| CompuBox Historical Review: Maidana vs. Soto Karass
|
|
Jesus Soto Karass the much busier fighter, while Marcos Maidana is the harder puncher. This should be a power punch festival, as 28 of their combined 35 punches landed per round (80%) were power shots. Maidana's opponents landed 41% of their power punches and Soto Karass opponents landed 43% of their power shots.

[QUOTE=SoggyLungs]I think he would have got stopped eventually though...maidana just got into beast mode and was letting those hands fly.[/QUOTE]
I agree, the most likely outcome was Maidana knocking Karass out but Soto was still firing back. He should have been given a chance to continue. |

[QUOTE=Prince_Pugilist]I didnt like the stoppage. Karass was still able to defend himself, I hate seeing good fighters like Karass short changed. He deserved a longer go, he deserved, in what is probably his last chance, to go out on his back if thats the way the way it had to be.[/QUOTE]

but, from Maidana's point of view, apart from the holding early on and the cheap lowblows, he seemed to be a better boxer overall. His jab was very good and he managed to defend a lot of body shots that came his way, some thing he was easily caught with in earlier fights |
