Marcos Maidana fires back at Keith Thurman

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

Maidana is done so I could care less about Maidana vs anyone.

[Damiens]

So just because he moved in a couple of fights while winning every round he's a guy that lacks heart and chin now? The man has never been down before, and moving does not indicate lack of heart, it just shows versatility, he can move he can counter he can ****, he can do it all, maybe not A level but still I wouldn't say he lacks heart or chin as of right now, but a fight with Maidana would tell us a lot about him though.

Him moving doesn't show lack of heart. The fact that he looked troubled, refused to throw back, AND started backpedaling when he promised a knockout shows a lack of heart. He seemingly gave up on his ability to stop the B- level Bundu who can't punch worth crap. What will happen when Maidana applies higher level pressure with much more heart than Bundu and much more firepower coming his way? Thurman will stop throwing back, get trapped against the ropes (let's not forget Maidana can cut off the ring extremely well) and Thurman will start getting beat up until he gets stopped.

This doesn't even make any sense, Bundu may have made things confusing with his constant switching, may have made Thurman rethink his attack but that didn't stop Thurman from winning every round so there was never an incentive to change his approach and go for the knockout. Thurman himself explained this.

Ducker talk from Maidana, but then he isn't even running the account so...

Maidana needs a tune up then I would love to see this fight.

I have to lean on Thurman but it wouldn't be an easy night.

These two should definitely fight, I want to see it so bad but I'm not sure Keith Thurman is keen on it... If you get hurt badly by Luis Collazo I don't know what could happen If you have Maidana raining down on you for several rounds without quit.

That was a nice body shot and Keith recovered quite well, it was really the only round he lost and then proceeded to make a tough veteran quit. We can say a similar thing about Maidana, he's been hurt by Khan, Ortiz, Broner, Alexander and even Lopez, now imagine Thurman connecting bombs. Nonetheless, it's a great fight if Maidana can get back into looking like an actual fighter. I think Maidana would test him but I just can't see him taking too many big shots from Thurman.

thurman takes this.

he's the more athletic versatile talent.

that much is obvious. if he can handle chino's power he takes it.
