The boxing world is still buzzing over Marcos Maidana’s upset victory over Adrien Broner this past weekend in San Antonio, Tex.

In front of over 11,000 partisans inside of the Alamodome, Maidana fought a spirited and determined fight, as his power had great effect on his younger foe. Knockdowns of Broner were registered in rounds two and eight while several bludgeoning shots were delivered in many of the other frames.

When the dust had settled, Maidana has claimed a unanimous decision victory while Broner was left trying to cope with his first professional setback.

Following his unanimous decision victory over Brandon Rios last weekend, the future again seems bright for former pound for pound king Manny Pacquiao.

The Venetian Resort’s Coati Arena in Macau, China played host to Pacquiao’s ring return following his disastrous knockout at the hands of Juan Manuel Marquez last year, as he peppered Rios all night with sharp combinations while displaying his trademark speed of hand and foot.

Veteran trainer and former two-division world champion Roger Mayweather was able to take a minute to assess the Filipino icon’s future moving forward during a recent conversation at the Mayweather Boxing Club in Las Vegas.

Roger Mayweather will be the first person to tell you that’s he’s not terribly familiar with Manny Pacquiao’s Nov. 23 opponent, Brandon Rios.

When asked about for his thought on the Pacquiao-Rios per view clash, Mayweather needed a brief description of Rios’ qualities as a fighter before diving in with some feedback.

When advised that the Kansas native possesses grit, fortitude, and a solid body attack, Roger seemed to feel that it’s the kind of fight that Pacquiao needs at this point.
