    How do you rate Marcos Maidana?

    Is he a better fighter now after his two bouts with Floyd Mayweather, Has he learned from those fights or has it taken something out of him

    Do you rate him as a top 5 Welterweight or do you rank him lower

      the man never trained properly or had a trainer prior to robert garcia

      he has improved as a fighter but he takes training seriously now

      the man would is a tough fight for any welterweight and would beat most. id favor him to KO pacquiao if they fought.

        Hes ranked way to low by the ring. 9? You give Mayweather his hardest fight in years, and have 4 impressive wins leading up to that and you get shelved at 9? Robert Guerrero is ahead of you? PLease.

        I think current Maidana walks through everyone at WW but Pac and May. Bradley fight would be good because hes tough and athletic but he can also be drawn in to wars.

          I have him ranked #9 at welterweight.

          Pac, Marquez, Brook, Floyd, Thurman, Alexander, Rios, and Bradley all beat him at 147 IMO.

                how would bradley beat him if ruslan almost made him into a human vegetable?

                please explain

                let me guess "bradley would box doe"

                  He's probably hovering around 5. Mayweather and Pacquiao are the easy top 2, and after that there's a bit of a logjam between Marquez, Bradley, Maidana, Brook, and Thurman. At least that's my IMO.

                    Floyd and Pac are 1-2 obviously. Thereafter they just need to fight. Maidana/Thurman/Brook/Bradley/Marquez/Porter/Khan


                    A lot of people put Bradley and Marquez at the 3-4 spots but they aren't fighting other welterweight contenders.
