He looked better than recent fights but Collazo is no Maidana.
Should Khan rematch maidana first before he gets to floyd?

Your right, but you seem to talk from a point forgetting what khan did to maidana previously.
If khans sticks to boxing it would be the same result as before and or possibly a Ko for him if he attacks the body.Comment

ur right he is no maidana
he is a tricky southpaw who nobody looks good against, even when they beat him, but here is khan looking spectacular against him and laying him down 3 times
hatton, mosely, berto all said he is hard to handle and described him as an animal
yet khan after a 12 month lay off, with 60% of people saying he was going to get KO'd, instead he outboxed collazo for 12 rounds and broke him down to little bitsLast edited by FrankieBruno; 05-04-2014, 12:42 PM.Comment

Maidana did better than Collazo against Khan already.ur right he is no maidana
he is a tricky southpaw who nobody looks good against, even when they beat him, but heee is khan looking spectacular against him and laying him down 3 times

i think khans grab, clinch, lean style makes it even harder for maidana to win
we saw how devon smothered maidana work for 12 rounds, and had him contemplate retirement
khan isnt throwin 20 punch flurries anymore, which makes it difficult to get a shot off on him, stick and move, clicnh and lean, jab jab, right, hooks to the body, move move move
madiana will have the same problems only this time around he might get floored for good, khans bodyshots look even more desvestaing now, maidana gasses after 5 rounds, we saw it again last night against a guy who simply pot shots.
unlike floyd khan would not stand in the cenetre of the ring and trade like floyd, he'd hit a fast hand right and start moving in criclesComment

I do believe styles make fights. just because; khan looked better with collazo. you shouldn't discredit his boxing against maidana, he did if you remember score a knockout, which maidana did not do regardless of the turn of events in the 10th round.
You have to remember after khans recent performance he has proved he has the ability to stay on the outside and outbox alot better than before. If he sticks to what he does best i believe he could win against maidana more decisively than last time.
but i supose in boxing anything can happen. but from the last performances its safe to make the prediction i make.Comment

Erm... TS, you are aware of the fact that Khan WON against Maidana, right?
If avenging his LOSS to Khan wasn't a prerequisite for Maidana to get the Floyd fight, why would it be a prerequisite for Khan to repeat his WIN against Maidana?Comment

Khan finally looked good in a fight with a very average fighter and you say he wins all 12 rounds in a fight with Mayweather. This is the same Khan that just barely outpointed unranked Diaz in England 13 months ago and before that was KOed in 4 rounds. This is the same Khan that was outboxed and lost on points to Peterson, a guy who lost every round to Bradley. Some UK fans are so desparate to have more good fighters from England that they take a decent but flawed Khan and try to turn him into an invincible monster that he isn't and never was and never will be. Maidana has improved enough to knock Khan out which he might have done in the first fight with a fair referee. Mayweather would outbox Khan and knock him out with straight right hands in my opinion.Floyd fans shart scared of Khan
If Maidana slowbo can win 4 rounds against Floyd
Khan will win all 12
Maidana was having success with shots to the body, which is Khans most devastating area to punch
Khan not only hits hard to the body, he also hits very fast, Floyd wont see them coming, if he cudnt see Maidana comingComment
