Rumours are Maidana is announcing retirement.

[Bigg Rigg]

Textual words:



Translation: I think I'm retiring, I don't want to fight anymore. It's almost decided and it doesn't depend on anyone. Maybe in the near future I will announce it officially.

Made that big money from the Floyd fights and called it a day. **** it. The first fight was great but that second one was trash.

[chaposinaloa]

He should keep fighting. No way he stays retired.

[285Kid]

He should keep fighting. No way he stays retired.

One phone call from Canelo/Oscar and his back for May 2016

[lefthook2daliva]

Good on him.

He fought his ass off in every fight and made himself enough money to retire well.

Cong**** to El Chino if he calls it.

[loci]

I don't feel pain. Soy indio.

[Weltschmerz]

He earned it, got the double jackpot. I could see myself do the same in his shoes.

I don't follow the fighter's money trail....but I would like to know what did Chino net in his two fights against Floyd?!?....did those two fights set him for life?

[New England]

Is this a legit source? If it is and he is retiring good for him he most have made great $ from the Floyd bouts

he made a lot of money and he's retiring in argentina, where i'm sure he can buy a lot of land and property and live without working for the rest of his life. a million dollars in argie goes a heck of a lot longer than it does in manhattan, or las vegas.


the beef down there is unf#cking real. second highest mountain range in teh world. beautiful women. absolutel gorgeous girls down there. rolling farms in the valleys. good wine country. argie is paradise, from what i hear.

well, in the first fight i truly he was paid off over the gloves. made a 1.5 million garantee, IIRC, and ppv upsides are raraely, if ever, made public after the buys come out.

then he made 3 million in the rematch. again, not sure about ppv money, but floyd's obviously taking the lion's share of it.


add those paydays with all of his purses from the past in main events, such as alexander, khan, lopez, ortiz [think that was a main,] others, and he's a very, very wealthy man in argentina.

[New England]

Sucks if true..


Maidana leaving a lot of cash on the table.. He should have been this era's Mayorga and be the b-side to every major fighter and get paid well.. Mayorga fought forrest twice, mosely twice, tito, cotto, Oscar, n Vargas..
Maidana should be cashing out vs guys like
Manny
Marquez
Canelo
cotto

Or even
Khan 2
Bradley
Thurman
Brook
Lucas
Porter
Danny

Tons of big money fights left for maidana

have you seen him lately? he's massive! he's been eating that world class argentinian beef. those guys eat more beef, per capita, than any other nation. nobody comes close! chino has been fattening on that grass fed beef.

he's not getting back to 147 lbs, lol. it would take him a year to lose the weight. he might never lose it. he might make 154, but even then he'd be doing most of the work just losing weight, and his style isn't good for fighting bigger gys.

i respect his decision. he's made plenty of money for a comfy retirement.
