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.
Yeah but losing to mayorga at this stage wouldn't be good for his career and would diminish future earnings, altho only reason id favor mayorga is sheer size. I hope maidana isn't in the middle of some promotion issues again and hopefully we get to see him back in the ring soon, especially cause I don't think he will go on all that long.. I remember he mentioned in an interview that he does not like to be a fighter but its what he knows...
