Amir Khan's performance was disappointing.

Now before you go crazy hear me out: I have no stock in either Maidana or Khan. In fact I expected to see a total beast in there in Khan against a fighter that while powerful lacked the skills to make it count. Everyone was raving about how Khan is a totally different fighter since his loss and how Freddie has changed completely changed him. BS. So when I tuned in. I was instantly disappointed in Khans performance. He was quick but not blindingly so. Just enough to not be considered slow. However he wasn't really all that illusive. He was getting hit a lot by a guy that was considerably shorter than he was who was only just decent at correctly placing his shots. Furthermore and this is where it gets really disappointing. It was the third round or so and Khan was completely winded in his stool in the corner. Khan is all over the ring but not comfortably so and so it demands a ridiculously high level of energy from him. More than he really has to give. So despite his speed advantage and better shot placement he really had no ring generalship. Maidanas coming forward was controlling his every move and maybe unwillingly so. That is why he was so winded. He looked like he was about to collapse and if it had not been because Maindana relented finally after being tired and maybe lacking a little will I feel Khan would have toppled over. On top of it all Cortez was clearly on Khans side and very visibly so would constantly interrupt and butt in when not necessary. Although he was right in taking a point from Maidana. Overall Khan had every advantage available to him plus the supposedly best coach in the world (BS), a helping ref on his side, and not only had tons of problems, but he didn't finish strong. If I was a well conditioned elite fighter at 140 or 147 I'd be licking my chops trying to get a fight with Khan because he seems ripe for the taking. He had joked around about a fight with Pacquiao..... he better keep dreaming. Khan can only do well with a fighter that pauses a lot and gives him the time to breath. Overall I give him a C+ for this performance. Yeah I know he is young at only 24. But he isn't thaaaat young. He should be starting to come into his own and frankly this should have been a much easier fight than it was considering he could land at will.
