Just can't get pumped about either one frankly. Kind if like just waiting to catch a cab to work and get another day over with. Just a formality feel. Mentally I think Maidana is far more suited to fight him, physically may lean Khan. But the kid is just so tightly wired and a bundle of nerves. Floyd's speed and accuracy should really do a number on that.
danny and tim have both become manny. Floyd will never give any of them a chance. probably scared they have a chance of beating him

so Maidana wasn't one of his best wins, yet Maidana is more worthy of fighting Floyd, even though Khan already beat him

Julio Diaz also nearly beat Shawn whatshisface. The same Shawn whatshisface who would probably also beat Maidana, IMHO
No. He's pretty much the real deal.
No, he was just mis-labled as a box-puncher. IMO brawlers are underrated. Plus he lost to a one-time, largely underrated Danny Garcia.
I wouldn't know about that but in Broner's case, yeah. He was a massive hype job who subsequently has his ego inflated all the way up to 147 where in all honestly, he probably could have done with staying between 135-140. I'm not saying he is useless but not having the tools to beat Maidana is not good. Even an old fat Morales pretty much did it.

It never ceases to amaze me how a lot of boxing fans have no clue about momentum: that boxing is a "what have you done lately" sport, not a "what did you do 4 years ago" sport.
Let's be honest, it's not Floyd that will choose who he fights, it's his paymasters. If Floyd was picking, he'd have picked the winner of his pathetic poll already! What Floyd has done is jump on the bandwagon and basically taken the piss out of these 2 fighters who are showing their desperation and begging to fight him (Khan more so.) I say Khan more so, because Maidana has other options ( Broner rematch) where he can earn decent money.But Khan has put all his eggs in one basket and made himself look a bit of a desperate prick IMO. Khan might as well go on the offensive and start calling Floyd a coward and really abuse him "Fury style"What's he got to lose? If/when he fights him , he's getting beat anyway.
Meanwhile , they're all waiting on tenterhooks, but Floyd is probably already in camp because he knows he's fighting on May 3rd. And his opponent will have a relatively short camp. At the end of the day, what does it matter because the only certainty is that Floyd will win!!!

Maidana has a new trainer that has improved his skills.
Khan has a new trainer that is trying to change what khan won't let go off.
We can all agree khan is super fast and a great boxer. But a khan vs maidana at welterweight would be the time for maidana to shine.
Maidana will be super confident after this win and khan could have fought Alexander but choose to wait for Floyd.
Can we blame khan for waiting?
Biggest payday ever BUT if he would have fought and beat Alexander he would have been in a much better position.
It's to bad nobody else was in the mix all along. Khan and Maidana fighting again would be a lot more interesting than either against Floyd, at least imo. I'm kind of hoping there was some truth to Maidana getting the shot and then Khan vs Broner on the undercard. With Mares in a good fight on the same card, that would sell all around.

Floyd still has four fights left and hes nearly 40.
A piece of him is going in every fight he has...
It should be bradley but lets just enjoy maidana for now as i wont enjoy khan.
