This was a hell of a tear up, I posted a thread about this fight when it was announced but none of you gave a shit...

Maidana did struggle a bit against Soto Karass who is a bigger man and has an iron will.

Like others have said Maidana just does NOT belong at welterweight, he beat Soto Karass because Karass is a fringe contender and Maidana is a former World Title holder.

His class shined through despite it being the wrong weight for him.
