since joining roach amir has won nearly every round apart from around 4 or 5 rounds against maidana. that wasnt by being out boxed but more about the lack of experience dealing with a relentless pressure fighter. can anyone other than pacman and floyd out box amir?
on the score cards amir won almost every round.... i think the judges gave 1 to kotelnik...... thats the same kotelnik that beat alexander ON some peoples cards. kotelnik is a very decent boxer with good timing. he couldnt get near amir. khan fought negatively but it shows how hard it is to beat khan.
the score cards were actually 120-108, 118-111 and 118-111 so yeah your right....kotelnik won a couple. but im pretty sure he wouldn't now. that was amirs second fight with roach and he has definitely improved a lot!
I personaly thought Kotelnik won about 3 rounds although I only saw that once. Amir would probably win by shut out now though. I didn't see the McKloskey fight but I heard a lot of people gave him the second. Malinagi probably took one or two but none clearly. I think Khan is still improving because he doesn't go crazy in between fights.
agreed. I think particularly impressive against very good boxers like Malignaggi and Judah who are normally the ones doing the outboxing. Its one think outboxing agressive knockout punchers like Boldomir (no insult intended) Its tougher completely shutting out slick fighters like Judah and Malignaggi,
