With amir khan linkly to move up to the welter weight division ater bradley maidana might have to follow him up there to get a re match. how do you compare maidana's power to the top welter weights of recent times? can he dominate with his power in that division? alright he didn't ko khan but khan ran for 12 rounds( rightly so) against guys like bert and mosley he's connect with more shots. maidana vs cotto maidan vs mosley maidana vs berto maidana vs brook maidana vs pacqiuao
I personally feel Ortiz would be the guy who would carry his power the best out of the 140 pounders. He is naturally much bigger than the 140 guys. He already comes into the ring at near 160 pounds when weighing in at 140. Also his power and speed combination is good. The only problem is i dont think he could take a WW punch. Maidanas power is good and yes it would bother the 147 but not as much. With a good conditioning coach he could probably get his body ready for 147 though.
