Re: How Good Is Marcos Maidana's Chin ?
His chin seems average, he is the type of fighter that goes up and down a lot but is always exciting and always tries to knock someone out.
The problem is, he won't get that chance.

All depends on how many lengths he does mate.
That post by ICB has to go down in forum history. Brilliant.

He has just moved from arm bands on both arms to the left one on it's own, he is training is going well and he is on course for his 25 metre badge by fight time, so I am slightly worried for Amir.
Re: How Good Is Marcos Maidana's Chin ?
Maidana's chin isn't granite. But it's not Con like. Ortiz is a big puncher. The shots he dropped Maidana would of knocked down any 140 pounder. Difference between Maidana and Con is Maidana has shown he can get dropped by a big puncher and get back up to win. Con well he showed he can get back up too. Problem for him is he gets back up to get brutally knocked out

Oh no doubt i agree i just think Marcos Maidana's wide punching, will be a big problem. I see Amir Khan beating him to the punch, with his straighter, quicker, more accurate shots.
Again nothing would suprise me in this fight anything could happen, i still think Amir Khan has some big question marks to answer. And i think this will answer the question's right or wrong.

Khan WILL get hit by one of those wide punches. Maidana has bullet straight right hand too.

Yep, all true. Maidana can obviously get knocked down, but they were hard shots and he came back to win. His chin is alright.

I was thinking the same thing. I don't think Khan could get up if Ortiz was the one knocking him down 3 times like that in the Ortiz-Maidana fight. Or he might and then gets ko like what VD says.
Re: How Good Is Marcos Maidana's Chin ?
If Maidana was to change his trainer to Mark Spits he would easily beat Khan , then take Wlad , and then Haye.
He would be a match for anyone if he just swam more.
Re: How Good Is Marcos Maidana's Chin ?
it will be an exciting fight. anything could happen and this is the good thing. I think the straight punches and Khans speed will be too much for Maidana, but Khans chin can be tested too. I think Maidana has the ability to win this, but I also think Khan will do enough to stop Maidana. Highly exciting match up and I respect both for taking it. my pick is Khan by stoppage though.
