Comments Thread For: Bradley on Khan-Maidana: Marcos Breaks His Glass Jaw!

[boxer3455]

Sorry Bradley, but GoldenGirl Promotions is going to match Khan against Ortiz(assuming Marcos doesn't shatter his chin first)... they are trying to keep it InHouse. If Maidana doesn't shatter A Mere Con's glass jaw, then Vicious Vicky will get the job done. Then Bradley can take on Ortiz lol

The only way Bradley KO's Khan would be with one of his headbutts, or a liver shot if he can land it.

Exactly Rome!
The people saying Bradley has a bad chin should go back and watch the Bradley/Holt fight again. One of the most devistating knockout punches (besides the uppercut) is when both fighters are throwing a power punch at the same time, which is what Bradley was doing when he got caught by the hard puncher Holt. But yet Bradley still had the senses to gather his wits, get on one knee and wait out the count.
The same happened with Urango (although he was hit with an uppercut), he was also throwing a power punch when he got caught by Devon... and Juan couldn't even get back up to his knees. And well, we all know what happened to Kahn after being hit by the heavy handed Prescott.
I don't think people give Bradley enough credit for his recovery in the Holt fight. And, Bradley is clearly getting better, working on his wild punches and not losing his head in the exchanges. Obviously, Bradley learned from the Holt fight and has not been down since. He took on the much bigger, high KO ratio Abregu, and wasn't hurt or knocked down by the hard punching WELTER WEIGHT. I still think that Bradleys power is under rated too, I see him getting stronger and may surprise Devon when he hits him cleanly for the first time.

I totally agree with every word in this post..

Ofcourse Amir isn't gonna brawl with Maidana. That would be as ****** as Maidana trying to outbox Amir. Amir never said that he is gonna brawl with Maidana. He just said that he is gonna do something different in this fight. I think Amir is gonna put composed pressure on Maidana.

He said he was going to fight Maidana and not run. I doubt he's not gonna run.

If you think that boxing on the outside while darting in for offensive flurries and getting back out of range before the opponent can counter, equates to running, then many of the greatest fighters of all time are runners in your book, including Ray Robinson, Ray Leonard and Ali.

I will make sure to bump this thread after Dec. 11th. Little Timmeh is in for a surprise.

Maidana is no Timmeh.

And if Khan thinks that beating Maidana = beating Bradley, then he is the one who is in for a surprise my friend.

Personally, I don't think that Amir will have too many problems on Dec 11th, but I hope that Maidana lands something serious, just so the chin thing can be laid to rest, either way.

Yep I agree.

But 2-3 days ago Amir stated that he will take the fight to Maidana, it was in response to Maidana's comment that Khan will run the whole fight.

Personally, I would have lied. I would have done exactly what Khan did. I would release a statement promising to take the fight to Maidana and knock him out, but have absolutely no intention of doing anything other than box smart to a wide UD.

Very few people actually believe that Khan will enter into a war with Maidana, that would be crazy, and he has too many other options.

The opinions of fans who use the term "running" to describe defence/footwork/ringIQ..... are simply irrelevant.

What Dave said

If Kahn tries to stand toe-to-toe with Maidana, it's lights out for him. He should just stick and move, and box from the outside. If he does this, he's all but a lock to win a lop-sided UD. He needs to stay as far away from Maidana's power as possible.

What Squizz said

Khan needs to win this fight with his jab, he needs to establish the perimeter and control the fight from the outside, make Maidana miss, then make him pay, then get out.

Conversely, Maidana should throw hell at Khan right from the first bell, just to unsettle him and throw him off his rhythm so he can't settle into the fight..... then use smart pressure to get to Khan's body.

Maybe I am under-rating Maidana, or slightly over-rating Khan.....
this could be a classic boxer/puncher scrap.
