    He has won a fight with his speed(Barrera) and one with his Power(Salita).

    And if none of those atributes can help him beating Maidana? He would need to prove that he is worth watching. Showing heart and defensive skills to beat Maidana.

    Defense, Power, Heart and Speed. He can prove that he has all of it beating Maidana.

    He beat Salita in one minute, there is no problem fighting again in 90 days.


    Again i got to say. Amir Khan, you are nothing yet.

    why are so many people talking about him then,if hes nothing?
    probably something too do with him being 23 and a very talented world champion who is only going too get better
    i hope khan fights maidana,he will hand him a beating

      I don't say he i no good. But hell, he is unproved!

      I would watch him always if he beat Maidana. Maidana has world class stamina and raw power.

      I said he is 'nothing' in terms of being a big cash cow that is worthy fighting just in blockbusters.

      He is still building his career. I think he will be much better than Hatton and Froch., but he is not proved yet. Barrera and Salita didn't gave him credentials to be a 'blockbuster only' fighter.

        the majority of fighters are unproven at 23

        just because he is still a youg kid with lots too learn,doesnt mean people shouldnt get exciting by him and his fights,raw talent creates fans,naturally

          Mandatory is a mandatory, unless the big names are there for Khan to fight then fight Maidana or people would look at him like a P*ssy.

            Maidana at this point is a far more dangerous opponent than Marquez and Hatton (almost put together I'd say).

            He is young, hungry, coming off several good wins including the annihilation of Ortiz. However, he is slightly chinny so I think Khan could hurt him early with power punching. Although, that said, Khan has the worst chin in world boxing today so anything could happen.

              if he vacates, its gonna look like a duck, especially because maidana brings that big punch, similar to prescott.


              Have seen Maidana twice (Against Kotelnik and Ortiz), The guy is nothing special skill-wise but he carries power,Stamina and he fights like he has Heart but i feel Khan can outbox him, Khan is now 23 and i feel he doesnt need protecting anymore, He learned from his first defeat and he can learn again from any other defeat because he still has age on his side.

                im hoping he fights him,i want too see him in their with a tough guy who can punch like maidana
                i think it will be a real test but with roach in his corner im pretty sure khan could do a job on him,and that would really raise his stock in the boxing world

                  I wouldnt totally agree with you but i do think Maidana at this stage is a better fighter/challenge than a Hatton fight, JMM would beat Khan at 140 IMO..

                    I personally feel JJM is done and would be wrecked by someone like Maidana or Khan. 4 brutally hard fights in a row (Pac, Casa, Diaz, May) when he was already showing signs of age. He is 37 now and is looking for one last big payday before going out IMO.

                    Hatton v JMM Wembley '10.

                    I'd be there...

                      I also feel Khan can do a job on him but Khan is chinny and i want to see him face adversity and see how he takes it, Maidana is no push over and he would pressure Khan for 12 rounds and i think thats where Khan would slip up and get himself knocked out.

                      It would be a shame if they vacate the title because of maidana because people would talk about it in 10 years to come, Just like everyone remember how Naz didnt fight JMM who was his mandatory back then.
