    Amir won't be able to outrun Maidana's tomahawks for 12 rounds 6 rounds.

    I think he will

    roach will have khan on his toes for 12rounds and telling him to fight in short bursts with those fast combinations he can land. I see maidana trying to chase khan down and getting hit at will.

    Khan UD win

    Perhaps, but I would like to see Khan try. Maybe Khan eludes everything and dances to a decision, but likewise, maybe Maidana spikes him and doesn't allow him to get back in.

    If Khan can get knocked out by a bum like Prescott and we still have the improved Khan with Paulie landing straight leads, do we think Maidana won't at least challenge that chin?

    I'm intrigued as to how Khan responds because though Khan has improved, I think Maidana is a little bit better than Prescott too.

    thats exactly the way I see it - he may even get a late stoppage win as Maidana has to go for it late on and tires

    agreed

    completely unlike paulie malignaggi who went into survival mode which enabled khan to pile on the pressure

    Maidana's chin aint all that ladies and gents, this could end early, Maidana is not that good and Khan is improving with every fight with Roach.

    I will take Khan via late stoppage but would not be surprised if the ref ended this early.

    Roach isn't all that either. He let Tyson come in the worse shape ever and James Toney too. Roach is what he is because Pac is the best fighter to come to him and actually improve. Khan hasn't improved that much. He simply stays more cautious and stays on the outside. Very useful against Paulie Malignaggi.

    The question will be how will Khan respond to at least 1 flush shot on the chin from a Maidana type fighter.

    Because although Khan has improved, he is not going to accomplish this.
