    I just watched fight again and can't believe he survived that tenth round so credit to him.

    I had him a comfortable UD winner last night for his early work and haven't changed my mind after rewatching BUT I think Maidana got the better of him physically in the fight overall - if you know what I mean here Apart from first Maidana wasnt really in trouble - and I am still amazed he managed to get up from that body shot !

    I think he will have an easier time against Bradley than he did last mind
    I don't disagree. Bradley doesn't have much punching power and Khan will fight at range. I think I favor him against Bradley right now although I'll be rooting for Bradley.

    I agree that I thought he would have an easier time with Maidana after seeing him have easier times with Kotelnik (who beat Maidana) and Paulie who is a better boxer than Maidana. That is why I think punchers are always going to be tough for Khan for some reason.

    I like Khan against Marquez at 140.

    Did someone really suggest Maidana against Berto at 147? That's ridiculous. Maidana should try and secure a rematch with Khan or the loser of the Bradley/Devon fight. Moving up to fight Berto would be moronic at this point.

    I disagree that he would have an easier time with Bradley. I disagree greatly with that.

    It isn't because of Bradley's power that he would trouble Khan, it is Bradley's counter punching in combination with his smart aggression and 'shock' power. He is a very good aggressive counter puncher with decent speed and straighter punches then Maidana. And one of Bradley's money punches is a counter left hook which Khan has been troubled by in the past.

    I think Bradley is very rough style wise for Khan. Khan would have an easier time with Alexander than he would with Bradley
