Although Maidana is a dangerous opponent for Khan...

[Shattered Jaw]

Maidana is the far superior fighter who has proved far more in his career.


Maidana by KO.

[Pugilistic™]

Khan has the superior boxing skills but i see Maidanas agression, toughness and power being too much for him to deal with through 12 rounds.

Khan can't avoid being hit for 12.

Ahh the notorious Khan-hater is back. Explain why Maidana has proved far more in his career then Amir. Apart from the Ortiz win who else did Maidana beat? And remember Ortiz was green and had a padded resume himself.

Marcos takes his head off, that's why Joke Coach Roach dodged him...

It's no secret that GBP is protecting Amir from mandatory Maidana. The reports are everywhere on boxing forums. Approval from the WBA, step-aside money, HBO giving Maidana 3 guaranteed dates to stay away from Khan...truly pathetic if you ask me. I hope Paulie whoops his ass. And if Paulie beats Amir, we all know he'd fight Maidana in a minute....because he's actually got some balls.

What's more pathetic is that Maidana accepted step aside money. He should have enforced his mandatory position.

Khan is going to avoid Maidana for his next 3 fights. True story.

[zero188]

wow,i never heard of this step aside money and 3 hbo dates thing.i thought khan has a certain amount of days to negotiate with maidana since maidana is the interim champion.wont he be stripped if he doesnt fight maidana eventually?

[BritishBoxing92]

...I still think Khan has a half a chance of beating him. Maidana has got a power advantage and as Khan's chin is ****, there is a high chance he'll get knocked out.

But Maidana does leave himself open to shots when he starts throwing wildley and Khan does have the speed and skill to take advantage of these openings.

Does anybody else out there think Khan has a HALF decent chance against Maidana or is it just me?

yeah i reckon amir has a chance to beat maidana thats if he fights him..and apart from that khans a more better fight now since the prescott loss..

[Earl-Hickey]

I think it's a terrible fight for Khan to be honest, If he had even an average chin i'd make him favorite over maidana but his chin is terrible, and Maidana only gotta land a jab and Khan is alseep

I did favour Khan in the past but all this blatant ducking, Roach is saying without words that he dont have faith in khan.
