GR8 Britain vs The World - Khan v Maidana - Chisora v Klitschko..... etc

[OumaFan]

Cortez should be taken out to pasture. That was dreadful.

Regardless I kind of like Khan. Heart and balls arent' his problem. Too much nervous energy and a tendency to get wild are.

[generalbulldog]

that was amazing!

Agreed. And I'm pretty sure Miles would have rooted for Khan if he was Palestinian.

[Kev]

Stop trying to touch gloves Amir!!

He's acting like this is a sparring session with that shit.

I just think he was so dazed and confused he had no idea what he was doing. How he survived that I do not know. He was out on his feet for about 4 rounds

Yep or Iranian.

[superheavyrhun]

What a performance. Rematch! I think Khan probably gets away with that one. I think both guys deserve a beer after that one. Maidana took some massive shots, as did Khan. Thought we might have a quick night after Round 1, and thought a KO was imminent at least four or five times during the fight too.

[Kev]

He definitely won the fight. Hope he doesn't get robbed. Maidana is a fucking beast though.

[ICB]

Maidana smothered his work he should of finished him, good performance from Khan regarding heart and will. But i still think the big boys will beat him, and i don't even know if he would take Prescott in a rematch to be honest.

I think he's used to getting buzzed by Pacquiao and was responding as he would in that case.

[Gandalf]

Khan did nothing but hold in the final 4 rounds. In fact he should have been warned for it and some of those rounds were so dominant that Maidana should have 10-8 rounds in his favour.

Cortez should be taken out by Mossad.

THey can't rob him, Maidana lost two points b/c of the KD and Cortez.

[CFH]

There needs to be a rematch.

[OumaFan]

I didn't really score it. I thought Maidana won the last three rounds with a 10-8 but not sure how many other than that. I'm sure Khan will get the decision.

[tomcy03]

Crackin fight, happy to stay up and watch something of that quality.

Khan moreorless punch perfect the 1st 8/9 rounds, interesting end and definitely showed he can stand up to some power now.

Khan has NUTS!

[Kev]

How can you not love Amir Khan seriously. He just became my favourite fighter tonight.

People demanded he fought a puncher. He fought the best one in the divison and he went to war.

All heart.

He probably has brain damage now but that amazing.

Fight of the Year hands down for me. That was the most nerve jangly fight since Frank Bruno managed to survive and win a heavyweight title at the 19th attempt against Oliver McCall.

It looks like your pictures froze during a clinch, because I saw him go from shaky, to rattling Maidana, to shaky, and back to rattling Maidana again.

Khan makes for great viewing, he's vulnerable enough to get rattled, but Roach has got him able to overcome being rattled, and survive. Just.
