Re: Who would you like to see amir khan fight next??
I'd bet Khan would destroy him in a rematch. Maidana isn't improving. Khan is. I think Khan fought a poor fight and still won after getting turned into a drunk. Maidana would beat him 1 in 20.
The rematch wont happen though. Roach and Khan's mob never liked that fight - they swerved it for a year. The risk paid off, no chance they'd give him another shot at the jackpot.

Careful not to go down again? ;D
Well, yes. It cost him 2 points in the first and he was recovering in the second. Three points down after 2 is not the best way to start. He can do better than that.
Can he? Can he really stop a fresh Amir hitting him?
Why not?
He now has the experience to build on. Khan starts quicker than most, it is better not to go to war in round one. He will get you much easier than you get him. But Khan does slow and more so when you've tagged him hard. Maidana knows that Khan's legs tire and that chin does open itself up.
He just needs to be more assured when that opportunity comes up. He could have had Khan in this fight, and I really don't see all that many improvements defensively whatsoever. His chin is still open, but Maidana smothered himself and went to town far too close.

Miles I think your given Maidana a wee bit too much credit here, he is what he is, he wont do anything differently in his next fight whoever that might be.
He can change, adapt, be carefull, behave ;D

I'd say Judah more so as a I'm a Marquez fan but they'd both be great fun to watch from a neutral perspective.
Judah is not ready in his head for Khan yet. He got to build his confidence back up. But he could fight JMM at 140. He have enough power to put JMM lights out.
;D
I'm not sure Judah will ever be ready in his head. I think Khan could take him.
