I don't think he looked all that comfortable on the outside, he's not the sharpest puncher and Marquez is among the sharpest counter-punchers in the game. Marquez just isn't going to be overwhelmed with physical ability by Khan when he just went 12 rounds with Mayweather.

Don't know why they wouldn't want to try to beat Maidana before someone else does.
kotelnik already beat maidana
