* Marcos Rene Maidana *

So far I like what I see, normally when you see a record and you see lot's of KO's you 1st time he's a head hunter going on just 1 big punch that's not the case here with this kid, I like how he puts his punches together and cuts off the ring so well but don't be fooled once he knows he's got you he will def. head hunt and finish them off.

Defensively he still needs work and I hope he works on it cause he fights at 140 and most guys at top are good defensive fighters and or movers.

Also what is it about Argentina that fighters pack a punch?
Carlos Monzon
Oscar Bonavena
Luis Firpo
Jorge Castro
Jorge Barrios
Pacual Perez
The Matthysse Bros.
Marcos Maidana
How about that kid Sergio Medina that should have IMO beat Rey Bautista if not for the events that took place in the round where he would have stopped him.

These guys have high percentages in KOs.

For those who have yet to see him here he is.
4 of his last fights.

Will keep an eye out for him, thanks.

LMAO... Look at the date of the 1st post.

1 reply about Maidana and it was hitmandonny saying he'd keep his eye out on him... ;D

He packs a vicious punch. Ortiz felt it. The two of them were knocking each other down left right and center until his power eventually stopped Ortiz. It's a pity he lost a split decision to Kotelnik, I would've liked to see Khan get past this guy's punch :stars:

The next guy to knock out Khan.

a humble guy too, easy to root for.

Oh, trust me, there's no way Warren would put Khan in a ring with Maidana right now

I don't really think much of Marcos Rene Maidana to be honest, he's a very sloppy crude fighter. I admit its still a test for Amir Khan because of Marcos Rene Maidana's punching power.

But thats about all Marcos Rene Maidana has, and if Amir Khan has improved as much as he says and Freddie Roach. In all honesty he should box rings around Marcos Rene Maidana.

I havent seen alot of Maidana but liked him in the beat down of ortiz....


I never really thought of the argentines as punchers. if someone asked methe country that produces big punchers Columbia always comes to my mind....

colombians are noted as big punchers, miranda, presscott.

one good argentinian boxer is sergio martinez but not really a big puncher type.

Same here. I don't rate him in at all. Amir will put him on his arse. He'd probably get more credit for rematching Prescott to be honest.

Actually Prescott - Maidana would be fun.

Maidana also has a strong chin, much stronger than Khan. I would be impressed if Khan put "Maidana on his arse." I would favor Maidana over Khan. If Maidana hit Khan with a jab, the fight would be over.
