    Ok, I will give you that Roach and Warren were saying that. But nobody wants to see this fight. People would rather see Khan fight Paulie Mallignaggi.

    I don't care for either fighter. But for the record, Khan is a title holder not a World Champion.

    If Khan takes this fight and wins, this puts away the Presscot demons IMO

    Khan is a free agent, he can more or less fight who he wants if Roach gives the O.K.

    I think Khan has the skills to beat Maidana. It's not hard to figure him out, all you gotta do is stick and move and use your reach. Ortiz was doing this for a little bit until he got brave and decided to slug with a slugger.

    Yeah with right gameplan of stick and move Khan will box and frustrate Maidana who will find it hard to land clean. Even if Ortiz kept his distance and boxed Maidana and not trying to go toe to toe he would of won. Roach will make sure Khan dont make them mistakes.

    one fight maybe, but there's also several months of training that go in there. Most of a fighter's improvement is done in the gym although certain aspects can only be learned in the ring.

    A fighter isn't that much better 12 hours after a fight than he was 12 hours before. 10 months of world class training for a 23 year old can make a world of difference though.
