    I hope Khan takes notes from what he saw last Saturday night. You can't throw 1-2 combinations against the Philly Shell. You have to throw 4-5 punch combinations in order to connect. Their system is designed for slow, 2-3 punch combinations and then they reset to rinse and repeat. Maidana exposed how you beat these philly shell fighters. Bully them, make it a rough and ugly fight (they get uncomfortable) and throw 4-5 punch combinations.
    It doesn't even matter because Floyd only really does it when he is on the ropes. In the middle of the ring he always moving around throwing his straight right hand or lead left hooks into straight right hands and sometimes mixing it up with uppercuts. Broner like a idiot shelled up in the middle of the ring when really he should have been using his feet to avoid Maidana's punches and countered off of that. Also Broner is ****** because he goes into a shell when a guy is throwing overhand rights. Maidana didn't expose the shell itself, he just exposed Broner's shell because Broner has fought nothing but bums that he would look great against. Floyd has better reflexes then Broner and his shoulder roll is far better because he knows how to counter properly. Floyd loves when a fighter throws a lot of punches at him because it gives him a lot to counter off of.

    When Floyd uses the shoulder roll he always counters in the middle of his opponents attack to stop them in their tracks. He will usually throw a fast straight right hand or a fast snapping right uppercut. Floyd uses the shell much more properly then Broner. Broner just sits in the shell and tries to talk you down. Like I said before he got away with it fighting bums.

      I hope Floyd Mayweather knocks this clown out if they fight. Glass jaw Khan. Can't stand that guy.

        I was kinda hoping Floyd and Maidiana would fight. At least Maidana has had 4-5 fights at WW and holds a belt. All khan brings is speed, his power starts to fade after the 5th round. At least we now Maidana is going to go for broke and seems to know how to deal with someone using a philly shell defense, although not the same as Floyd.

              There you have it boys... Duck Maidana now... why don't you avenge your Brony lil bro? Oh ya I forgot the mayweather way... fight that No chin Brit guy who is not a threat... mayweather beats khan by KO inside 5 rounds.

                It's Mayweather so I'll watch, but this is a disappointing fight if indeed it gets made.

                  How the hell is Bradley a repetition of other fights? When the hell did he fight someone like Bradley?
