      The same Maidana who got schooled round after round by old ass morales and struggled with journeyman Corley?

        Morales had a golfball on his face early. Got beaten badly. Any version of Morales will get his licks on anyone, true ATG's always will. Can't take anything away from that win.

        Corley is a win. A win is a win is a win.

        Khan struggled with Maidana even worse than Maidana struggled with Corley and you still hear Khantards clinging to that (best) win.

          I am a big Maidana fan, he was great at 140, but he had no business at 147. He basically has no good wins at 147. Even though Floyd struggled with Maidana, what do you think Brook does to an old Floyd?

            Kelly has been around a while but I'm embarrasses to say I only knew about brook when he started challenging khan.
            I was thinking who the hell is brook even though he must have been around 30-0 at that point?
            Then I found out brook was top 10 ww and I was thinking khan destroys him? How naive I was back then.
            Brook is better fighter. Resume I'd go with khan

                  Brook is the better fighter overall.

                    Yeah he had a golfball on his eye from the first round or something. Still managed to school Maidana for the remainder of the fight more or less. And that was old ass Morales. Maidana was supposed to destroy him.

                    It just doesn't make sense that Maidana was this great fighter when his Khan fight was surrounded by bad performances against average joes. He went on to lose to Devon Alexander as well.

                    So yeah exactly.

                      I mean, I don't know many people who can walk through Morales, any version. I don't see how that's a knock on Maidana.

                      Maidana wasn't "great" when Khan beat him, but he was a good prospect/contender at the time, a dangerous fighter. Khan barely survived that fight and ducked a rematch. Not long after Maidana stopped one of the most hyped fighters at the time Ortiz and made him a quit for the first time as a professional.

                      I don't consider it a great win on Khan's resume because he almost doesn't win the fight and that matters.

                      But I do have a problem with calling any version of Porter better than the best version of Maidana. Maidana is severely underrated in general, lol.
