yeah those with campbell and Marquez both times were rough
not too mention has fought katsidas aswell
i think he gave a decent account of himself against Marquez the second time around but I have to wonder if Ronnie Shields is a good trainer for him he seemed to fare better when he had an aggressive pressure style rather than trying to out box people
like for instance in the first fight with Marquez he all but had him out but Marquez and his amazing recuperative powers were able to overcome it but the style he fought him in was what i expected him to execute only better in the second fight
his loss to Paulie was a real low point for him I think even Malignaggi was really good that nightComment

When I asked Juan about the predication this is what he told me
MA: I noticed that you have a YouTube channel that you do fight predictions? Can you give us a brief prediction what you think between Amir Kahn vs. Marcos Maidana how that will go down?
Well, I believe that Khan is going have the advantage here because, especially on what he showed on his previous fight against Paul Malignaggi, that the way he basically kept Paul Malignaggi at bay with his jab he was just really using his height to his advantage.
Because, in the past we’ve seen Khan fight he is a tall guy, but he was fighting like a short fighter. He will be in there, mixing it up and get caught with pretty clean punches and I think that now that he has gone with Freddie Roach he has developed a good style, boxing a little bit more and being more smart.
So I think that that is why he has the advantage over Maidana. It is the fact that he has his height and he is using his height to his advantage now! But Maidana you can’t really fall asleep on him because he does have power and he has proven that with Victor Ortiz. So if Khan lets him get in and fight in the close range then I think that it’s going be in early night for the fans, because you know that Khan can’t take a hit. I mean, doesn’t really have a good chin. But overall, I think that Khan could be the clear winner on this fight, I am picking KhanComment
