    It proved his chin to some extent, yes. But in terms of technical ability he didn't perform well.

    He barely has any technical ability.

    I think Ortiz would spark Khan out based on what I saw of them both last night. He needs to fight Tim Bradley before focusing on 147. Moving up is something he can do win or lose.

    He wasn't blitzing Maidana for the first 6 at all. I'm pretty sure I gave Maidana 2 of the first 6.

    He didn't look great, no. He struggled to control range in a fight where he really should have been. When you're nearly knocked out in the rounds you lose no it's not good.

    It was a great atmosphere, no fights that i saw, i was sitting around lots of Irish fans all of them were great, and were just there to support their man and have a good time, which the amount of drinking at the bars outside the arena i think they did.

    Levels also make fights. Khan should've taken McCloskey out.

    Some people were doing that as well but that was only because Maidana started becoming more competetive in comparison to the one sided onslaught of the first 2 rounds. If you watch it again. then honestly youll agree. Anyway, its a minute point

    I understand that. I know McCloskey made Khan miss a lot of times but one of my concerns is the way he would lunge forward w/ his combos and leaving himself wide open for a counter punch. He needs to address that if he wants to be successful, especially in the WW div.

    I don't need to. Timmy's already miles up on the scorecards before he accidentally drops the nut.
