    I still think it's Khan(I hope its not) with Maidana a close second; with Ortiz as long shot hopeful. If he's charged he wouldn't be able to leave the UK while they are investigating I'm not to familiar with the British law system?

      And lastly, in boxing you don't really know how hard a guy hits until you're hit. AB found that out. Your statement about Broner and his trainer comes off crass in a sense that maybe you thought that Maidana could punch, and that it's impossible for Broner to misjudge Maidana's power.

      Just like boxers say after fights...he was faster than I expected or he moved more than I thought he would. I gave you and opinion, that's all. Right or wrong, I gave you my opinion. There were many other factors that I didn't mention also as to why Maidana won.
      Everyone knows Maidana hits hard unless you have never seen him fight before as its not rocket science , Broner knew this before the first and he will know it even more in the second. Its not an advantage in the second like you said it might be.

      If anything its a disadvantage as AB knows Maidana can hurt him, he will have that doubt in his mind. This wasn't a one shot lucky KO win, this was a beating over 12 rounds and Maidana was clearly superior. broner could well be a beaten man before the bell even rings in the rematch.

      IMO Maidana wins even easier this time but we shall see if this happens again and i hope it does.

                Maidana had NO respect for Broner. Before the fight, pushing him aside during the weight in (Broner flew away, it was funny) , then shoving him back again during the face off, then pointing his finger at Broner's head as if it was a gun. It was kinda sad for Broner, like a 10 year old in school bullied by a 16 year old that knows he can beat the crap out of him at any time, inside the ring or out of it.
                Then on the ring going out in the first round with full confidence in his power. He will be even more determined to rip Broner's head of in a second fight and Broner hasnt got the power nor the skill to stop him on his tracks or make him pay for the confidence. The Broner question has been answered as clear as 1+1=2.

                  Stop trying to downplay Maidana's abilities. Size is not the reason why Broner lost to Maidana.
