    The 3 judges scored it:

    114-111 to Khan
    114-111 to Khan
    113-112 to Khan

    Lederman had it:

    114-111 to Khan

    Maidana stole a couple of the middle rounds, and the last three where he had Khan seriously hurt, but couldn't finish him. Considering the knockdown and the legit point deduction, Khan had the fight in the bag easily (apart from being ****ed in the last 3).

    The judges scorecards were:

    114-111 to Khan
    114-111 to Khan
    113-112 to Khan

    How the **** could it be a draw or a narrow decision for Maidana? If there wasn't a point deduction, Khan still would have won by:

    114-112 to Khan
    114-112 to Khan
    113-113 draw

    So even the excuse of "oh, the point deduction lost it for Maidana!" falls flat on its face. Face it, Khan stood up to Maidana's shots, knocked him down in the process, and won more rounds than he did. He was the better man on the night, and deserved the win, point deduction or not!

    It was a good close fight that everyone enjoyed watching. It's reasonable for Maidana to want a rematch. Who wouldn't want to see a rematch?

    its fine Maidana wanting a rematch.

    but hes being so ****in classless and petty about it. its his OWN fault he didnt take khan out in the 10th. He needs to STFU and be humble.

    Even without the deduction, Khan still would have won the fight!

    He also conveniently forgets he was pretty much saved by the bell in round 1. Hes LUCKY. Else he would have had a KO1 on his record

    Yep, and I had read several online reports of the fight, where writers had scored it for Khan by that margin too. The closest score I've read on this fight, is 113-112 to for Khan, and this was by one of the judges. Not a single well-known writer/reporter had it for Maidana. Only the butt-hurt forum posters claim a scorecard in favour of Maidana, and even then they had to insist on removing the point deduction.

    I honestly don't believe it's him behind his Twitter. I believe it's his **** Manager that nearly started trading punches in the ring after the fight.

    Maidana generally seems like a bit of a *****. BS worships him.

    exactly Rico.

    Maidana had khan hurt badly in the 10th and half over 2 minutes to close the show!

    If he was a better finisher he could have won the fight. no one ROBBED him.

    Ive not read a single credible report where anyone claims maidana was robbed, or even feels maidana deserved a draw.

    Khan clearly won the fight.

    He needs to remember hes lucky he wants KO'd in round 1

    His manager didn't start the bust up in the ring. It was between Ariz and Diaz. That manager - Asif Ali (?) - just happened to be in the ring when it happened, and the posters here claim he must have started it.

    It's pathetic, Solid. For every 'ifs' and 'buts' they come out with in favour of Maidana, you can come out with the **** in favour of Khan. It was that kind of fight where a lot of drama was involved - fouls, knockdowns etc - and it's impossible to claim one guy benefited more than the other.

    No, I'm talking about Maidana's Manager. He's a crazy guy himself. I remember seeing him at the Press Conference in London. The guy has as many Tats, if not more, than Maidana :lol:.

    If you see in the picture below: The one putting his fists up is his Manager. I believe he is behind Maidana's Twitter, because he speaks very fluent English. Maidana can't speak an ounce of it.
