    Even though Khan has already beat Maidana?

    Is Maidana rated simply becuase he beat Bronner? Isn't Bronner just a bit overrated?

    Didn't a fat Morales nearly beat Maidana?

    Seriously
    There is that arguement.

    Then theres the arguement of:-

    1. Khan has never fought at 147
    2. Khan has lost two of his biggest fights at 140.
    3. Khans last wins were against lightweights
    4. Khan nearly lost in last fight to a past prime by 8 yrs lightweight.
    5. Khan hasnt fought for ten months
    6. Khan is a spoilt brat.
    7. Khan has never avenged his losses.
    1. Maidana hasnt done well at 147.
    2. Maidana lost 2 of his biggest fights at 140 including to Khan
    3. If u want to call Diaz a lightweight, then Maidana's last win was against a Super-Feather
    4. Maidana bearly beat Morales who is about 10 years past his prime
    5. Maidana has never avenged his losses
    It's all about what's fresh in peoples minds. Maidana just came off a huge, entertaining, and emphatic win over a big name opponent that was supposed to be the next big thing. He is on a 4 fight win streak...most by KO/TKO. Khan has not looked impressive in a LONG time...even when he has won. Add to it that people are overselling Khan's PPV popularity (he is not Hatton)...Maidana deserves this fight.
    Its the freshness that people have remembered and making a story of how big bro will be defending lil bro will add to the all access episodes and increase sales.

    Maidana has slightly improved though..
    Cant change khan.
    Perhaps khan should be fighting maidana in may.
    I agree with your last statement. Truth be told I don't think either of them deserve this fight. I was just making the point that most of the things you said about Khan you could also say about Maidana. The only reason Maidana's win against Broner was considered such an upset is that he'd choked in every big fight previous to this. Boxers generally make him look stupid. Khan isn't going to improve, you're right, but he is electric on the attack and his fights are almost always exciting. I don't get all the hate with him. He's entertaining. As a boxing fan you should love guys who are all or nothing like him.

    How much longer can they wait to announce his next fight ? I'm starting to think he might pull out and just fight in September

    I do like khan and he is exciting.

    I just feel that a boxers age isnt always prime related.

    Khan has been in some tough battles and the biggest point for me as someone mentioned is the fact he chose to sat on his arse for ten months and expect the mayweather fight.

    Your right, they both dont deserve it but this is all we have right now.

    Maidana does deserve the fight. He just beat up Adrian Broner. Anyway why does anyone have to be deserving to fight Mayweather. If you are fighting at world championship level in the toughest divisions in boxing you deserve whatever match up comes your way.
