Maidana had the best quote I've ever heard about a fighting being shown in 570 theatres across America

He said:

"I am so happy that this rematch is being shown on movie screens because when I hand Floyd his first loss, it should be larger than life," said Marcos Maidana.

Im telling you, Maidana with MX takes the 0. Hes the hero we need

 

[Newzz]

What's crazy is that Floyd wont let him fight with the 8 oz MX gloves, scared to the point he's forcing this fight to be at a 148 catchweight (wtf? Who even fights at a 148 catchweight. Maidana doesnt even want the 154 title lol) so that he has to wear 10 oz gloves....but we supposed to take the Floyd victory seriously?

Add that to a underwhelming undercard and it's just a mess all around


Floyd would still beat him, even with Maidana wearing his normal 8oz MX gloves, but at least it will be a "non-handicap" match

The suspense of Maidana landing a KO blow is all but gone

I think Santa Cruz will be on the undercard as well.

Just my guess

 

[yo moms]

I dont know why khan insists on this strict muslim image and takes breaks for ramadan. i know for a fact hes a big partier. hes always in the clubs a d hes not drinking water.

I was thinking that too, but I want him to fight RiGOAT immediately
