    Khan 10th round TKO.

    After softening Maidana up and dropping him a few times he will force a TKO stoppage.

    I give Maidana KO 20% chance
    Khan TKO 40%
    Khan UD 40%

    50% Maidana T/KO
    45% Khan points
    4% Khan T/KO
    1% any other outcome

    Really! :hey

    I think if Khan doesn't fight very, very careful he gets sparked himself.
    And I don't think Khan has a big chance to T/KO Maidana from behind the jab.

    Khan will most likely be running all night and jabbing Maidana...how the **** is he getting the TKO like that? If Khan tries to get too agressive, BOOM! right hand lands flush on that chin, and Khan gets sent to another dimension.

    As for the thread question: BRUTAL KO by Maidana.

    The problem with that as opposed to betting on the outcome is that two peoples opinion of what he did in the fight can be very subjective.

    I have not met a single trainer in the last 3 months who's opinion I value that hasn't said that Khan will be boxing smart, hit and move relying heavily on his jab and speed. The alternative is utter stupidity and completely unnecessary.. why go in there and take such risks when you have a guy you can box rings around for 12 rounds and take an easy victory at the same time coming out unscathed... you only have to think logically to know how this fight will be fought

    what gloves will they be wearing?
    10oz instead of usual 8oz right?
    so Khan should win by UD.

    What they mean by running is that Khan isn't going to be stood engaging with Maidana.
    He is going to be keeping at distance and fighting from there, if that means moving backward to keep that range then that is what he'll do.

    Maybe, but weren't you one of the Chisora T/KO voters? :think

    I feel the same way. Khan possesses the offensive tools to bust Maidana up and stop him. However, in order to do that, he would have to open it up and let his hands go and accept the corresponding risk of getting caught in an exchange.

    I could be wrong, but I do not see Khan opting for that. Instead, I imagine he'll keep his gloves fastened to his face and attempt to keep Maidana at arm's length with his snappy, speedy jab.
