    Why do people even care to vote for either one? Let's see... Maidana got knocked down a couple times against Ortiz (he did get up to KO him so props), he struggled a bit with Lopez to get the KO, he got narrowly beaten by KHAN!, he got outboxed thoroughly by ALEXANDER!, and thankfully shut up Broner's mouth. Unless Floyd has leg cramps, and can't move Maidana don't have a chance.
    Khan gets KOed by Prescott, beat up by Peterson, knocked out by Garcia, and barely won his last fight. He does have a decision against Maidana. Floyd gets his first KO in many fights against this guy.

    I'll watch either for free on showtime the week after (if I got nothing else to do), but either one I damn sure don't pay for

    Definitely voting for Maidana. Khan should score a meaningful win if he wants this payday.

    Khan is just looking to cash out, at this point.

    If Mayweather fights him, I hope the majority of hardcore fans boycot the fight, it'd be an absurd fight.

    If they didn't boycott Ortiz and Guerrero, they sure as hell won't boycott this. Casuals(the majority) in general will buy regardless of opponent at this stage in Mayweather's career. It all comes down to how well they hype the All Access episodes.

    Ortiz and Guerrero were mismatches, but to their credit they had legitimate wins behind them, whereas Khan has NONE recent good win.

    I can't believe Floyd is hollering about Bradley and Marquez when it comes to Pacquiao, then turns around and puts Khan up there, its despicable at best, a suckerpunch in the face of all hardcore boxing fans.

    Floyd is going to fight Maidana now...

    Joke fight..but people are butthurt about Khan getting it? wow. Y'all gonna be butthurt after this boring ass 12UD.


    You want to save the sport of boxing? vote for neither you dimwits. By Voting maidana you've now given him the lamest excuse of all time to fight a weak ass cherry picked opponent. 12,000 votes what a joke.

    funniest part about him fighting is everyone knows he will win 100%... there is not a single person who can dispute that this will not be another one sided UD for mayweather... maidana won't be able to land once

    "Save the sport of boxing"... What a load of bull****.

    I didn't vote for either one as I'm not interested in seeing either one.

    maidana gets his ass kicked worse than khan would. atleast Con has speed. marcos has absolutely nothing. it should be Danny but he already said hes not ready

    this is the only reason i perfer to see khan over maidana..

    purely based on who deserves it more it's obviously maidana

    it should have been danny garcia but he is not too keen just yet..

    mayweather vs. guerrero and canelo have been rather stale and boring. khan will at least bring something different to the table that we haven't seen in a while and i will definitely be interested to see how mayweather handles it... but if everyone is ok with seeing maidana get owned devon alexander style then knock yourself out

    We need more votes for Maidana

    most people on amir khans twitter dont care about our sport. they just follow him because he is a celebrity in europe and they wont be watching the fight. he is telling them all to vote to in order to win it

    we may not be a big mainstream sport but we have enough fans of the sport to make sure our voice is heard. tell every fan you can about this

    Maidana and Khan should just have a rematch, and the winner gets Floyd. I think Maidana would knock him out this time.

    Actually it's not. Maidana has trained trainers. Keep up.
