Maidana/Corley & Segura/Calderon RBR discussion thread

[Doctor_Tenma]

I'm not Hbo. I don't write off guys after one less than explosive night.

Corley is a cagey guy. I thought MM would khtfo, but I also thought Corley might do what he did tonight and come to try and spoil.

"Spoil"?

Maidana was the dude hitting him low and behind the head, CONSTANTLY, with big shots too.

You mustve not seen that fight. He kicked Kotelnicks ass.

yeah u the same guy that said Alexander kicked Kotelniks arse lol

How the hell is Maidana gonna reach that china chin? Maidana will get jabbed and straight righted all night.

Khan did not have all the advantage, Reach and Height was in Prescott's favour.

Those slow looping shots of Maidana even an old man could see coming.

Maidana is tiny compared to Khan.

Not only that, Amir Khan can use the same defense Kotelnik uses. Fact is, Maidana aint touching Khan.

even the americans doing play by play gave it to kotelnik 115-113. no.

[-EX-]

With Freddie Roach in his corner no way should Khan lose to Maidana...

[Blubba]

don't forgot about khans faults while you trash maidana. khan was knocked out silly in the very first round.

and i along with many others had maidana winning the kotelnik fight.

i don't see how khan will be able to take the shots maidana will throw and land on his chin.

How is he gonna reach that china chin???

Slow looping shots, easily telegraphed, slow footwork, shorter, much smaller reach.

???? explain.

You really think Khan would go toe to toe? u must be mad.

i go back to the styles of KHAN VS MAIDANA (not take what you can from corely vs maidana & then praise khan with a false victory) maidaina won't have to reach khan. khan jumps in all night with his chin wide open. maidanas eyes will open very wide when he sees khan do this & he will catch him over the top with those looping power punches. khans knees will buckle. wait & see. khan will be on dream street once again.

Cazarez 2x(F'ing huge jr Flyweight), Mayol, Bustos, Barrera.

Not saying he is an ATG, and not even put him ahead of Cotto who I think is a borderline HOF'er but dude is not a bum at all. And, at his prime a very skilled boxer the best behind Floyd. Untouchable. And, even for his weight-class was a small dude and outbox guys who were bigger guys.

lol...like i said......calderons resume aint s.hit to be claiming his "pure"boxing prowess.....especially since his flaws have always been aparent...

His second win over Cazares and his win-draw over Mayol were cut short too....not even time for him to get tired like always.......

Bustos was a top 6 opponent only cus he had recently "beat" eagle.....like byrd beat vitali .... and had already been exposed by Takuyama.....and barrera is a decent fighter who always loses close and has never even gotten over the hump to be a titlist.....

i like the lower weight classes, but seriously....aside from the top 5(eagle, takuyama, rachman, niida, calderon), minimum had pure sh.it during caderons reign....and the besT never fought each other.....


calderon is a good little boxer, but he was overrated as hell, just because He has an ethnic following and some "im hot s.hit" writers who wanted to appear all well versed in the lower weight classes started calling him "best pure boxer".....


just laughable

yep exactly. There is no advantage that Maidana has. None.

What has Khan done to show he can take a clean shot from a power puncher since Prescott? Khan is clearly the more skilled fighter but fights arent only won on skill chin heart and stamina all come into play and in my opinion the chin aspect of Khan is still not proven
