Amir Khan v Marcos Maidana 2

Khan is on slide, he's not active enough. Maidana beats Khan this time around

 

That's a bit like saying IF Ian Huntley didnt **** little kids he would be a good bloke

He can't help but trade and will not just keep things at range because going to war is intrinsic to him

Unfortunately true.

 

Wouldn't want this fight again as a Brit. Khan last time won a close decision and was lucky to not be stopped in the 10th round. Khan isn't the same fighter anymore. He should chase the Floyd fight and not care what the thanks thing. He will make loads of money v Floyd and Floyd isn't a big puncher. He can't fight Bradley because of the politics, doesn't want Brook if Brook wins the IBF. I've just stated why he should fight Maidana, so Floyd is the best option for a world title.

 

maidana of today beats khan of today especially at 147
only a fool would think otherwise

 

Khan should have been stopped in the first fight imo,he was lucky to survive.

Maidana would flatten him at WW.

 

Maidana didn't deal with Khan's speed too well in the first fight.

If Khan hadn't got all macho wanting to trade he would have run out a comfortable winner.

Maidana is an a nice run now though and his confidence will be high. It's a good matchup for me and I wouldn't see a walk over for either man.

 

Was way before the Broner fight I said that

Maidana looked good against Karass, Khan looked terrible against Diaz thats when most said Maidana would win the rematch

That bodyshot took alot out of Maidana if Khan doesnt land it again hes gonna be in trouble, oh yeah Khan isnt with Ariza so he wont stand up to any big shots

 

Man you havn't got a clue about boxing if you think Maidana hasnt improved drastically in his last 3 or 4 fights,he was doing things in the Broner fight Ive never seen from him in the past.Stepping around Broner and using angles,mixing it up to head and body with every attack pushing the jab at the right times.In the Khan fight he was just coming forward in straight lines and getting picked off,relying too much on his power.Id say hes one of the most improved fighters in the game right now."He just uses the jab a little more"?

atsch

 

Khan rarely throws body shots,you'd think after hurting Maidana and stopping Zab to the body hed concentrate on that aspect of his game a little more.

Dont get it.

Maidana would ice him if they fought again.

 

Maidana is still very basic. He has a jab, a quality left hook and a chopping over hand right. He used the uppercuts more against Broner.

All in all I saw Maidana's punching being the same as it always is..

Maidana looked great because he seriously hurt Broner in the 2nd and 8th and Broner never recover from these KD's. Horrible fight by Broner making Maidana look like the second coming. I'm not getting carried away yet though.

 

Its not the punches he uses its the way he sets them,using range and angles I also noticed a lot of upper body movement from him which I have never seen before.

To say Broner made him look good is ridiculous,Maidana fought a great fight simple as that.

 

We are talking about the 'current' Amir Khan aren't we? The Amir Khan who has declined since leaving Roach, who is caught between two styles, who still has no ring IQ and who spends hardly anytime at Hunters gym?

 

Maidana beats Khan if they fight again, but Maidana is still a very basic fighter. Yes he has made some improvements but he aint no sugar ray is he

 

one thing i will say that is worrying aout khan is the way he circles around the ring in a clockwise fashion
