Khan won the 4, 11th.

Everything else is ok.

No way. Khan clearly won that fight. You can maybe have it as close as 2 points, but Maidana did not win no way no how.

[The_Golden_Goy]

not a chance, Khan had it by a round or two.

you are an imbecile if you have it for Maidana

[LeG00N]

NO Khan clearly won the fight

[shenmue]

Khan won by a point or 2, the knockdown and point deduction (plus corrupt ref) was the reason for the narrow victory.

Great fight that needs a rematch somewhere down the line.

The "corrupt ref" made sure there was no holding in round 10 when Khan was out on his feet, he gave Maidana all the room to Knock Khan out.

I hate is when people criticise Cortez for applying the rules to this fight.

Apart from the point deduction Cortez didn't put a foot wrong. He allowed both fighters to fight, and only broke them up when one was holding on the inside. Cortez's style gave Maidana the advantage in rounds 10, 11, and 12, but he couldn't capitalise and lost the fight fair and square.

A rematch would be a good spectacle, but it isn't needed at this time.
