Comments Thread For: Maidana: Either Amir Khan Fights Me or He Can Vacate

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Just a month ago it seemed like a forgone conclusion that we were going to be seeing a summer showdown between junior welterweight champions Amir Khan and Timothy Bradley. Bradley had won an uninspiring ten-round technical nod over Devon Alexander in January while Khan easily controlled Ireland's Paul McCloskey for six rounds in his native England before the fight was stopped in the sixth after a clash of heads forced a nasty gash that saw McCloskey unfit to continue.

This is the second time Maidana said this in about 6 months

Anybody see anything wrong with that?

Yep. Maidana looked terrible against Morales. He should have to work his way back into that mandatory position. He doesn't deserve that spot right now, no matter what anyone says.

Maidana doesn't deserve to be the mandatory challenger again. It's unheard of. Khan just beat him 6 months ago.

Maidana should fight somebody credible for a change instead of always trying to go after the man with the biggest name at 140. Morales almost beat him. Why not rematch Morales or Ortiz?

The WBA won't vacate Khan's belt. They will either make him Super Champion or tell Maidana to wait longer.

khan didn't beat maidana. joe cortez did.

[sjewitt]

he should ha one or two top 10s before getting another shot, maybe if khan fights judah he could fight guerro or even someone like peterson or howabout mccloskey for a rematch at khan.

[Straightener]

maidana khan was a great fight make it happen team khan.

morrales made him look very average last time out though

khan didn't beat maidana. joe cortez did.

and Cortez also knocked down Maidana in the 1st round with that great body shot.

this clown dude almost got beat by morales and lost a clear decision to khan. great fight but he should've stated during his postfight interview that he wants an immediate rematch instead of waiting until now. khan already has a W over maidana, i doubt he pays attention to him anymore, regardless if he holds the interim belt. maidana should try and get the winner of alexander/matthysse or bradley.

Maidana has always looked average, his power is what makes him exciting.
