Amir Khan vs Marcos Maidana Spoliers............

[Violent Demise]

Views on both fighters

Con's jaw has gone from regular glass to tempered glass. It's an improvement. But regardless it's still glass. I don't think that will ever change. Con who posses a skill set that is top 5 in all of boxing did himself a great disservice when he stopped going to the body. After the 3rd I don't think he threw another body shot. He would of finished the fight early if he did. His speed and skills have never been questioned. But he showed his weakness mentally when he allowed Maidana to fight his fight. Con went from fighting to win the fight to fighting to not get hit. It's what led to some running at the end of the fight. Con I think is able to control a fight for the whole 12 rounds against a non-puncher. But I don't think he can do it with a puncher. Cuz it seems the possibility of him being knocked out plays in his head. And it shows

Maidana is Maidana. The man just wants to hit something. What you see is what you get. He won't change. He'll continue to take punches and swing for the fences. He'll continue to have success against glass jaw fighters like Con and weak minded ones like Ortiz. But somebody with a good chin and a little bit of skill will always beat him.

I personally have no problem with Maidana's actions. Boxing is boxing. It ain't tennis or golf where muthafukkas need to keep quiet. One of the rules in Boxing is "protect yourself at all times". There's a reason they have that rule. And another thing is Con was completely over doing it with glove taps. He was trying to touch gloves it seem after every break. Maidana was right when he pretty much told him "fuck you and your glove". In case people didn't notice, Maidana did embrace Con prior to the 12th round. When it was the time to do it. If Maidana would of hit him there than yeah it would be a low cheap shot. A bitch move. But he didn't. Bottom line Maidana touched gloves/acknowledged Con when he had to. He didn't have to them others times. No friends between the ropes

This post is too sensible for you. Stop being boring. I don't want to waste my time reading your rubbish if there's nothing to argue about. Fact.

I agree, I dont think this is the same guy from a few years ago. This guy is on the slide, clearly past his prime.

No doubt Violent D seen better days. Off line activities have taken it's toll on him. But he still remains a top off the line poster. Sadly the same can't be said about Rains. A poster who can never be called washed up. You actually got to be good at one time to be called washed up
