In defense of Maidana/PBF

[Beanflicker]

I think Lara has as much if not more name value than Guerrero and Ortiz did at the time they were fighting Floyd

How do you figure that?

Well he's the guy who just destroyed the guy Canelo is about to face so is well known through that and also known to get a bad decision against Williams in his comeback fight after Martinez.

Guerrero was relatively unknown to casual fans and only known from his close win over Berto. Ortiz known from the foty with Berto an loss to Maidana but certainly a bigger name since fighting Floyd. I just don't see a huge difference in their name powers at the time of the fights.
