    Who took more damage from their respective fights against Maidana?

    Floyd or Khan?

      Who cares? Khan beat him clearly via UD. Floyd had an MD and some felt Maidana actually won the fight and are pushing for a rematch.

          Floyd's style has never worked well against those swarming type of styles like Hatton, Maidana, Castillo, etc. He's not active enough to keep those type of fighters at bay, but he does enough to beat them with his timing and accuracy. Khan is a more active fighter than Floyd and he got the job done better because he was able to offset Maidana's offense with his own non-stop offense.

          Styles make fights, Khan would do well early against Floyd, but he's still the same clumsy guy who'll always have problems dealing with fighters who can time his offense rhythm.

            And I guarantee this version of Marcos stops him
            Yes, and this version of Khan beats Garcia and Maidana again.

              So, it shouldn't matter as to whom took the most damage then correct?

                That wasn't my logic at all, but UD>MD. The knockdown is more like complimentary thing that adds to it.
                This started with you using the scorecards in the Khan - Maidana match to bolster the point that Khan out performed Mayweather against the common foe in Maidana. Now when I bring up the scorecards in the Mayweather - Maidana fight you're saying that the scorecards are illegitimate because you don't agree with them. You're trying to have it both ways. Khan only won by 1 point on one of the cards. UD>MD any day, but not everyday. And Mayweather literally won by a wider margin with his MD than Khan did with his UD. If you don't agree with the numbers that's fine but since you brought the scorecards up as a way to make a comparison between performances it's only right we clarify and compare the actual scores. IMO anyone who believes Maidana won the fight or that the 114-114 card was legitimate is judging with their heart and emotions not with their eyes and minds.

                  Right, but what Khan said was true. His performance was better that night.

                  Styles make fights, Khan would do well early against Floyd, but he's still the same clumsy guy who'll always have problems dealing with fighters who can time his offense rhythm.
                  It's not being timed Khan has problems with, it's getting hit hard by punchers and not recovering. Floyd isn't one.

                    but once Floyd cherry picks that guy you call a clown, you will be saying:

                    Stop it guys, Khan was a great opponent for Floyd. He was ranked #1 by the WBC.

                      Correct. I'm just proving a point that Floyd has problems at manhandling those type of fighters who can maul and smother him on the inside due to his lack of workrate, but that doesn't mean that their level of success comes from landing punches on him at a consistent level. Floyd was not phased nor wobbled by any of the power punches that Maidana landed on him. He spent the entire fight being agitated by Maidana's dirty/illegal tactics than anything else.
