      Maidana's win over Broner made a Mayweather fight extremely marketable and for a fighter named "Money" it makes perfect sense.



      he was able to sell that fight to gullible fans based on that win

      I am a big Mayweather fan, but I was not impressed with that selection

      * Khan won the fan poll
      * Maidana was ranked #8 at welter
      * Mayweather was the current JMW champion

      not saying Khan was a good opponent either, just saying Maidana was left-field

      Mayweather had earned the right to select whoever he wanted at that point, but there were PLENTY of better opponents available

        The difference was that against Broner he was allowed to use punchers gloves.

        I'm not saying he would have KOed Floyd. But he would have won at least 6-7 rounds instead of 5, with his gloves.




        it is absurd to suggest that gloves would make a difference

        FACT: Maidana wore punchers gloves

        if gloves could somehow mean the difference between winning and losing... then there is OBVIOUSLY something wrong with the gloves

          Apples and oranges again.



          exactly

          plus, Mayweather nailed Maidana with just about every right-hand he threw

            Broner gave maidana credibility as an opponent and win for floyd.
            Pac beats broner at 40 and broner is considered a bum.

              Anybody that has boxed would never call competition 8oz gloves pillow gloves, they all hurt and all can KO anyone.

              Fanboys are such little yappers.

                There's no logic to that. Otherwise why would Mayweather pay Maidana 1.5 or 2 extra millions for him to wear another glove? does he like to gift millions?

                What an idiot. (as usual).

                  No, because they are legal gloves that many boxers (including Miguel Cotto) used for years, even against Floyd.

                  They just inflict a bit more damage to your opponent. The reason why Floyd didn't want chino to use them. If your hands can handle the less padding, they are better for you. If your hands hurt, you use another glove and lose a % of power in the process.

                    The punchers glove is glove marketing, statistics dont show an advantage, the fighters pick gloves on how they feel on your hands.

                    Floyd had fought lots of guys in the very same glove Maidana wanted Cotto wore them and I think maybe Mosley, the bottom line is the glove is a psychological thing as well as a nice fit, if there was a clear advantage to any glove they were all be wearing them.

                    Maidana came away from the fight saying he now knows why Floyd was the best fighter in the world.
                    That’s not true at all. Every glove make is different. Do some sparring with some Winning gear, then use some Cleto Reyes and tell me there’s no difference.

                      Fan poll aside, I had zero interest in seeing him fight Amir Khan.
