SHowtime wants it and GBP does too..
What happens here?
Maidana gets stopped, and Broner looks pretty good in the process. Styles point to that at least imo.
I like both fighters (yes, even the arrogant 'Problem') Maidana has heart but does turn to dirty tactics should the fight not go his way. He is a puncher though so could test Broner chin. TKO Broner 8th Round.
But Broner is a clean fighter who doesn't resort to any dirty tactics? If they fight I hope Maidana roughs him up, he'll get a taste of his own medicine.Quote:

Broner wins by TKO easy. M&M is to to to slow.
most likely result is broner on points i think
i like the fight tho, and as always i hope broner comes away with his face smashed in
Id be very surprised if Broner doesnt stop him in similar manner to demarco
You guys are smoking some good stuff, how in the world can you predict a blowout? there is absolutely no evidence of that, maybe, but for a prediction, nah. And to compare this guy to demarco is even crazier. Ill call it here, Maidana in 10. I highly doubt broner can even get past a guy like Jesesito, a guy maidana blew threw, you guys got fooled by the flash in his punches.
Maidana is just way to easy to hit, and Broner, for whatever he may be, isn't chinny. The little turd does go to the body pretty well, and Maidana can't take much of that. I'd say it's absolutely got the makings of a blowout.
I wish people would just comment on boxing. Yes Broner is a prick. Does Maidana stand a chance against him. No. He is a perfect matchup for Broner. And think about it. Is Maidana really a massive puncher. Landing punch and yer punch on Khan and not scoring a KO?
IMO Khan wasn't cautious of his chin when he fought Maidana. Yes he had been blown away in one round to Prescott but he probably just wiped his slate clean and thought it was a one off. And that makes a massive difference against any fighter.Quote:

We don't really know how good Broner's chin is, he's only been hit clean by pillow punchers Rees, Malignaggi, Quintero. This will be the 1st time he's fought a puncher his own size. And let's not forget despite Broner trying to copy Mayweather, he isn't that hard to hit himself i'd like to see how Broner reacts when he tastes the power of Maidana.Quote:

But because Broner hasn't really had his chin checked yet, i think its an intriguing match up and none of Broner's previous fights suggest this is a blowout IMO.Quote:

Did you see Maidana-Alexander 10-0 and, easy fight for BronerQuote:

Yeah it was boths first welter fight and both have gotten better at the weight. Any come forward fighter is going to make Broner look good if he isn't having a off night. Broner is being so hyped by the network that people are doubting his skills. I feel,like Maidana will try to pressure Broner and will take damage trying to get inside and once he's inside Broner has the inside game to hang in with Maidana, Lucas knocks his head off but I don't view Maidana as a threat.Quote:

This would be great to see! Maidana is actually using his jab now, and between the two frankly he looks to be the one who has brought his punch. Broner has a stand in style and is not the easiest guy to miss. Maidana would not be some cro mag head hunter and while Broner has decent hand speed a guy can do serious body work between his delivery where he anchors himself a lot. Thats where he'll focus. Is he some backfoot speedster with multiple gears simply keeping it in reserve...I don't buy that for a minute. If Broner "blows out" a proven wrecking ball while so far showing to be within distance and based on what he has shown up till now...I'll eat my shoes. Maidana has been buzzed by more than a few guys but Broner gets hit and squares on his heels. He has yet to show a mentality or even sponge a shot remotely close to what Maidana has.
Great post ICBQuote:

Broner starts the fight with a noticeable speed advantage and is counterpunching Maidana to bits but Maidana keeps on coming and turns it into a war. Probably Broner wins a closer than expected points decision but such is my dislike of Broner I'm probably going to pick Maidana by KO.
Khan showed alot of movement and held on for dear life when up against Maidana but Broner really isn't that type of fighter.
Maidana has a very good chance to knock broner out..
It's about styles and I think Khan can beat Broner as well..
Its a good match up keep the kid fighting just limit his press releases its getting boring!! More consentration on fighting and less theatrical BS!! He's a terrible actor! Ray
Good fight if they can make it, hope Maidana wins this by being too strong and aggressive for Broner.
