    They sure would be. Like ortiz, then golden boy would have to rebuild which eer one loses

    You cant tain a chin. I just dont think maidana is all that great either. Goes down himself. We will find out in just over a month

    How many times has Maidana been knocked down, and did he look like a newborn Giraffe when he did?

    Kevin Kelley said that when Maidana hit him, it felt like getting kicked. He also called him the hardest hitter that he's ever been in the ring with. (Granted, he's shot now, but I trust him to know how hard someone hits him.) I've also seen people post on this forum about going to Maidana's fights to watch him live, and how even the sound of his punches sound different. I've only seen his match with Ortiz, but what I saw there reinforces my belief that Maidana really is one of the hardest hitters around right now...he also looks relentless, and I believe that he has underrated speed, too. (If he was so slow, Ortiz would have definitely made him look it, even if he unwisely chose to infight rather than box on the outside.)

    Very risky fight for the chinny Khan. I'm interested to see what happens here. If Maidana does knock him out, I don't think his career would be over, though. Getting KO'd by a big puncher isn't something to retire over, unless he gets seriously hurt.

    He didnt look that shaky, but he went down a couple of times in the ortiz fight. I'm not saying maidana cant knock him down. He can it could go either way. But I think Khan can take this fight

    Lazarus comes back to the board as Lazarexaurus and pumps up the return of Khan against some dough fisted 140'er.

    i wouldnt put Terry Norris in the same class of chinny as Amir Khan only after being knocked out by Julian Jackson one of the hugest punchers in boxing pound 4 pound he went on to fight and had huge success against mainly welterweights maybe late in his carrier did Teery lose his legs a

    He's only 23, so he would go enroll at the local university after the fight.

    You guys are crazy if you think getting brutally knocked out AGAIN at such a young age won't set him back. He would have to take a lot of time to rebuild his confidence and can kiss a Mayweather fight goodbye. GBP would feed him light punchers, and fans would have to accept that this guy is never going to be THE ELITE OF THE ELITE.

    Anyways, Young "Bankroll" Khan KTFO Maidana!

    Listen mate, Maidana has been down more than 5 times easrly on in his career against even shittier opposition and thts not counting the ortiz fight.

    Regarding the amateurs, please, that doesnt hold any water. For eg, khan never was stunned or put down by kendalin in 3 fights that they had, but kendalin ktfo gavin in just 2 rounds. Does that mean gavin's got a shittier chin? Karl Place was seen doin the rubby ducky against an awful journeyman who hit him a shot which didnt even look that hard. Does that mean hes chinny?. You dont understand what its like being in the ring weight drained and what it does to you physically. Take the cotto-malignaggi bout for instance, the same malignaggi who is the definition of feather fisted rocked cotto in their bout, simply due to him not being comfortable at that weight.

    oh btw if ur a hater ignore all the above.

    Khan is definitely going to stop Maidana.

    I still think there is somthing suspicious in the background politics of this fight.

    Maidana has the power to KTFO Khan and the rest of the 140ers. So what if Khan got his glass chin back? he'll always fight another day, he's too young for an early retirement.
