Khan vs Marcos Chino Maidana ?

[generalbulldog]

True but were talking about a legend in Barrera, granted a bit old but not far from almost edging an ATG in JMM, who had a good camp, no fires, nothing like what caused him to lose the first Pac fight. Obviously a much more accurate, technical fighter than Maidana.

And the guy had one eye and looked kind of bloated and doesn't really have the power at 135 and still managed to rock Khan. I think Khan was wobbling a bit at the end of the 2nd.

I don't know man, I think you're underestimating the importance of a good camp and overestimating this male bloating thing. MAB was cut sure but Khan was just too fast, he wins that one cut or no cut.

I agree Khan would have beaten MAB regardless,he's just to fast and hungry for him at the twilight of his career...but Amir always seems to be a decent connection away from being KO'd himself..

I just wonder wether he has the ability to absorb an opponents punches as he progresses through the Divisions!

Missy will sniff this out within 2.5 mins of logging on. Fact.

Im hardly the biggest khan mark but i dont think he`d have too many problems seeing off maidana.

Kotelnik struggled against him because of his awkward style but he was clearly on the night the better fighter. Khan will outbox kotelnik as he would maidana and he would just batter ortiz quicker than maidana did.

To talk of Khan battering anyone above domestic and dodgy european level strikes me as funny.

He battered Ortiz in the amatuers. He gave him 3 standing counts. He's well capable of battering plenty of decent level fighters. He's also capable of getting ko'd himself. To me that's a good thing. Makes him exciting. That's the reason i watch Boxing. So i'm happy.

Khans speed, power, agility etc just cannot be brought into question. He won silver in athens (won the rematch easily) has already been in with genuinely decent opponents that he has made light work of and has even been taken on by the worlds best trainer who doesnt take on losers.

Without question his chin has been a concern right from the start and the prescott fight highlighted that perfectly. If you dont have punch resistance at 135/140 your not going to get anywhere. Roach can teach khan not to get hit as much but he cant teach him how to take a punch.

Khan has the ability, he doesnt have the punch resistance. What will win out in the coming years is to be seen

[TheDemolitionDan]

If Maidana and Khan do fight I will bet everything I have that Maidana knocks the living shit out of Khan. Khan's china chin will break and have a massive shattering sound.

There is no way that will happen though Roach and Warren are shitting bricks just thinking of having Maidana in the ring with Khan.

[kingfrnk]

this fight wont happen mainly because Maidana is a huge puncher. Khan will have to fight the rest of his career without fighting big punchers.

[Kel]

Lol. This is interesting. Khan has china chin, and Maidana is half chinese.

I had to read that twice

If this fight ever comes off, it would be nighty, night for Kahn in 3 rounds or less.
