    Only way Maidina wins is if Khan makes a mistake which he shouldnt now.

    anyone who has experience and studied fighting will tell you Khan wins by TKO or UD.

    it is too hard, i repeat too hard for a one dimensional big puncher to land Flush against a fast skilled boxer.

    Yeah, there's NO WAY Khan could get touched by a mediocre boxer, I mean NO WAY.

    Paulie isn't nearly as fast as he used to be, and even with very little power after their fight, Khans face looked like he was fighting Tyson...Maidana will KO Khan within 7...probably within 3. Khans head movement and footwork are ****...Roach or not...hes still very hittable!...should be a good fight to watch!

    So compubox will have a record 0 power-punches landed by Maidana by the end of this fight, correct?

    Khan should win but people act like it's impossible to touch a better opponent. Maidana is not one-dimensional; he's a slugger with some decent skills which aren't the sharpest but definitely help his pressure, along with decent handspeed. Khan may very well outspeed and outskill Maidana but to pretend he has no chance of losing is delusional. Similar conversations concerning Maidana's chances would be happening if Khan had just a mediocre chin simply due to Maidana's power, let alone Khan's unproven 140 jaw.

    Mayorga/Forrest is the comparison I make. Sometimes fighters do what they shouldn't.

    Perfect test for Khan at this stage of his career. This should tell us whether he has improved punch resistance and/or improved his defense. Can't wait.

    Or some "boxers" do what they shouldn't but I agree and that's not a bad comparison. The better boxer doesn't always beat the slugger.

    Exaggerating just a tad, don't you think? What a lazy, inaccurate assessment of Khan's development. Sure, his face was marked-up but then again Paulie has pretty decent hand-speed. A hell of a lot faster than Maidana. As for his footwork and general ring-craft, Khan is a completely different boxer under Roach. His punch resistance though will always be his achilles heel.........

    I think if Khan stays on his feet, he'll win by ud. I doubt he'll win by ko cause he'll be running around the ring like he did vs Kotelnik. It will be boring to watch but i guess a win it's a win right?

    In the rematch Forrest fought scared big time. He run around the ring refuse to stay on his pocket vs Mayorga. Khan will do the exact same thing but he'll win it if he stays on his feet.

    Khans not the finished article, he can be hit and is sloppy from at times too, its an interesting fight. If khan can manouver around maidana all night without taking many hard shots i would be suprised, its whether maidana can really land flush on the chin is the question. At the moment khan is looking good and maidana struggled a little bit in his last fight so its natural to put khan as the guy to win

    Yeah Khan is untouchable.

    Pernell, Benitez, Mayweather Jr & Locche all rolled into one.

    He's the GOAT.

    It's rediculous to say that there is "No way" for him to win. I definitely think Khan is going to win but Maidana definitely has a good chance, especially with his power and Khan's chin.
