Marcos Maidana officially retires from boxing




After two losses against Floyd Mayweather Jr. and having not inside the boxing ring for almost two years. Two division world champion and once the Argentina's bravest warrior of his time retired with a record of 35 wins 31 KOs and 5 defeats.

Marcos Maidana statement:
Probably, my decision would not surprise much as I have given hints of it in the last few months. But at this time I am making it official.

Before anything else, I must say that I leave very proud and deeply thankful to boxing and everything that I have achieved. I never imagined getting this far as I put on a pair of gloves for the very first time when I was 15 in my native Margarita City. I think I was able to put the name of my country Argentina very high after winning two world titles and fighting against the best in the world. I had a tough career and I fulfilled many of my dreams. I am a very happy man with my family and friends by my side these days. I know many of you think that I still have things to do and battles to fight, and I respect that, but this is something that I had in my mind in the last few months. Only those who know what a real challenge is, like the ones I always had, may understand that you have to be absolutely motivated to approach them. Only through a great physical and mental effort can you mix in the ring with best of the world if winning is your goal. I always wanted to win and today I do not feel motivated enough and do not have the fire inside me to climb those mountains again. That is why I announce my retirement. At this time when I take a look back at my career, I want to thank so many people that helped me to have what I call a successful career.
