    Simple Question: Were you impressed by Khan's performance

    I was. Im not even a fan really.

    Ate more shots than I thought he would/could. And **** you cry babies crying about Cortez. I don't really know how anyone can score that fight for Maidana even with the point deduction.

    I was delighted, he had 1 bad round of 12, thats it 1 bad round

    He schooled kotelnic who really beat alexander and beat maidana easily bar a huge scare in the 10th round

    he will beat bradley imo

      As a fan of his.. yes and no

      Great at times but he took far to much punishment and needs to work on his defence.. i don't know why Roach fighters like to eat uppercuts.

        I was, because he answered the question we all had about his chin quite convincingly. The risky way he fought nearly cost him, but bottom line is it didn't, and he beat the guy so many thought he would avoid at all costs.

          I never thought Khan would ever be in that type of fight - his chin stood up to the test, so did his heart and conditioning.


          Khan out-landed Maidana in every round except the last 3 rounds.

          Khan outlanded Maidana 162-62 in total punches in rounds one through six.


          Khan clearly won that fight. If you want to be very, very generous to Maidana, he only won 5 rounds, max. Khan won 7 rounds, plus he scored a KD and Maidana was deducted a point for the elbow.

          My score was 115-111 to Khan, and I gave the close round to Maidana.

          I would also accept 116-110.





          How anyone can possibly score it a draw or Khan by 1 point, is absolutely fucking moronic.

            Khan proved his chin is better than expected, but he struggled in a fight that most thought he would easily win. He's not as skilled as he was made out to be.

              he did a great fight, but cortez clearly took away a lot of credit from him. if steve smoger were there, maidana could've won that fight

              not khan's fault though, he did his best to survive and deserved the decision

                he hanged around the ropes too much... other than that, a solid performance.

                    He did show a lot of heart and his chin is a lot better than I expected, but considering his talent/ skill set....I wasn't all that impressed with his performance. The fight should have been a lot easier.
