This isn't the first time that someone has posted a recent pic of Maidana where I think, "Oh, he's not looking too bad". Then, I realize, the OTHER guy is Maidana. That's how unrecognisable he's become to me, and I've seen all his fights over the last several years.
No, there's nothing wrong with Marcos Maidana's physical condition. He's just happy, rich, retired and fat. Believe me, once he needs some more money, he'll shed those excessive extra pounds off very quick.
You must remember that Floyd Mayweather, Jr and Al Haymon made him a very wealthy man. He earned about $ 6 mil in two fights with Mayweather; That amount is a fortune in Argentina.
So there's no imminent reason for him to get back in shape at the moment because it's not like he's coming back to the ring anytime soon.
In case you've missed the last 50 years or so of health research, being obese is bad for your health apparently.

I understand that. All I am saying is that this behavior is very common among prize fighters. So there is no need for fight fans to push the panic button just yet because the weight gain is only temporary.
Back in the day, Roberto Duran used to balloon up to more than 50 lbs between bouts, once he received that paycheck and quickly got himself back in fighting shape once it was time for him to collect the next one.
