    What do you think? Does his overall career justify a spot in the IBHOF? I'd say no, although he was a damn fun fighter to watch.

    On his victories over Broner and Fluid alone I would say so

    No way. Was he a good world class fighter, yes. HoF no.

    Of course, given the low standards of IBHOF, he'll probably get in.

    No. At most he was a C level fighter whos best win was agaisnt Broner and a solid performance against Floyd.

    No, not even close. He lost to Khan for Christ sake, does Khan belong in the HOF?

    His best win? Broner, an exposed hype job. I know the HOF standards are not what they should be but Maidana would be a new low.

    No not the HOF:-(
    Maidana was a true b/alls out warrior :thumbsup Perhaps a Hollywood movie but not the boxing HOF.

    Highlights I really dig in his career
    His fight with Khan was excellent
    His fight with Ortiz which was brutal
    His fight with Broner was epic
    His first fight with Floyd was pure excitement

    Long live the little bulldog/Warrior Maidana:bbb

    Floyd went life and death with him first time around and arguably won. Only Castillo ever did that.
