    Can I ask how you scored round 10?

    Yeah, just as I thought, you probably watched the wrong round. Remember, it was round 10.

    You'll find Maidana landing more than just two flush power shots. But if the action is too quick for you, then maybe the slow motion replays at the end of the round will help you count a little better. In them alone you see 6 power-shots landing on him. And even if we include your criteria of leverage, no body shots, no short hooks, no gloves, you can count 4 legit bombs in just the replays.

    So I maintain what I said earlier. Round 10 was a continuous assault from Maidana.

    another question you could also ask is..... how many other top LWW would still be standing after that sort of bombardment in round 10.... The guy didn't even take a knee.... it says more about his heart then chin....but still the question stands....how many after taking those clean shots to the head - would have not gone down.... IMO....i would say maybe Kotelnik.... and maybe Alexander (although i havn't seen him hit much to make a good judgement).... i certainly think bradley would have gone down (not out)....

    Also, I'm not saying taking punishment is good...just emphasising the point that the guy is not as fragile as people made out in the past....and has a LIONS HEART

    stick to the gameplan as roach said he could...roach was proved wrong in this fight on many things. I want khan to take on board all of roaches comments and not listen to the onepraising him too much (i.e. the next pacman, ready for mayweather) s he clearly needs to develop....Also it's one thing sticking to the gameplan but if (or when) he moves up to face a guy like mayweather and much lesser extent bradley.....one gameplan might not be enough....he may need ring iq....to learn, adapt and make the adjustments mid rounds....when he can do tht....i'd say he's ready for mayweather

    Amir showed heart and he could take a bigger shot than any of us imagined, but he was supposed to cruise to an easy UD in the eyes of most and struggled more than a lot thought. I doubted his chin and he showed it was better than expected, but like Addie said other than him taking a big shot the win was good, not great.

    Going into it the question was does he have a chin? ... in the 1st round everytime maidana landed a haymaker to the head I screamed "OMG!" ... then he came out the round and I was like "WHOA! ... he got out the round after taking some shots and he did u see what he did ... another monster that roach created" ...

    but I rewatched the fight and noticed that the 1st time he got hit on the chin .. he "danced" ... so getting rocked like that doesn't do anything to change the critics mind .. most of the earlier blows landed on the cheek or forehead ... was I impressed with khan? Yes ... do I still think his chin is suspect? Yes .... the glass jaw didn't shatter but it definately cracked ...

    Ps. Who's Jenn? I liked her interview from what I saw ... id like to see who else has she interviewed

    :good

    This is dead on, khan took several good shots threw the fight, an he was stopped dead in his tracks an retreated for most, this fighter who could of lost this fight by just the fact that marcos's few landed punches a round out wayed the mass amount of shots khan dished out. That is not a sign of a good chin. It is not glass, but it sure not a sold chin.

    :huh

    None, not even khan. Khan hit him with more flush shots IMO, maidana just walked threw them, Khan connected at around 50% were marcos was at 20%, khan out landed by a hundred plus punches. Marcos had some great uppercuts, but i couldn't say they were in the knock out variety, just sold upper cuts.

    He did the same against Ortiz even though he was dropped 3 times in two rounds.

    he did not prove me wrong he did what i thought he could.he only had a weak chin fighting at the smaller weight.i think its safe to say he can take a punch.now what are people going to hate o him about now.
