Amir Khan, Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao and Canelo Alvarez called out by former world champion Marcos Maidana in comeback announcement

The overweight Argentine has been enjoying life out of the ring after two big-money fights against Floyd Mayweather in 2014

Britain’s Amir Khan is among a list of fighters who have been called out by returning former world champion Marcos Maidana.

The 35-year-old ex-WBA welterweight king quit the sport following his two mega fights with Floyd Mayweather in 2014, but has now declared he is coming out of retirement in a bizarre video.

Maidana – currently vastly overweight – posed in boxing gloves in a public call-out to his old foe Mayweather for a trilogy match, before also naming Manny Pacquiao, Canelo Alvarez and Amir Khan as fighters on his hit list.

It is as yet unclear just how serious his comebacking intentions are, but should the Argentine get back in the ring it will without doubt be a notable event.



Khan defeated Maidana by close, but unanimous decision when they first met in a thrilling affair back in 2010.

Maidana then rebuilt his career by defeating Adrien Broner and leapfrogged Khan in the race to secure a fight with Mayweather.

He pushed the American close first time around, but was outclassed in their rematch which seemingly provided him with enough money never to fight again.

Now however, it appears this may not be the case.

I was expecting him to be heavier when it said “vastly”. He just looks average overweight, believe he was one of those guys who’d get that way out of camp when he was fighting. The trouble would be more his age and time out of the ring. His whole camp would likely be about getting down in weight and into shape, and if he needs money he’s probably not going to take a tune up and do the thing properly.

Ward comes back to clean out the Super Middle and LH division... AGAIN...

Alvarez... Ramirez... Gvozdyk... Smith... Beterbiev... Browne... Jack.... Eubank Jnr... IN ANY ORDER!

There's talk of Maidana returning this year. Probably with PBC, saying he wants to get back to 147.

I would be amazed he can get back to 147lb after all this time and he was one fighter I was sure would never come back. He made a lot of money at the end against Floyd which I thought he would retire on and become a farmer.

​I wouldn't be surprised if they dug up Jerry Quarry to fight Joshua.

I for one would be surprised.
