Amir Khan or Marcos Maidana

Marcos Maidana by K.O.

 

Amir Khan boxes the living tits off Maidana

If he gets caught he's out though

 

+1

 

It's a pretty safe assumtion to make since Khan's been acting like his chin is made of wet toilet paper ever since the Prescott debacle, backpedaling like a mother****er against a super careful fighter will mediocre pop like Kotelnik, and hit and holding relentlessly against a guy like Malignaggi.

The people that are predicting a Khan KO against Maidana are seriously out to lunch. He's going to employ major spoiling tactics in order to try and survive, there will be no chance for him to knock out Maidana. In the end though it won't matter because Khan's going to taste the canvas before the fight's half way finished.

 

I see Khan boxing circles around Maidana and getting the clear UD. However, there will be moments of anxiety when Maidana gets close or even inside...

 

Khan ate 17 Pacquiao haymakers in sparring. He's more than ready for Maidana.

"I took Manny's best shots."

:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

 

How do you know that he is "10x stronger" than he used to be?

Moreover, since when did Khan morph into the second coming of Sweet Pea-- aka some sort of defensive wizard? Khan is indisputably superior in terms of hand speed and all-around ring craft, but it is not as if his defense is impentratable.

If Maidana can find the mark against Ortiz, what makes you so sure he will be shut out against Khan? Is Khan that much of a better defensive fighter than Victor? And if he's not, what makes you think he can withstand the punches??

 

I'm going with Khan by stoppage, it could be a Salita type scenario where he is just too sharp and fast for Maidana to cope with early and with the wba 3 knockdown rule in effect this could end in the early rounds, either that or Khan will jab his head off for 8 or 9 rounds before the ref stops it.

 

Unlike PW, Khan knows how to use his height and reach. Also, he's got that stinging jab and a fast combination that will make Maidana think twice before barreling in there. Maidana is a KO artist for sure but he's also easy to hit. A lot of people under estimate Khan's power. IMO, Khan will win by UD or TKO.

 

It's either Khan by UD, or Maidana by KO

 

So are you trying to insinuate that a lack of strength and or conditioning led to Victor's demise against Maidana?? :rofl Those shots he was absorbing had nothing to do it with it, eh?

Who says that Khan is "far more" talented than Ortiz?? I rate him higher, yes, but not by the leaps and bounds you evidently do.

Sure, Victor traded too frequently with Maidana for his own good. However, to suggest he simply tried to "walk through" Maidana is ridiculous.

Finally, you avoided my question: Maidana landed on Ortiz. Do you believe that Khan's "hands glued to his chin" defense makes him impervious to Maidana's offense to the extent that his jaw won't be tested even once??

What do you suspect happens when Maidana finds the mark??
