Comments Thread For: Khan vs. Maidana Deal Announced By The WBA

[Lacrimosa]

This journalist should watch Marco Maidana fight a few times before he talks about "crude swings." Maidana definitely isnt a technical fighter, but he has a very educated right hand that he manages to land on just about everybody, whether or not they're covering up or running. This fight is DANGEROUS for Khan right now.

I agree. Khan`s only way out is to box for 12 rounds. If he gets in some sort of exchange - he gets hurt badly... Maidana is also vulnerable and can be hurt - but he recovers really quick...

toughest challenge of Khan's career. khan needs to be the aggressor early and not let maidana get into any type of punching rhythm. be aggressive and use ur great movement to avoid letting maidana have that 1 fight changing punch

Yep looking forward to this.Will it be Khan's handspeed or Maidana's power.Both of them will have to be carefull of each others right hands I think.Maidana couldn't miss with it against Ortiz plus Khan floored Salita with a straight right hand as well .If any of the 2 of them land flush they could both be in big trouble.The thing is would Khan have the skill to go in and finish Maidana off , Ortiz couldn't and would Khan recover from Maidana's shots if he landed flush and dropped him.Good match up I give it a 50/50.

Now we will get the questions answered about Khan's chin. He will easily be able to outbox Maidana but Marcos will land some shots.

Writer should not be so opinionated. Why put in that OK joke about 'help the aged' and then ruin it badly with '(and chinny)'?

If anyone is chinny - it's Khan LMFAO.

Got sparked out in 54 seconds COLD. I MEAN COLD AS AN ARTIC TROUT.

At least Jones got up again when the guy was 180lbs.

Also, the reference to Maidana's 'crude' shots will be coming back to haunt him while he's got his **** in hand, ready to see one off over Khan's latest fight, when suddenly, Boom! A 'crude' shot lands and Khan is as cold as a penguin's fridge.
