Khan won but it was close (all 3 judges gave him 5 rounds, 1 gave him 6 rounds) and khan was taken to the hospital post fight and that night took something from him for sure, took a beating that night for sure, worse than any quick KO loss.

    Both had a 10-8 round but Maidana also had a point taken off which stopped him getting a draw on one card and only losing by 2 on the other 2 cards.

    You should re watch it, is a great fight, Khan was really dominating him in rounds 8 and 9 and looked like Maidana had nothing left which gives the impression that he was winning easily before the 10th but people forget rounds 3,6 and 7 which were Maidana rounds.

    Maidana will have problems with Floyd, everyone sees it but you just never know, Maidana does have it in him but he has to have a perfect night i feel.
    I gave maidana 6,7,10 and 11

    Khan 1,2,3,4,5,8,9 and 12

    115-110. Fairly clear for khan, I don't really see how you can clearly give maidana more than 4 rounds unless you REALLY want to give him all the close rounds.

      I don't believe I gave him those rds..I bet on Maidana to win that fight,yet I truly only found 3 rds to give to Maidana..None of them were early rds..Maybe I should watch it again it's been a while..What I have seen is that movement and smart fighters trouble Maidana..I don't think he's beat a fighter like this yet(closest thing to it was a shot Morales),and until he does I'm very suspect of him tbh..

        Mayweather schools him,I'm genuinely shocked people are giving Maidana a chance,he has never beat anybody to suggest he can compete with Floyd and has lost to and struggled against B level fighters,fan boys must be blind

          I am not a fan of clinching tactics. But depending who it is either is a brilliant move or just a coward in these threads. When Guerrero did it most said he was effective and also is the prefered tactic of Carlos Molina.

          After the lost Mainada comented that he might go back down in weight, he had doubts after that fight.

          Lucas M and Kotelnik had successes in Alexander's style

            He obviously cheated. Those who call that outboxing are only doing it to try and cheapen Mayweather's win.

                Maidana's a different fighter now, he moves his head, lateral movement and uses his jab a lot more.

                  Just to let you know, Floyd's pretty good at clinching when he needs to. Floyd UD all day.

                    There is nothing different about Maidana bro..He throws more punches,is a good as it get's..Which is not gonna trouble May cause yet again the movement will stop all that throwing from Maidana..Broner won a lot of rds from Maidana,and this was after being hurt badly by him..Not to mention Broner stood right in front of Maidana ,which we all know May will not..

                      Mayweather's low output will be good for chino.
