    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.

    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.

    Yea welter is pretty ambitious. I always thought he walked away to soon. Especially after his 2nd performance against Floyd. But all that money can make it hard to stay motivated to train I guess. It really depends what weight he can get down to, he may still be affective at 154, 160 I see him struggling.

    Maidana really puffed up like an engorged tick. But after Fury practically shed a bantamweight it's possible. Much different style from El Chino. Boxing could use more guys like Maidana when he's at his best and owes him a debt of gratitude for making beating up Broner a popular trend . Just hope he doesn't get rushed back as a scalp for a big promotion.

    I don't know. Fury imploded and had to crawl back into boxing relevance..... but Maidana just out and said he had lost desire.... that he didn't want to do this anymore. Big difference. I don't know you can come back to the heights you were before, if you just out and quit because you didn't "want it anymore." Best of luck to him... and he'll always have my gratitude for embarrassing the Embarrassment to Boxing, Adrien Boner.

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

    I for one would be surprised.
