Comments Thread For: Amir Khan May Vacate if Marcos Maidana is Pushed

[Access_Denied]

Khan has earned the right to fight the big money fights. We as boxing fans need to understand these boxers work their asses off to get to where they are. They put their health, careers, and even lives on the line every time they step into the ring. If you are going to face a big puncher, get paid for it, or fight someone you will get paid good for. Maidana hasn't proven himself yet to face a Khan. Khan should duck him for more money elsewhere, then if Maidana proves him self and makes more of a name, they should fight. This way Khan and Maidana both get a good pay day. Khan could whoop his ass and put him out of the picture too. Both fighters should wait. I know we all hate waiting but money dictates the sport and there's nothing we can do about it. Bitching and whining gets us no where. On the other hand, this forum wouldn't be here if it weren't for that. lol

So what you are saying is that when a serious threat comes up to avoid it in every way? You sound like you actually represent Khan .... Erik Morales next! What warrior

i really don't think maidana really has a chance to beat khan anyways, unless he landed a lucky shot. after seeing what ortiz did to him, i think khan would knock maidana out early.

What a *****. Unless he has something MUCH bigger instead, Khan needs to go ahead and fight Maidana.

I never said that. I said Maidana isnt anything special. Hes being built up cos he made Precious Vic cry. But if Khan fights a better fighter, theres no argument.

What you said below disagrees.

Why is everyone acting like Maidana is something special? Khan shut out the guy that beat him.

If Maidana is nothing special like you say why is Khan ducking him and willing to vacant his title to do so ?

Maidana isn't a very skilled fighter but he applys pressure, has good power and is durable.

He would cause Khan problems because of those factors and would certainly test that glass chin.

A win over Maidana would erase that Prescott loss no doubt in my mind.

Khan should fight him.

I wouldn't mind Khan ducking Maidana if he faces someone like Holt, Bradley, Paulie,etc.

I say make the fight. Maidana beat-up ortiz and deserves the shot. If Khan wants to be the best he should fight the best. Maidana is young and upcoming with a real power. Khan maybe afraid that one lucky punch might end up the way he lost against Prescot. Khan doesn't need to fight guys on the downhill like Hatton and Marquez unless all he wants is the money.

2- Maidana has prove him self way more than khan so far...

I'm on your side in most of what you've written but not the above. Khan outclassed Kotelnik, who narrowly beat Maidana. I know styles make fights, and that Kotelnik's style was made for Khan, whereas Maidana is a real test for Khan's chin, but still, you can't say that Maidana's résumé is better than Khan's, that just ridiculous. Especially when Maidana fought someone with a 22-5-1 record in his last fight, and in Argentina, when HBO were offering him a good money fight in the States against the likes of Campbell, which he turned down. You can't defend Maidana after that, it's just pathetic. Salita >>> Gonzalez.

Only reason he wants Marquez is cos he is another pint sized fighter who can't hurt him, as he has fought his whole career. (Ok ok apart from one - Prescott)

His resume will improve when he fights guys in his own weight division.
