    I guess he did what he nedded to win. But man he sucks, he just not only ran, but everytime he got hit he basically hold maidanas righ arm. I cant believed cortez let all that happen. It makes me think that somebody got lots of money behing khan for him not to lose.

      I didnt lose respect for Kahn. But you have to admit he's pretty chinny. He's no where near the level Manny and floyd are in terms of competition and status. He has to be joking right now when he says he could take both of them out.

        He took around 10 flush bombs from P4P one of the hardest punchers in the sport, in the same round... and didn't go down
        Pac and Floyd have been fighting years longer than Khan.

          Gained some respect tbh, I felt Khan if he utilized his talents more and was a bit more aggressive he could've knocked Maidana out. It was as if he went into this fight with intent to just prove his chin point, felt like he was in defensive mode way too much when he probably could've put the jabs in and continue'd moving. And we saw parts of that brilliance today, Madaina was definitly getting hurt, at the end he didn't even sound like he wanted a rematch LOL, but Khan just went into this fight with his mind set to just being fully defensive I guess, and got caught a few times but respect for having heart and holding his own against what experts say is the biggest pound for pound puncher.

          With the chin myth busted, Khan's almost complete, a few tweaks here and there and this guy can be a great champian. Can defo see him unify the division and he hasn't even hit peak yet.

          I know, prob americans... Finally realising someone from that little "talentless" island known as the UK can potentially take on and beat the big americans best fighters. On top of that, they probably feel trolled, since before the fight all they would laugh at is Khan's chin, today I guess the man proved it may be one of his strongest points.

            Amir did what he had to do, if he tried to stand there and go to war...well you see the 10th round, he owuld have been killed. Felt bad for Maidana he tried so hard. I felt as though Cortez got involved a little too much though.

                    I guess there will be no more talk about Kahn having a glass jaw. The most serious punch Kahn throw was that left body shot that had Maidana rolling on the floor in pain..Kahn took everything Maidana had to offer and he still out boxed him in every department.
                    Devon/Alexander should be crapping their pants..neither of them have anywhere near the power to hurt Kahn..let alone thier over hyped boxing skills.
                    I said this before the fight and now Kahns proved it..hes the top dog at light welter.

                      he was in survival mode in the 10th. His legs were swimming in jello. Floyd and Manny and dont get into that mode. Amir's chin is far from elite.
