Maynor René Suazo Antunez (born 10 August 1979) is a Honduran footballer who most recently played for Atlético Choloma as an attacking midfielder.
Maynor is the cousin of footballer David Suazo and retired Honduran footballer, Nicolás Suazo. Both played together at their school's football team. He is also Hendry Thomas's cousin.
Maynor Suazo began his career with top Honduran side Marathón. His play with Marathón did not go unnoticed and in 2000 he was signed by SV Austria Salzburg. He quickly established himself in the Austrian Bundesliga appearing in 23 matches and scoring 1 goal in his first season at the club. For the 2002/03 season Suazo was loaned out to Honduran side Olimpia and helped the club capture the 2002-03 Apertura. He then returned to Salzburg and was once again an important player for the club. In 2004 Suazo was voted player of the year in the Austrian Bundesliga.
On 31 March 2006, Suazo was loaned out to Norwegian side SK Brann, in a deal lasting until June 2006. Brann also got the exclusive right to buy Suazo when the loan deal expired. They decided not to buy as Suazo only played 29 minutes in the Norwegian Premier League, the team preferring local lad Helge Haugen in defensive midfield.
Suazo returned to Red Bull Salzburg after his loan deal with Brann expired. He believed he had a fair chance to gain a regular spot on the team, after Lothar Matthäus was hired as new coach. However, in July 2006, Suazo was sold to the Turkish club Antalyaspor in a deal worth €800.000. Suazo made his debut for Antalyaspor in a match versus Çaykur Rizespor on 6 August 2006. In his first season with the Turkish club he appeared in 27 league matches.
