    I think Maidana's relentless pressure had more to do with shots being landed than Amir's defensive flaws.

      Maidana landed just above 20% of his punches while Khan landed over 40% of his punches.

      Overexaggerate much?

        Seriously before the fight all you people said that if maidana lands a big punch the fight would be over. Maidana did land big shots and lost and the only excuse you can come up with is "well none of his shots landed directly on the chin".


        For *** sake man you are smarter than this!!!
        Before the fight Roach was boasting about how Khan wouldn't lose a round! All Khan showed me is that his chin is not quite as bad as it was made out to be, but he also showed me he is not as skilled or elusive as he was made out to be either.

        His defense is terrible and he cant fight for crap on the inside. A skilled boxer would carve him to ribbons.

          no, he has obvious defensive flaws. i mean he has absolutely no, zero, inside game. whenever maidana got close, he looked like ****. he has no headmovement. and when he's not punching its like u can see him thinking at a mile a minute. his footwork is great, but that only gets u so far. and worse of all, he needs to stop dropping his ****ing hands!! i mean seriously, why does he do that???

              Khan deserves credit for the win but he still looks heavily flawed. He got fairly tired in the last 4 rounds. Khan was lucky to have the ref break up the close range fighting which would have had Khan receive more punishment and in the tenth round the ref broke up the fight when Maidana was about to knock khan to the canvas.

              I hate to break this to Khan but he doesn’t have a good chin. If he did, he wouldn’t have been staggered twice in the 10th. And the reason why he wasn’t knocked out was because he was running for his life the entire fight.

                    If Khan is still chinny then Victor Ortiz has a glass jaw according to your logic. And we both know that isnt the case.

                      An opponent who has good boxing skills, speed and at least some power.
