Why is everyone writing off Maidana so easily?

    He won on the only one that mattered, The one that he put up on his page, if Khan would have won on the other polls he would have said that the other ones don't count, get off his nutsack.

    Even Uncle Roger says this is a cherrypick.

    Maidana lost to Khan.

    Got Schooled by Alexander.

    A 600 year old Morales made him look average and slow.

    The dude is taylor made for Mayweather to look good.

    Anyone who thinks he poses any threat to Floyd should be shot on sight.

    In the Khan fight people seem to forget that he got dropped by a massive body shot and then carried on fighting another 30 mins. Now i dunno about you, but it would be pretty difficult to KO a fast mover in Khan while stamina and that body shot comes into play. It was only the last 3 rounds he had Khan hut. (Jim Watt imitation)

    Maidana another slow plodding joke

    Zero boxing ability

    Zero head movement

    Easy to hit

    Floyd will opt shot him all night

    Floyd still waiting for manny to slow down enough to fight him

    I can see both sides. Im sure he MIGHT have said that. But you WOULD have hated him still, if he picked Khan

    On world level, Maidanas power has been shown up as OVERRATED.

    He has not stopped a legitimate world level fighter, in fact.. he's failed to stop the ones who literally eat punches and have no regard for defense.

    I just realised how the past his prime Morales made Maidana look like a kid.

    Sure, but Floyd doesn't possess KO ability. Maidana will bum rush him and put up a fight, can you not see that??

    You mean like Soto Karass? TKO 8 Lopez? TKO 6 Ortiz? TKO 6

    Mind you, Erik Morales eye was FKED UP and he still made Maidana look juvenile, he even buckled Maidana badly with one left hook counter.

    Maidana is overrated, his power at world level has been shown not to be great and he's out of his league vs. Mayweather, maybe moreso than any of Floyds recent opponents, including Guerrero.

    An old Morales gave Garcia a great fight in the first encounter and beat Cano. Styles make fights

    "in fact.. he's failed to stop the ones who literally eat punches and have no regard for defense"
