Khan - Maidana in jeopardy already...

[amat]

That's a case of styles make fights though. Alexander couldn't play keep away all night behind the jab because that's not his style of fight. I think in hindsight, Kotelnik is his best performance but I still have trouble seeing him fight that way all the time because his instincts seem to tell him to do differently. I don't think he's going to control fights behind his jab especially if someone out there focuses on neutralizing that. The defense has improved simply because he has been smarter offensively. I just don't believe that will last.

Barrera fight shouldn't even count, he was outgunned but it's a myth that he hardly laid a glove on him. He landed solidly a few times before he was blinded. Salita obviously was just blown out and Malignaggi did land and he landed really early. You could say it was a matter of 'taking chances' because he knew Malignaggi was a powderpuff he got marked up regardless.

I'm sorry I'm not sold, those guys aren't the top in the division besides Kotelnik, who is more of a clever defensive type then a really good offensive fighter. Maidana will probably be able to be kept at bay with the jab but if we're going to compare him to Terry Norris (and say he could 'easily' achieve what he did) then lets actually see him tested! We know his flaws, lets see if he can work through them.

Barrera, Kotelnik, Salita and Malignaggi, NONE of those guys were going to KO Khan anyways. Let's see him tested before we go completely fucken overboard. Unless we want to say that Bradley could 'easily' become as great as Aaron Pryor or Andre Ward could 'easily' be as great as BHop.
