I don't think you have to be a Khan fanboy to acknowledge that Kotelnik and Matthyssé beat Alexander - you just have to be able to accurately score fights.
Dude alexander maidana was at 147 with 10 round AND Alexander is a southpaw, which almost removes Maidana's overhand right from bieng usefull... +maidana is better at 140... Khan did 12 round @ 140 with maidana, which is the harder fight.. Khan would hit harder @ 147 just like alexander. Khan Still beats Bradley & Alexander in my books... Won peterson fight by 1point. Styles makes fights. However props to alexander from after the 4th round he showed some nice skills. shame he seems to start slow. Khan would expliot that slow start What does maidana have? He is a tough SOB with great power @ 140... @ 147 his power is pretty much the same as is it is at 140...
Was saying how overrated Maidana was since before the Khan fight. Everyone talking ****, saying that he was this and that. Even his power is grossely overrated and that's his main asset. :-( Now you know. And yes, it does make Khan look bad. Struggling against the likes of Maidana and losing to Petereson and GoldenBoy want to make him the next super fight cash cow? Please.
I have been saying it forever, Khan is garbage across the board. He fights like a robotic amateur, has no power, his footwork is garbage unless he is going backwards in which case he looks like a track star, and most importantly, he does not have any semblance of a Chin. Maidana is one of the most overrated fighters in the business, particularly his power. He hit Alexander flush with some decent shots and they had zero effect. Those same punches had Khan on Bambi legs doing everything he could to say upright. What a joke Khan is.
I hate khan but I still think he beats Alexander easily either wide decision or tko. Alexander dominated but all he did was hug when maidana was close. I'm still not so sure he can take a punch against a full welterweight like mike Jones or even brook. Everyone jumping on Alexander being all good again til he gets beat again then he's just another hype job. IMO
Khan makes a lot of mistakes , that going backwards to make space really is a negative look. I know he isnt , but it looks like he is running away , all his opponent needs to do is keep jabbing as peterson did and then Khan loses the round.
Khan sucks and Maidana is the best opponent on his resume. I suppose you'll point to his epic wins over feather fisted Kotelnik and Malignaggi, though. Oh wait, no, even better, how about when he beat the corpse of Barrera or that destruction of world-renowned Super Glass Judah.atsch Khan is a joke and the most coddled fighter in Boxing today. I cannot wait to see his British Glass Shatter again.
everyone who thinks that last nights fight makes khan look bad must believe in the "you're only as good as your last fight" thinking two words: andriy kotelnik
