Fight was alot closer than i remember, had Macos Maidana not of had a point deducted. It would of been a draw IMO. No way Amir Khan won any of the championship rounds, i don't know what some of you guys are watching.

Amir Khan basically was on the backfoot the whole round, and except for a few flurries. Marcos Maidana was the aggressor and outlanded Amir Khan, and controlled the round more.
I think you need some glasses mate. No way Maidana won round 11. Landed practically nothing. Khan landed one spectacular uppercut and around 3 or 4 flurries.
Well i could say the same mate, i think Marcos Maidana for certain won the championship rounds no question. Just my opinion and the punchstats mean nothing.

Infact this fight scoring wise reminded me of ODLH vs Felix Trinidad. ODLH with a 6 rounds to 3 lead going into the last 3 rounds. With Felix Trinidad sweeping the last 3 rounds making it a draw in most people's eyes.

And going by the punchstats in that fight. You'd think ODLH won by a landslide. But the rounds Marcos Maidana won he may of not landed loads of punches, except in the 10th round.

But he was rocking and reeling Amir Khan in the rounds he won, and the rounds he did win were quite clear rounds. Just like Amir Khan's rounds he won, and Bilbo seems to be right with the 11th round being the most debatable.

But no doubt in my mind that Marcos Maidana won the last 3 rounds.
