The 3rd could have gone to Kahn, maybe the 6th as well, but I wouldn't complain about someone giving Maidana a 10-8 for the tenth. I don't understand people saying Kahn won the 11th, seemed like a clear Maidana round to me. Anyway, close fight.

 

:huh

show us your round by round

 

I was somewhere in this area.

Kahn was lucky it wasn't a 15 round fight, or he would have been whipped.

He would have gone done if it were not for the holding.

 

:deal
SPOT ON

 

Well i think the tenth should be scored objectively 10-8. Less one-sided rounds were scored like that in the past, and this was as dominant as u can get without the kd.
Till the last seconds of the 12th i thought it was also a 10-8 maidana round, but brave amir prevented that from happening by closing the show with his own flurries. Wouldnt change the official result tho

 

I'll rewatch round 11 some time tomorrow and give you my analysis on it.

 

Easy 7-5 to Kahn minus the point deduction......possibly even 8-4.

 

Rounds 1,2,3,5,8 and 9 to Khan.

Rounds 4,6,7,10,11,and 12 to Maidana.

I had it 113-112 for Khan, the point deduction by Cortez which I felt was bogus, was the difference on my card.


There is just absolutely no way that Khan merits winning any of the last three rounds, those clearly were Maidana's.
