MARCOS MAIDANA TALKS ABOUT...
...TRAINING IN GERMANY: I learned a lot in Germany. The culture, the correctness of the people. I really love Germany. After all, Germany has important power. I would love to go there again and learn more of the people there. I will always be grateful for what I learned over there, for the way people helped my pushing my career and for the way I was treated.
...CHANGING TRAINERS: After the Kotelnik fight we decided working with another coach, and I think that was the right thing. My former coach was very good until that stage of my career. We started with Miguel Diaz before the fight versus Victor Ortiz and I am very content. He has great experience in the corner and I do feel very safe with him.
...HIS GREATEST FIGHT SO FAR: Come who may ... I have respect for all of them, but if I want to be the best, I have to fight the best.
...MANNY PACQUIAO: He is the best at present and for me it would be a great honor to fight him. I would give my very best and it would be a dream come true to defeat him.
...LIFE OUTSIDE OF BOXING: I love fishing, I enjoy music, but above all I love to spend time and have fun with my son. Also, I am a big fan of my soccer club "Colon de Santa Fé" and often take my son to their matches. Obviously, I love boxing and watching good fights. Finally, I enjoy visiting my hometown Margarita and being with the family crowd.
...HIS BIGGEST WISH IN LIFE: To have a good life for my family and to make good money so they do not lack anything. I would like to become part of boxing history and fight the best.
...MANNY PACQUIAO: He is the best at present and for me it would be a great honor to fight him. I would give my very best and it would be a dream come true to defeat him.
