Surely Devon Alexander is more over-rated? I mean people on here have him on their p4p lists (sorry Jaz)

Met Khan, he is actually a nice guy in person. They believe they can out box Maidana, I don't think they would have taken the fight this early in their partnership if they weren't confident. Khan will never fight pacquiao, too close. I don't think anyone is afraid of alexander after kotelnik. I don't think bradley is someone khan avoids either. I think they would like to get rios one day as well.

[Julius Rain]

This is a good win for whoever wins.

I am picking Khan but not by much. Maidana will trouble Khan but I dont think he can K.O Khan.

well of course pacquiao fans think anybody can beat marquez. here's what they do, they like to say marquez is old, slow etc...to justify why pacquiao shouldn't fight him anymore. why? because pacquiao was exposed twice already by a master counter puncher. and since mayweather is the master counter puncher of all counter punchers, he'll easily defeat a poor defensive fighter in pacquiao. simple as that!

How the hell is Devon Alexander on any P4P lists ? he got outboxed Andriy Kotelnik. And his best win is over a shot Junior Witter. He's nowhere close to any P4P lists.

As for this fight i agree with pretty much everyone else, Amir Khan is the favorite. But it's good to finally see him in with a puncher, its a step in the right direction for certain.

I'am really hoping Khan gets beat would love to see him get a beating for 11 rounds then ko'ed but i very much doubt that will happen

All credit should be given to Khan if he gets by Maidana. I have never been a fan of Khan but have given him his due for even taking this fight. And I for sure won't discredit him for this victory if he gets it. So Bilbo and Ono, you don't have to worry about me discrediting him.

But I can't say the same for his other detractors, I'm thinking they'll say that Maidana was crap and Khan should have fought Bradley or Alexander in the 1st place.

[:::PSL:::]

Same here. 'Gotta give Khan a big big respect for taking this fight. If he takes a good one right in the chin and manage to shake it off while winning all rounds, I'll ditch Pac for him. I'd be Khan's biggest nuthugger.

This is not a cakewalk fight for both of them. Khan defo has better corner/crew though. That's why I'm leaning a little towards him. And I'm sensing Roach will be the BWAA coach of the year again. That'd be 5th for him.

Hahaha i'll be monitoring you closely

[milmascaras1]

why is khan getting so much love for agreeing to fight maidana? he's supposed to fight these top fighters! he's a friggin' champion for christ sakes! he's finally facing a legitimately dangerous top ten fighter in maidana.

frankly, i think khan will probably outpoint maidana because of his speed but maidana will always be dangerous with that power.

I think that if (when) Khan beats Maidana most people will simply acknowledge the truth, that he's a one-dimensional slugger with average boxing skills and a big punch. Khan is simply a better fighter in nearly all aspects of the game, the only concern is his chin. I expect him to stop Maidana.

For what it's worth, I think Ortiz would have been a much sterner test for Khan, even though he lost to Maidana.
