    Everybody knows that maidana would man handle khan in a rematch. Khan is declining as a fighter 2-2 in his last 4 fights. Meanwhile maidana is 4-0 3KOS and is hitting the peak of his career as a fighter. Amir khan is a one trick pony....fast hands and no chin.

      Maidana has been facing fighters that are perfect for his style. This guy got man handled by Devon Alexander not so long ago.

        LMAO! but i thought slow plodding maidana was supposed to be tailor made for the fast flashy broner, what happend? But now that maidana won you quickly forget that hahaha.

        As for the alexander/maidana fight...eh, alexander,120 clinches. next.

          I admit that I picked Broner because I expected him to move in the fight. Instead he stood there like a sitting duck in front of Maidana. I have yet to see Maidana beat someone of quality who actually showed some lateral movement.

          Alexander kicked his ass with or without the clinches. He actually manhandled him and hurt him a couple of times.

            of course it counts. Glass chin beat glass liver. However glass liver got better boxing skill now and the outcome may be different in a rematch.

              man i much prefer Khan over Maidana for Floyd.
              I am not saying Khan is going to win. But i feel he has a better chance if his chin holds up to trouble Floyd then Maidana.

              Maidana, though i love watching him fight is just too slow. Khan at least has speed and a little pop. too bad bout his chin though........But if floyd does not hurt Khan, how do people see the fight playing out?



              my pick is Mayweather via TKO rd 9

                Does this mean TKO6 has officially turned into a diagnosable disorder among boxing fans? It would be like Patriots fans just declaring they actually went 19-0 or Manchester United fans deciding they won the 2012 Premiership title.

                  of course it counts. but for what it's worth...i scored khan vs maidana 1 point in favor of chino. good, close fight. i would prefer they rematch at welter. maidana would win IMO but its a much more competitive fight than either of them vs mayweather.

                    I had Khan winning by KO2 on my card.

                    Khan won and he'd win again.

                      and that was enough to convincingly beat Maidana
