Undefeated Top-Five welterweight contender and the pride of Argentina Carlos Abregu blasted his fellow countryman and WBA inerim super lightweight champion Marcos Maidana for his continuous litany of excuses for not fighting undefeated WBO junior welterweight champion Timothy Bradley. Abregu is training at Gleasons Gym in Brooklyn in preparation for his 12-round welterweight rumble with Bradley, which will take place Saturday, July 17, and will be televised live on HBO Boxing After Dark from The Show at Agua Caliente Casino Resort Spa in Rancho Mirage, Calif., beginning at 9:45 p.m. ET/PT (delayed on the West Coast.) Lady Maidana and his promoter keep changing their tune," said Abregu. "First Maidana cant fight Bradley on June 19 because of a back injury. Then he cant fight Bradley on July 17 because the same injury still has not healed. Now they claim it wasnt Maidanas back that was injured but he is having difficulties with his manager. It seems the ache in his back has migrated down and become a giant pain in the ass to everyone. Prescribe these guys a few doses of Truth Serum! As citizen of Argentina, Im embarrassed to call him my countryman, continued Abregu. Even though I was the only one who stepped up to fight Bradley when he first landed a date for HBO debut, I stepped back to allow Maidana to unify the title, but he wouldnt even risk his own belt when the fight was first made. Well after I give Bradley his first professional loss, Ill be more than happy to give Maidana the same opportunity to fight me at welterweight so he can keep his precious interim title. Because that is all he will have left after I ice him. Hes a disgrace to Argentina and its rich boxing heritage. Hes also a liar.
He really wrote all that...no help from his management? Abregu isn't excellent, but he would knock Maidana clean out. Bradley should outpoint him, though.
lol why because he's calling out madiana.. this is boxing it happens all the time... is part of boxing :hat
