    I'm not sure why Maidana's promoters haven't seriously tried to market him to a Chinese audience. These people turned out in the billions to watch Zhou Shiming. I'm sure the Chinese audience would love to see someone who can actually compete or win at the very top level.

    His nickname is Chino, it really isn't too complicated.

    Add Pacquiao into the equation and this could easily be the biggest fight in Asia ever.

    Totally agree, that fight in Macau would do huge business. It also seems to be a hell of a matchup from a fan perspective I don't know why there's been no talk of it. I think mannys team should get that ASAP before a rematch with Floyd is made.

    Maidana looks at LEAST half Chinese, and the rest Mestizo.

    China should adopt him so he can be the proud son of a billion more people.

    Ever heard Chinese people try to speak Spanish? Haha they'd have a language barrier for sure.

    Here we go again. Chinese don't like Pacquiao. Ask Rios.

    There's no way in hell a fight is gonna be made in Argentina ever again, the fans there are pathetic sore losers after the incident that occurred between Lazarte and Casimero , all fights should be banned from happening in that country for eternity and I mean it.

    It doesnt matter where it is.
    Maidona too strong.
    Pac too soft.
    Pac gets knocked the **** out --- worse than last time.
