    Anyway, Khan did what he was supposed to do and beat Maidana having took his best shots.
    To be fair, he did cherry-pick Maidana. I honestly expected him to shut Marcos out and stop him. Anyway, I'm saying it now...Khan is going to be the world's best welter in another year or two.

He's the reason a lot of casual fans don't quite understand the sport and think compubox is the be all end all and that Jermain Taylor was putting it on Hopkins in the last round of their first fight. He makes me sick with that ****.
      I can't stand Lampley too. So annoying.

      Steve Albert FTW.

        In my opinion, you can't cherry pick the most dangerous boxer in the division. Khan was well on his way to fighting someone else if Maidana didn't enforce his mandatory position. And Khan has a lot of improving to do before he becomes the world best welter. Berto would give Khan a lot of problems.

          Did anyone see him snub Litzao when he beat Caballero? Straight gave him the thumb down LOL.
          Someone posted a good thread about that. He was actually giving the thumbs down to Lou Dibella. Can be seen clearly in the vid if you watch it back. I didn't notice it live either.

            damn, his name is escaping me right now, but the bigger black dude on showtime isn't a bad play by play guy either for boxing. i'd really like gus johnson if he would chill on dropping his opinions so much.

            i like bob papa as well and even steve albert.

            lampley has been driving me nuts for years now.

            khan earned a lot of respect last night, but they were talking, like timba said, like maidana was't really much of a threat (which is a load of ****e)

                  Bob Papa is the best announcer on HBO.

                  Bob Papa, Al Bernstein, Tarver, and Roy Jones should all be on circulation. That's my dream team.

                      I could be, man. I could be. But I think his chin would improve with a move up. And his other skills are amazing.
