First off, I use to a Maidana fan but after this fight, I've lost a bit respect for Chino.
1st round: Pure bitch move for swinging when Khan wanted to touch gloves.
Throughout the fight, when Ortiz told them to break, Maidana through at least 3-4 punches after being told to break. He did this entire fight.
When Ortiz took away the point from Maidana for throwing the elbow, i thought he was nuts...then I saw the slo-mo instant reply and could not beleive Maidana would do something so stupid!
It was a great fight but Maidana is something else...had the fight been a 15 rounder like back in the day, Khan would have been finished but the kid pulled through.
Can't remember who said this but "Khan has world class abilities with world class flaws" his chin is MUCH better then everyone expected, (myself included) but he needs to shore up his defence a bit more.
