Comments Thread For: Marco Maidana: 'No Plan B, I'm Coming To Knock Khan Out!'

[LeadUppercut]

Not a good idea, Marcos. If your only plan is to follow him around trying to knock his block off then it may end up looking like Mayweather/Baldomir all night. Well, not that Amir is anywhere as good as Floyd, but the boy does have some skills. Amir is not going to stand and trade with you like you're used to. You better work on your cutting off the ring skills Chino.

Thats the point, right there.

A- Khan has no power whatsoever.he got only speed and Maidana aint no paulie powerless gay...and one thing..khan have a glass jaw

Ummm, I would not call Khan feather-fisted, it's just his style.

He can punch alright.

I think Maidana seen all those shots Paulie landed on Khan and felt if it were him it would have been goodnite..Paulie was able to punch with Khan and landed some good shots that you could tell effected Khan..Maidana is going to win this fight 4th to 6th rd KO..

I have seen you copy and paste that a few times, everytime you post it, I think damn, this guy is good at copy and paste.

LOL! So true. The idiot doesn't bother to read the replies either, because he gets owned every time he does it.

Having no plan B is not cool.

[Earl-Hickey]

Wow, what a surprise, i though Maidana was going to try and win a shutout with his pinpoint jab.

[SirTomJones]

Maidana is gonna get put on his ass again.

[Dave Rado]

maidana has great stamina.

and of course he has no plan b, he doesnt have the skills to execute anything but a single seek and destroy plan.

That's way too simplistic.

The seek and destroy plan needs to take into account the fact that his opponent has good lateral movement, very good footwork, a great jab, and is much faster than him. He needs to do a lot of sparring against people with good lateral movement, and work on cutting the ring off and bullying them into the ropes.

And he needs to go to the body to have any chance against Khan. He has no chance whatsoever if he just goes head hunting.

Hopefully he is smarter than he sounds in this interview.

Malignaggi doesn't have much of a punch, but he is vastly more skilled than Maidana. Maidana shouldn't take too much comfort from that fight. Just because Malignaggi could land a few clean punches doesn't necessarily mean Maidana will.

Maidana does have a decent chance, and more than just a puncher's chance, but only if he has a decent gameplan. He needs to focus on going to the body and on cutting the ring off. If he just follows Khan around trying to knock him out, he will be humiliated.

Exactly, paulie is taller, longer reach more speed accuracy and skill than maidana, better chin too, the only thing maidana has over paulie is power.
