Comments Thread For: Marcos Maidana Open To Face Khan, Not Thurman

[bojangles1987]

So every time Maidana loses, he shouldn't fight Thurman because he's coming off losses. Every time Maidana wins, he shouldn't fight Thurman because he deserves better fights.

This is why guys like Thurman get screwed, boxing fans allow it.

Surely It makes financial sense for Khan to fight Brook if not Floyd.

Exactly, Khan isn't rematching Maidana. He actually has much better options than Maidana. I guarantee you Maidana doesn't have much better realistic options than Thurman.

Maidana needs to STFU and move out of the way. He didn't just get one big money fight -- he got two. He performed admirably in the first fight, but the second wasn't even close. He wasn't even in the same zip code. The fact that he thinks he can get Pacquiao next, or Khan, or -insert big name here-, is laughable.

I agree - I was dissapointed in the second Mayweather fight.

It did look like Maidana just turned up for a payday.

I am a Chino fan, Mayweather was as good as he is going to get.

Maidana is clearly ducking Thurman. But apparently that's ok tho. Smh at boxing fans.

Shameless duck

It's pathetic and I wish Maidana would be honest and just say he's only interested in the lucrative fights. It's like he'll flirt with the idea of Thurman but deep down not want it, all that self entitlement for a fighter who's coming off two loses. Khan's matchmaking and the fact that he already beat Maidana tells you all you need to know about the possibility of this fight not happening.

And the thing is, he got it twice. Every single fighter out there and their mother is begging for a Floyd fight, because it's the most lucrative fight in the sport. And he was amazingly able to get two of Floyd's six fights on his Showtime deal. I respect the hell out of Maidana, but just because you got a Floyd fight and lost -- doesn't just entitle you to nothing but big name, big money fights for the rest of your career. Just like everyone else he needs to earn it again.

Dude won the lotteryy his bum ass was bout to retire than he got them 2 paydays damn

[uthmaann]

You know damn well Khan will pull the diva act with Maidana considering he beat him once. Didn't Thurman win close to a shutout just like Khan? What's the difference? Khans face was even more lumped.

The difference was the level of opposition. ****** question.
