Maidana doesn't even like boxing, he does it because he's good at it...

[Luilun]

He should probably never fight again, although he can still make a couple more good paydays which it would make sense for him to take.

I would say boxing is very much a game of desire as opposed to talent, once that desire to endure is gone, continuing to fight no matter the guys level of talent is generally a mistake.

True that was the down fall of Mike Tyson

He's "good" at it?

Since when?

Since he won two world titles and won 5 rounds vs the greatest fighter of this era.

It is just a natural human things, if you achieve your goals there is a natural fall off. Once you achieve what you want out of something in life there is really no going higher in that area.

Very few people have that level of greed to constantly keep striving needing to do more especially in a tough cut throat field. That is why guys like that should be celebrated.

However, really if a guy does their thing and finishes that is nothing to look down on either because that person can actually enjoy their success in a way the greedy person never will.

It is why greed is both a blessing and a curse, it can lead to the most success but if you always need more how can you ever really enjoy what you do have?

5 rounds in two fights maybe.

5 rounds more than you and most.

He probably didn't watch Maidana fight since the Devon Alexander fight.

Eliminate the opposition, Floyd is a clever dude.

[Dean_Razorback]

its not by accident fighters are never the same after mayweather. its not because mayweather knocks them out or anything its because these fighters put everything into it mentally emotionally physically then they come out and mayweather completely dominates. you cant underestimate what that does mentally to a fighter they are probably completely drained of motivation after that.

floyd won both fights but he didn't look dominating at all, especially in the first one, and trust me, maidana doesn't care about floyd, floyd couldn't mess with chino's head.
