Comments Thread For: Video: Marcos Maidana Training Camp For Amir Khan
Ryan Burton catches a private training session with top junior welterweight Marcos Maidana, as he prepares for his upcoming shot at WBA champion Amir Khan.
:58 or so...trainer is asking him to get inside with the jab...feel the distance using the jab.
2:00 "when you get there...HIT HIM. don't wait. He won't stay there for more than a second.."
3:15 "if you land THAT punch...we'll see if he can handle it" or "how he handles it".
3:47 telling him to keep his legs under him..."you don't have to lean in closer..hit from there..." **great advice, that's one of Maidana's weaknesses. I hate when he leans in to punch instead of stepping in**
5:11 "attack with the right-hand low, duck, and then the right-hand up top"
5:34 "exactly. nice and closed-up" *as in, tight guard*
Theyre focusing on body shots so that Amir lowers his hands and then they want to go finish it on the top. And he looks slow as hell.
BPP, also add a video of a Khan pad session with Roach.
Man...he looks extremely slow. I guess the plan is to work the body and try to slow Khan down and catch him. Is it me or are they shooting for a knockout or bust?! Cuz if Khan is able to move, avoid the ropes and keep in the center of the ring he's gonna pick Maidana apart.
Khan is going box the hek out of Maidana, the dude is super slow.But he is going to tag Amir at some point during the fight and IF he survives it's over for Madiana.
When has he EVER looked fast? He doesnt have great hand speed, and hes not a very polished boxer.....but he hits hard as ****ing hell and we all know thats some Khan cannot handle well =)
