    That was a great fight.. Khan won it fair and square..

    People need to stop bringing this fight up, so many things have changed since then that it truely has no bearing on the current state of boxing

      So you wouldn't watch a rematch? It would be as big as Cotto/Margarito II.

        Of course I would love to see a rematch, but I'm sick of people using is fight as some barometer of how future fights for either guy will go.. This fight has no relevance to the present day version of either guy

              Yea I agree with that, both fighters have changed.

                for 5 or 6 rounds he practically did, Maidana didn't win a minute but he had some success in the middle rounds and did well in the 9/10th round but it just wasn't enough to win.

                Khan won, what do you want the fans to say exactly?

                  Gotta agree with Wraps, Maidana beats the breaks off Khan in a rematch. Maidana has improved under Garcia tremendously. Khan has been the same almost his entire career. His boxing skills have peaked and he hasn't made much improvement under Virgil. Maidana on the other hand has learned to control his aggression and apply effective pressure. He has a solid jab and sets up traps well. Khan still has his amateur style with speed.

                    The samething was said before their first fight, people even made sigs of Khan landing 250 odd punches and Maidana landing only 1 punch which result in a KO win for Maidana, talk is cheap and what happens in the ring is what matters most. and as of now that same china chin Khan still has a W over the banger.

                      why are you saying he got beat from pillar to post, but agree that he won? That doesn't make sense.

                      Up until round 8, Khan had done a job on Maidana. He made him look like a sloth in there. Maidana knocked on the door late in the fight, and almost had Khan out of there, but Khan fought back and won one of the last rounds.

                      It was fight of the year for a reason, it was action packed.

                      One of the best fights I've seen in a long time.
