He has a decent chin but mentally he's still a lil timmid when hurt. He still thinks about the prescott moment. Maidana is a hell of a guy to fight though. I think Maidana can beat them all!!! good division right now!

And I was talking about his destruction of Victor Cayo and Ortiz who are very gifted, fleet footed, and talanted boxers. He landed a crap ton of shots on those guys.

and ill say what i said before, i expected this fight to be khans coming out party, his annointment. i expected him to blow maidana outta the water. what i saw was a great classic fight. but from khan's perspective, i was greatly dissappointed. the kid has some holes. and they have little to do with who his opponent is. and even if they did, then all that means to me is that khan is not a flexible, adaptable boxer. neither are good opinions imo.
I think he showed a lot of heart grit and determination which to me is even better than him coming out and just dominating the fight.

You have clearly not watched the fight, have you? You must be either dumb or playing dumb to think the judges scorecards were relevant when the fight was in ARGENTINA.
Yeah I mistakenly put three in a row but that still doesn't change anything. he landed tons of shots on fighters(kayo, Ortiz) who had much more skill than he has. Maidana is a good tough fighter and deserves to be mentioned amongst the top 140 pounders today. Your just downplaying his ability so you don't have to eat crow.

Originally posted by Roksan View PostBefore 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.

I don't think he'll face Prescott again, I think he'll be reluctant, plus a decent chin is exactly what he has.
Maidana was actually keeping him from falling on the ground, he needs to work on his stamina and KO technique, too much smothering from Maidana.

people dont give maidana enough credit coz when you fight him, you have to FIGHT him at some point, he'd do the same thing to all the other 140 pounders, not necessarily win but he'd make them fight at some point, i tell you if alexander were to fight him anything like he fought his last opponent he would have a nightmare with him, just a bad style for people like ortiz, khan and alexander, they dont like pressure, i think khan did pretty well considering it was his first time fighting a real pressure fighter with power, i reckon he would do even better in a rematch, the other 140 pounders will make him look good compared this type of fighter, apart from maybe bradley who can fight many different styles.Last edited by mrgreenfingers; 12-14-2010, 03:46 PM.
