Khan v Maidana Back On .........

[eagle]

Respect for Khan if he takes this fight, win lose or draw. I for one think he outboxes Maidana.

If Khan takes this fight it's a step in the right direction and I'll give him a lot of credit win or lose.

I don't know, but I'm slowly starting to take a liking to this kid. Maybe because he's so chinny and could get sparked out, but has the ability to outbox most guys out there, until he meets the elite of the elite or an banger that catches him clean, which in a way makes his fights exciting.


As a lot of people have said, he could outbox Maidana for an wide UD or gets caught slipping and then it's over. But this is a good match.

This is a great match-up but it's being made bigger than it really is by all the Khan haters/dectrators. All those people will rubbish Maidana as a crude talentless slugger should Khan beat him.

Khan has a china-chin. It's a fact. Whether he beats Maidana or not isn't changing that fact.

Fenster, why not just say your usual "Khan has a china-chin. Fact." Are you moving away from the "fact"?

Those are we in the states call haters. I'm not huge on Khan but I'm not a hater by any means. Maidana is a legitimate fighter. He makes up for his undeveloped skills with his power and relentlessness. Khan may lack a chin but he may be able to finetune his style such that it doesn't come into play much and beat fighters like Maidana. Unfortunately, I pick Maidana to beat Khan.

"Fact" should only be used for opinions not facts. Khan's fragile chin is a real fact.

My point is, the Khan haters are only crying for this fight because they think he will be knocked out. IF that doesn't happen the haters will simply write Maidana off as a crap boxer. They wont give Khan his due.

All sensible fans (like yourself) will obviously give Khan big credit should he win this fight.
