Comments Thread For: Maidana: "Corley Never Hurt Me, Amir Khan is Next!"

[Pin Galarga]

Bottom line is that Maidana showed that He's very green when it comes to boxing skills. You can't KO everybody and He couldn't KO Chop. I saw him loose by a point and saw that He has nothing to look for against Alexander or Bradley. He's just to slow and lacks to much skills to beat guys that will score and don't fall.
Maidana should loose weight and camp as a lightweight if He wants to be a force.

When they fight all Khan has to do it weather the storm for the first few rounds, cause Maidana will be going all out for the KO from the start. Khan just has to box smart and he will stop him late on.

Khan will beat Maidana using speed, range and movement and everyone will say he was overhyped/overrated etc.

Maidana clearly did not train much for this fight. He threw 1000+ punches against Kotelnik and was able to get up from 3 knockdowns and come back strong against Ortiz.

His stamina was absolutely terrible tonight and it should be a wake up call to not take any opponent lightly. Corley ain't no chump and is always in good condition, so I knew he would give him a good fight.

Gotta disagree somewhat,

Corley was makin' Maidana hit nothing but air, where as Kotelnik was blocking most of Maidana's shots with his shell defense; which is least tiring. Corley doesn't have much of a defense but the way he was bending at the waist was helping him, and on top of that, we all know Maidana swings at full force too.

after seeing maidana against chop chop...IMO khan will have a pretty easy time against him...

This fight means 1 of 2 things.

Either Victor Ortiz could have beaten Maidana if he'd have let the fight go a few more rounds becuz Maidana would have gassed, in which case he'd have been a superstar becuz that fight was great.

Or he took Corley very lightly and didn't train. Either way, he's still a boxing lesson waiting to happen

anyone have this fight????? i want to see it, i was looking last night, but i couldn't find it........ anyone???

[Iceta Lives]

Only now Khan is gonna fight him now that he looks vulnerable and even then I still have my doubts. Maidana has the ability to get to Khan's glass chin and if he does it could be over. Khan did himself a disservice by fighting Malinaggi instead because during that time frame a lot of peeps were high on Maidana. Now if Khan beats him, so what. But that's what Khan gets for not stepping up to the plate in the first place.

It was a good but dirty fight by both fighters. That ref should be banned from any championship bouts, he didnt deduct any points off corley for using his head a few times or the behind the head shots and hitting during the clinch breaksby maidana. maidana looked gassed as the rounds progressed,he was hurt by a corley shot in the 9th or 10th i believe. Corley could of finished him in the later rounds but he is old and lacked the power. I agree with whoever mentioned that Khan would have an easy time with him if he gets past the first few rounds.

Khan has the tools but still has to get tru a free swinging foe like Maidana who will test his chin and dicipline to his fight plan. I still want to see that fight and see Khan get in with a crude puncher like him
