I suggest you revisit rounds 11 & 12 of Malignaggi vs. Cano (that is, if you have it recorded...since it doesn't appear to be anywhere on the 'net)
atsch it's easy to look good vs overmatched opponents Madaina knows this, is people gonna act like Madiana aint duck about 5 or 6 solid fights in the last year post Morales exposal, but he is due for title shot, and not Mosley who lost to Mayweather, Pacquiao and Canelo
I figured, since there was nothing worth noting the last two rounds. Though I'll admit, the wrong Cano looks a lot like Maidana.
Easy to look good, yes, but FFS you're making the same mistake here as Quincy K. I'm not saying the Martinez performance is a clear indicator of how he'd do against Malignaggi or anyone else above Martinez's bottom-feeding level. I'm not talking about him "looking good" overall. I'm talking about specific things here. Punches traveling a shorter distance. Sitting down on body shots. These are things you can always gauge regardless of the level of opposition, because they aren't impacted by it. Do you understand? It's easy to look good overall against a tomato can. However, you can't play some visual trick and make yourself look like you're throwing straighter punches. There is no optical illusion here. You either are or you aren't. Whether it's Angel Martinez or Sugar Ray Robinson in front of you, you're either throwing straight shots or you're not. Got it?
Wait...wtf... I told you to revisit rounds 11 & 12 - the championship rounds - of Paulie Malignaggi vs. Pablo Cesar Cano. You posted Malignaggi vs. Ramiro Cano from nine freaking years ago...a ten rounder. Have you never seen Malignaggi vs. PCC? :yep Did you skip the whole Garcia vs. Morales II card or something? You probably shouldn't talk about Maidana's (or anyone's) chances of stopping Malignaggi without scoping out the Magic Man getting shaken to his boots by Morales' leftovers. (the leftovers of an even older Morales than the one Maidana struggled with, at that :deal)
the better question here is this. is there anyone here that believes that the angel martinez fight has any relevancy to the development of the 29-year-old marcus maidana? an argentina amatuer national champion whose probably been fighting since he was 15 or 16-years-old? or do people here believe that the angel martinez fight proves actually nothing re the punching power or development of the 29-year-old marcus maidana who won the amatuers argenitina championship when he was nineteen years-old and a quarterfinalist in the world championships at 20-years-old? because i would believe that someone would have to be pretty dense to think that marcus has never seen the likes of an angel martinex before and has disposed of him in like fashion before. http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=257790&cat=boxer a can(angel martinez) is a can, regardless of the packaging it comes with. for the record, robert garcia is the most overrated trainer in the fight game along with greg jackson.
Somewhat, but who's in front of you has a lot to do with it, Maidana has trouble with boxers, was he facing a mover in his last 2 fights, no........................I guess you thought Manny was reformed because he looked like superman beating slow one dimensional plodders, same principal here. He beats a can now he's deserving, like he didn't go life and death with Karass before that, not to mention his ducking spree
I'm going to stick to my prediction, however blind it may seem. I just don't expect Malignaggi to come in for a main event as he did on an undercard.
