@ WW who do you guys favor in this match up between 2 power punching sluggers? Could Cuevas break Maidana or can Maidana bum rush Cuevas? I could see both guys getting knocked out, honestly.
Cuevas. Maidana is crude and wildly overrated. He got his ass kicked by glass chinned Amir Khan, and barely scraped by a fat, ancient Eric. Morales. Cuevas is the much bigger puncher, as well.
Pipino brutal KO, in a short but very exciting war. People forget how devastating Cuevas was at his peak.
I honestly thought he had significant improvement. The thing was that he was fighting Mayweather. Then he retired straight after. Not really alot to go on. I think if he'd rematched Khan he would've KOd him.
Brilliant albeit short fight. Maidana would make a brawl out of it, which would lead to him being KOed, but he'd make it exciting. Cuevas KO4
I can do the same. Jermell Charlo - 0 losses by stoppage Julian Jackson - 6 loses by stoppage Wait. Jackson KO2.
I don’t think Jackson would ko2 Charlo. The point is Maidana and Cuevas would probably have a drawn out war, which Cuevas would probably win because he actually defended a championship several times.
What an incredibly stupid rationale. Just dumb as Hell. Pre-Hearns, Cuevas easily had a more dependable chin than Maidana. A prime Maidana was bounced off the canvas multiple times by Ortiz and nearly stopped by Khan. What do you think one of the biggest punchers in welterweight history would do to him?
That wasn’t Maidana’s best and he wasn’t stopped. If you think Ortiz couldn’t crack and Khan couldn’t hook to the body, you’re delusional. Remind me who Cuevas proved he was one of the hardest 147 pound punches in history against?
