    Maidana's power is overrated. The Corley fight isn't the best of fights to gauge ''world class'' power.

    LP, I think he's got the skills to do it. I won't hold the Maidana loss against him.

    You won't, because he's the only guy I think who will be hell for Khan.

    But Ortiz won't get his chance.

    Age is only a number, as Audley Harrison says.

    Corley went the distance with Witter, Mayweather, Judah, Bailey, Alexander and many more.

    As LP said many moons ago and two fights prior he was ko'd in 5th round, he was dropped other times in career he was hardly Mr Granite.

    Solid chinned ex world champion on the decline losing to guys like Ashley Theopane then gets KO'd by guy Berto's fighting next. Maidana should of stopped him.

    Even watching Maidana when he steps up to world level he's hardly sparking guys with one punch. It's more hurtful digs that knock will out of you. He obviously can hurt you with one punch but it's not like one punch and your out. It's more accumulation of shots.

    Apart from his power (which is nowhere near at terrifying at 140 lbs),what does he have? Khan is longer,faster and I don't think Valero was crafty enough to get inside that rangy Khan jab. Do you honestly think Khan is going to trade with him? He would be outrageously defensive and win on points.
