Showtime/Boxnation- Mayweather v Maidana -Saturday Night FIGHT CHAT THREAD

[Gandalf]

Khan deserved the win, but his cheating is bad. Collazo got docked first despite Khan initiating MANY, MANY clinches and still he kept clinching. Khan is becoming a spoiler with his throw 3 and then clinch for dear life approach. I don't think I can ever warm to such a technique. It is clumsy and is clearly cheating.

Good show, but cannot see him causing Mayweather problems.

Who is the Mexican boxer here

Interesting cause I think Khan poses more problems then any of Floyds last ten opponents even though some may have beaten Khan. Floyd has been facing essentially the same style for years outside of say a depleted Corley, Judah and Oscar . I think he's in tough with Khan.

Nothing like finishing the national anthem and plugging your facebook page

Stylistically Khan should cause Floyd more problems than Collazo, but I didn't like what I saw. It was spoiling and he should have lost several points and been docked first which would have made it more of a fight. Cheating should never be excused. Clinching is only to survive, not as a technique to earn paydays.

Its true.

Far too much holding.

I know I sound like I am moaning, but I just want to see clean, fair fights. Would it be okay for a police officer monitoring traffic to take a break every few minutes? Would it be okay for a teacher to answer the phone and leave the class every time they get a message? No. Clinching, like taking a break, and answering the phone is for emergencies only when you are doing a job and so Khan loses marks. You don't deserve a payday from slacking and bending the rules.

I hope Maidana knocks Floyd out so that Khan gets flashbacks and the chills. However, I don't think Maidana will land easily as Khan is far more porous defensively.

just remember society decided that the "rapper" that's coming out with floyd should be a multi millionaire...
