    I said Maidana wasnt good enough to blow out a fat old Morales, I give McCloskey every chance of a ud, Maidana isnt the best when it comes to accuracy or workrate. McCloskey could school him

    Maidana has proven he can cut it at the top level. He'd beat McCloskey fairly handy.

    McCloskey is a C level fighter.Keep him in Ireland were he can beat Eurotrash type fighters.

    And McCloskey has shown absolutely nothing other than against bums and past its. On his big chance to step up he lost every second of every round.

    Maidana is top 5 in the world at the weight.

    McCloskey is top 20 in the world at the weight.

    McCloskey could go the distance with Maidana, It just a question of how much he could land. I wouldn't write McCloskey out of that fight

    I think this would defintley come down to heart and chin for McCloskey and obviously has he got the power to keep Maidana off him .Maidana rocked Khan pretty bad so I think Maidana would probably force him to fight cause he's got to much power .

    Are you smoking crack?

    Morales is leagues above McCloskey :rofl

    McCloskey needs to sack his coach and employ a coach that will work on his defence! He was scared in that ring on Saturday! the first time he fought a world class fighter he shits him self! the funny thing is Khan was fighting at about 25% of his ability it would of been over in the 2nd if the week had not gone the way it did.

    Im not saying McCloskey can never be a world champion but he is a LONG LONG way off!! His defence is shocking and thinks because he is a switching southpaw he cant be hit! Complete ****** move! Maidana would finish McCloskey very early!

    To be honest, if anyone is living in a dream world it's you. McCloskey had trouble with British level fighters like Nigel Wright. When he stepped it up again against a Euro level fighter in Lauri he looked very poor. This is a faded version of Lauri that was destroyed by genuine world class boxers in Hatton and Witter when he was in his prime. When Paul finally stepped up to world class he lost every round. McCloskey hasn't shown any evidence that he can mix with the big boys of the division.
