Khan v Maidana - - - is this a 50/50 fight..?
Will Khan give him a boxing lesson or will Maidana simply hunt him down and put him to sleep?
Can't make my mind up with this one but i got a gut feeling Khan might pull this off and even stop him. ;)
Either way this should be a belter of a fight.
Re: Khan v Maidana - - - is this a 50/50 fight..?
khan should win, i think Maidana only has a punchers chance
I suppose you could says its better than an average punchers chance tho because from past evidence he will only have to land it once
Re: Khan v Maidana - - - is this a 50/50 fight..?
i think Khan will do this comfortably. I don't think Maidana will lay a glove on him.
I WOULD LOVE TO BE PROVED WRONG!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PROVE ME WRONG!!!!
Re: Khan v Maidana - - - is this a 50/50 fight..?
Khan is an obvious favourite, but I am happy to see him in there with a puncher.
Re: Khan v Maidana - - - is this a 50/50 fight..?
I think Khan stops him by accumulation in 8. Maidana has a shot, but nowhere near a 50/50 shot. Probably more like 70/30 in Amir's favour.
Re: Khan v Maidana - - - is this a 50/50 fight..?
A disciplined Khan wins this one all day long for me - but at last he is in with a puncher and if Maidana lands it could be a career ender, so it will be exciting for that reason.
As long as Maidana is in there he will know he can KO him - but I don't think Khan is stupid enough to lose focus again (although I do think he is stupid in general terms).
For me its Khan by lopsided UD or maybe late stoppage as Maidana tires and the punches accumulate.
In conclusion - come on Maidana !!!!
Re: Khan v Maidana - - - is this a 50/50 fight..?
I can see all kinds of outcomes. I can see Maidana rushing him and stopping him. I can see Khan outboxing him to a wide UD, or possible late stoppage via accumulation, or i can see an early stoppage win for Khan. If Maidana is as wide open as he was against Ortiz early on, Khan will have him out of there.
It's a very interesting match-up. Khan deserves credit if he wins this. I don't think he will get it because it will be easier to point at Maidana's faults, before listing 5 fighters who'd beat Khan ;D

If AK fights smart he will win if for some reason he allows himself to get in a slugfest he will get sparked.....Though we all know Khan has power of his own that is nothing to sneeze at
so he could catch Maidana with a crisp shot to stop him as well.....
I say this fight all depends on Khan himself ,,,,,Box smart win....get into it w him taking too many chances...and then it becomes a 50/50....If that made any sense
Re: Khan v Maidana - - - is this a 50/50 fight..?
It's a great match-up. Ultra skilled chinny boxer vs relentless banger. Maidana could win this fight even on the verge of getting stopped himself.
(Maidana is around a 5/2 shot, so if you think it's 50/50 lump on him ;))
Re: Khan v Maidana - - - is this a 50/50 fight..?
Khan's speed and movement should get him through to a quite easy night. Maidana ONLY has a punchers chance. 50/50 is not even close
Oddschecker has
Khan 4/11 (-275)
Maidana 11/4 (+275)
Draw 40/1 (+4000)
TBH those odds seem too close to me, as I will be shocked if this is competitive.
Still all that being said Maidana has earned this shot and does have a chance albeit an extremely slim one.

Khan will get credit if he wins. Actually, I'm giving him credit either way if he wins or loses because he is facing a puncher.
