    I mean I'd give him credit but I thought it was a ***** move. You're really supposed to protect yourself AT ALL TIMES though. I think they should touch gloves AFTER the fight anyway. But that was really tacky of him to do.

      I thought it was awesome. It really showed that he was a "live underdog" and he was there to take off Khan's head. IMO it made the fight that much more entertaining cause you knew this dude wasn't just there to collect a check. Maidana's a bad mofo.

        Yes, Why? Because Maidana wasnt here to be friendly. Hes here to kill you.

          Maidana came into this fight knowing he needed to land a big shot to win and thats what he tried to do. He has the mentality of an ATG.

            would've loved to see the outcry from these ******* bandwagoners about boxing isn't for killing lets touch, hug, and kiss every round tradition.

                Yeah of course I would give him credit, full credit. I didn't understand why Amir was trying to touch gloves with him anyways? Who does that? You touch gloves in the middle of the ring while the ref is giving instructions and tells you to touch gloves, and then again after the fight is over. Why touch gloves once again right before the bell? Can't be too nice when you're about to fight. Maidana is not a nice guy in the ring anyways, he came to fight and wasn't having none of that friendly stuff. And Khan tried to do it a couple of times. I was really confused like okay you're a good sportsman but he tried taking your head off once, don't reach out to touch his gloves again. Plus Roach was talking crap about Maidana being stopped under 6 rounds. When you have a coach like Roach disrespecting your opponent, be ready for the fighter Roach disrespected, to take his anger out on you.

                  Yea, although it'd be a pretty cheap KO. I never liked the whole touching of gloves at the start of the fight or in between rounds. These guys are there to do a job and that is to try and destroy their opponent. All of that good sportsmanship stuff should be left for the end of the fight.
