Khan on Maidana: I beat this guy easily, knocking him down and making him look silly

[MPX309]

Would love to see a 147 rematch, both of them coming in at 160/165 fight night.

[Roy Jones Jnr]

I had Khan winning by 2 rounds. Not any easy fight at all.

I'm shocked you had Khan winning at all.

Watch it again pal, i'm sure you could make a case for Maidana winning a SD.

Maybe Khan should go watch that fight again. Sure, he dropped Maidana early with a great bodyshot but Maidana got up and pressed on, much like he did in the Ortiz fight. Had Khan been this devastating boxer like he thinks that he is, then Maidana would have never even made it to the 2nd round.

As the fight progressed, Khan was FORCED into fighting off of the ropes and got punished until he himself almost hit the deck. Also, Maidana was deducted a point for an illegal punch and had that point not been taken away, he would have won by MD with one judge having it a draw and the other two having him winning by merely one point. For some reason, he seems to think he won by a landslide but it would appear that he squeaked by with a narrow victory, at least according to the judges. But, what should we expect from a guy who calls himself a "king" and refers to himself in the third person?

I watched it back the other day, seeing khan fight in 2014 he looks like a completely different fighter.

2 things to remember in this very close battle that could have gone either way:

khan's beautiful combo to the body that put chino down in the first

and

seeing khan take that life-shortening beating in the 10th round, which should have been a 10-8 round for chino

maidana will forever be awful for khan, maidana now knows not to take his foot off the accelerator in a fight with khan from the break.

[DoubleMM]

lmao, maidand didn't just have one good round

after the 1st round, maidana was busting khan up pretty much every single round. khan is a liar.

[Lalaland]

Maidana and Alexander are the biggest wins of his career?

Someone introduce this guy to HOF already.

Add to that Barerra,Kotelnik,Judah,Paulie and Lamont PEDerson.

[Lalaland]

Well he for sure beat Maidana more convincingly than Gayweather did. Khan hurt Maidana in rd1 something Gayweather couldn't do in 24 rounds.

Khan plays to his strengths which are his speed and length. Anyone who tries to beat him at his own game will have a hard time, similar to Floyd. But, if you press the action and take away the distance to grind him down with body shots, you have a good chance. I'd imagine a guy like Maidana will always pose problems for Khan based on the style that he presents.

Under Hunter, Khan has learned some tricks of the trade and how to better stop an opponent's momentum by clinching/stifling when needed in order to allow for the re-establishment of his own offense. I still see massive counter opportunities when he is on the attack though. I'm not so sure anyone can correct that but a boxer like Floyd can certainly exploit that. I'll say that Khan certainly looks like a better boxer today but if he gets this Floyd fight, he may end up regretting fighting so hard to get it.
