Read Khan'a asked Goldenboy because Marquez is fighting Katsidis plus boxrec have it as well .Props to Khan if he fights Maidana and doesn't go after a lightweight.Who you's got ? This content is protected This content is protected
Khan by absolute humiliation of the Argentine plodder. Can't wait for this fight as it'll shut up a lot of the idiots who think Maidana is any good. Khan mid-late TKO in a one-sided beatdown. Then, bring on the winner of Bradley-Alexander!:yep
I like Khan as well man and will route for him .One thing I like tho is a competitive match up .This is a fight that will have me on the edge of my seat no matter what way it goes .We'll see how Maidana does against Corley this weekend then can see how I see it going
Maidana is slow, wide-open and also doesn't have the best chin himself. Khan is not only much bigger than Maidana, he is a lot faster, has greater accuracy, has a ramrod jab, and now under Roach he sticks to gameplans. Maidana is there to exploit, man. Maidana has a puncher's chance and that's it, IMO. We've yet to see how Khan can take a clean punch at 140 so there's always that angle to make the fight interesting, but I see Khan completely outclassing the plodder. Hope the fight happens:bbb.
this fight aint happening last time they had JMM lined up he pulled and they got Paulie Maidana is always the 2nd option,
Khans had it all his own way in recent fights. Be interesting to see if he can stick to a game plan after getting hurt. Khans jab was quite impressive(Paulie) but I still think there's room for improvement. I dont think its at 'ramrod' status yet...thats the kind of tag i'd only associate with the Winky Wrights of the world.
He's a big banger tho Maidana man .27 ko's in 28 fights .1 loss to Kotelnik .Styles make fights he boxed well and showed heart against Ortiz [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OY2ByuLKXS4[/ame]
It's because Maidanas heart and power man I give props where it's deserved not biased .He got hurt badly and kept getting caught with the straight right hand
Khan's jab has been improving ever since he's been with Roach. I think it's safe to say that after the fight against Malignaggi, Khan's jab is one of the best weapons in his growing arsenal. Having your own way against Kotelnik (a win that has been massively underrated since the scorecards were read out on the night) and Malignaggi shows that Khan has already beaten far superior fighters than Maidana. Those two wins are solid and shouldn't be discredited, IMO. Maidana is a step back, IMO. He may well be, but he's there to be picked apart, IMO. Khan completely outclasses Maidana in this fight.
Tbh i could see a big build up on here and on TV. Then Maidana is on his arse within opening 30 seconds and on verge of getting blitzed. Khan would try start fast and take advantage of Maidana's frailties. If he lets him off hook it could then come back to haunt him.
You think mate? I think Kahn would get the ear muffs on, play the long game, poke the jab, pile up the points and take the stoppage if and when it presents itself. Why give Maidana a chance early on to land a bomb when you have other options to win the fight?
It really annoys me when people completely disregard Khan's wins over Kotelnik and Mallignagi, both are good fighters in their prime and both are good wins for Khan. I really hope this fight happens it will tell us a lot about Khan.
Defo...there's NO CHANCE Khan will fire in early. He''ll fight and deploy the same tactics that Wladimir uses. Break down his opponent and when he presents no danger, get more adventurous
Yep man he needs the right tune ups at the right time .British fans give him credit and just his fans plus I like him as well .Thing is tho alot of world boxing fans won't till he fights his mandatorys .Because Marquez ain't a top contender at 140 .Khan Casamayor would be good as well I think .Just Khan probably wouldn't get credit for it because Casamayors a lightweight .Mayweather as well when he was fighting Marquez also Haye as well , Audley man .Getting laughed at ducking .Maidanas got 27 ko's in 28 fights man .Malignaggi 5 in 27 .Think there is any ducking ? Truth be it man the mandatory deserves his shot .All props to Khan if he fights him .I wouldn't disrespect him anyway .Salita and Kotelnik where decent wins
