergio Martinez.
    I agree with this. Boxing fans are so ****ing fickle its not even funny. Brook has done nothing in th long term. Porter did nothin long term. Maidana has done it long term and improved while at it.

    I'm victim of it at times to but quit being so ****ing fickle. Everything we know and have learned says Brook gets murked by Maidana until further notice.

      I don't see Maidana giving Brook a better fight than Porter did.
      That's absurd. Porter is all aggression with little boxing abilities. He put up a joke of a performance against Brook and showed no ability to adapt.

      Chino utilizes a jab to push his opponents to the ropes, and has shown to do a much better job of setting up punches with the jab. He has far better variety in his punches and the awkward angles he provides makes him a much more difficult opponent. His movement is also better than Porter and on top of that he has a much better trainer at his disposal.

      I honestly see this is as a toss up fight with Maidana having a slight edge due to his power and more proven track record.

        Brook is bigger than Floyd with more power and good skills , Maidana wont charge like a wildman against a bigger man , that windmilling might look like its doing stuff but its not going to win unless your lucky to get a bomb to land which is hard when he is smothering not only Floyd but himself as well , I wouldnt be surprised to see Brook stop him , but Maidana has definitely improved greatly since Broner .

          Boxing ability... Porter can't even throw a jab!
          Maidana must be the most underrated boxer in this site...
          Brook...the one Carson Jones beat up once?

            Karass - C level fighter
            Martinez - E level fighter
            Lopez - C level fighter
            Broner - blown up lightweight, B- fighter

            Hardly impressive.

              Porter is too small for the best guys at WW .

                Disagree with pretty much all of that amigo.

                For starters, Porter is better than he showed against Brook. Porter has a better jab, footwork, sets up his shots better etc, he didn't show it against Brook but he has shown in the past.

                Maidana is one of the most overrated fighters in boxing and definitely the most overrated at 147. Like someone on here said before, his best wins are losses. He loses whenever he fights a top opponent.

                  Porter is huge at WW, he's probably the biggest WW. Guy apparently walks around at 175 atm and according to Rashad Holloway used to walk around 185+

                    Iirc Josesito Lopez hurt Maidana and had him in trouble, there was a late turnaround in that fight.

                      Just like most of Chino's opponents. His style makes it tough for him to dominate because he gets hit so easily.
