Sidenote: Maidana-Mayorga is just dumb.
The boxingscene article claims that the Thurman fight was never officially made and he's not promoted by Goldenboy. Seems Maidana didn't like his chances against the guy though.

Its not any more dumb than Maidana wanting to fight Canelo at 154 and having no chance what so ever.

Maidana and old Mayorga could make for a good fight and it would sell.
Didn't maidana have similar issues a couple years back where a fight was announced but he actually never signed it...he should move back don to 140 his style is not suited to move up weight...fighting mayorga is stupid what's the benefit in beating him nowadays?
The benefit is $$$ and I think Mayorga would win. It would be an entertaining brawl while it lasted.

Yeah I forget which fight it was, but Maidana wasn't happy with his promoter and there was a big story about it a couple years ago.

I was gutted when the Guerrero vs. Maidana fight was cancelled last summer as I had bought tickets to see it in San Jose. Guerrero probably would have outboxed Maidana, but it still would have been a good fight, especially when Seth Mitchell vs. Mike Mollo was on the undercard.
