    Can Khan Surpass Diego "Chico" Corrales?

    As some of you may know, Diego Corrales is my favourite fighter of all time, He "fought reckless and he lived reckless" and ultimately he died recklessly and too young.

    I see alot of Corrales in Khan, Same height, Same reach, Same power, Same heart, Same questionable chin. My question therefore is do you think Khan will surpass Corrales provided Khan doesnt die anytime soon?

    For me the Khan -V- Maidana fight is like Corrales -v- Castillo, Khan being the Corrales and turning the fight around in the 10th round, Its for me great that Khan is fighting in the same building and same ring at Mandalay Bay that "Chico" fought and deafeated Castillo in one of the greatest fights in boxing history.

    Khan -v- Maidana can have the same historical impact on boxing as Corrales -v- Castillo. Its a great fight and has all the makings of a historical fight!

    So my question here is if Khan doesnt die young, Can he suprass Diego Corrales?

    You are unbelievably ******.

    They don't fight like each other......at all.

    Completely different styles.

    Corrales has more in common with Ali Funeka or Caballero than Khan.

          Sure, he can surpass the amount of times Diego Corrales has been knocked down.

            Khan -V- Maidana is a tought fight, Khan will have to fight every second of the fight, Maidana might have no boxing skills but he has power, But thats all Maidana has, I expect both Maidana and Khan to be knocked down, Khan will get back up and win the fight.

            Dont write Maidana off, He is a very dangerous opponent for anyone!

              Maidana-Castillo is a horrible comparison,Castillo was a very skilled pressure fighter in his prime,Maidana has a punch & that's it!

                  this thread is a joke, totally different styles/personalities and I don't see how Khan "lives recklessly" at all
