Why no habla Maidana?

Maidana is definitely a good fighter, but I dont think you can take too much away from the Cayo TKO. Cayo just seemed way to green in there and would have gotten dominated by any top 140. Maidana would take too many shots from Bradley, but I guess he always has that punchers chance....

Cayo was a very good fight for him in fact a lot of people picked Cayo to win. The problem with Maidana is that Khan has already ducked him, Bradley and Alexander are on to greener pastures, so he won't even get a shot at any of those guys. Bradley's next fight is at Welter so we'll see if he even comes back down.

Marcos Rene Maidana vs Mike Alvarado sounds like a reailstic fight to me.

I thought they were exploring a fight between Maidana and Alexander?

I hope you're right, but I'd imagine they will put Alexander in against someone that puts more asses in the seats like Malignaggi, Juan Diaz maybe even Victor Ortiz (although I'd be shocked if GBP puts him in). The fight that really needs to happen is Alexander/Bradley

youve got to love maidana, he is just so old school

Even in the early rounds when cayo was using his speed and reach to his advantage, maidana just refused to take his foot of the pedal and let the boxing do the work constantly trading with the dangerous cayo.

I didnt see it happening 4rounds in but eventually cayo faded out as he couldnt keep up with the pace.

Best body shot of 2010 for sure
