    Agreed. Imagine Ryan Garcia against someone like Lewis Ritson. Ritson would pound his ass so hard he'd turn Ryan straight

    Ryan Garcia would be in for a very rude awakening if he ever dared step foot in a ring with Ritson or one of Britain's best. Like I've said many times before, our cousins across the pond fold very quickly when you take them out of their comfort zone and they're fighting on a playing field that isn't stacked in their favour. Their old school fighters like Hagler and Basilio and those 40s and 50s US fighters were proper warriors who I think were good enough to hang at Brit level or at the very least just below it, but their modern ones are all soft divas who display more feminine traits than masculine ones.

    4 weight paper champ. Beat DeMarco and Malignaggi for some belts. I can´t even remeber the other two whom he beat.
    2 were vacant belts and one of them was the WBA regular belt.
    But Broner was(and still is to some extent) a massive ratings hit.

    Paper champ is just another term for American champ IMO.

    :dunno And "American champ" stands for...?
    Broner earned himself a lot of hype with his fighting style and brash personality. So no wonder there was heavy talk of him being the next Floyd/PPV megastar.

    ''American champ'' stands for paper champ

    No it wasn't just his personality and fighting style that had people believing he was the air apparent to the P4P throne, it was his his talent and skills that had them believing he was destined to go down as one of the greatest to ever do it.

    Too bad Maidana wasn't able to use the gloves he ate all the padding out of!!! Lol That would have been his only chance.

    When ex-fighters balloons like that people are saying stuff like ''Oh let the man enjoy his life, he already made the money and do you remember all those weight cuts..!!?.''

    For me this tells that everything is not okay. Tbh i dont believe he is living the happiest part of his life. Somewhere deep in my soul I just can feel HE someways is struggling with his life.

    But still, Maidana is A BEAST.

    My man Maidana is the EPITOME of rags to riches my friends.

    ANYONE hating on him is frankly a hater. Facts.

    This is the results of hard work and dedication. Came from nothing to fighting anyone and everyone. Giving Floyd easily the top 2 hardest fight of his career.

    He left the game in the best way. Filthy rich and healthy. #Goals

    Maidana is going to be a HOF fighter. Remember I said that.

    I'll stop fan boy-ing now.

    Mostly agree. Maidana ducked Pacquiao, though. He had been saying for years that he wanted Pacquiao but rejected the fight when offered.
