megaman Posted September 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 Maldonado is a beast' date=' it will be a cool fight[/quote'] I think the fight will be good, but at first they declined the fight (maybe they had a more high profile fighter in mind since he was going to fight Page in the first place), like they already had other plans for him.

insertcatchyphrase Posted September 13, 2012 Report Share Posted September 13, 2012 I would ask the question how much are they offering people to fight him. Promotional deals media etc if things like that aren't being offered it might not entice the top five. To take the risk and have their stock drop for less money they could make fighting a name.
