Maidana or Prescott?? I'm not trying to start anything here...just asking the question. Khan took an awful lot of hard shots off Maidana and had to weather the storm. Yet Prescott blew him away in a decisive manner. Different times, different weights, different circumstances etc. Also are Maidana and Prescott leagues apart? Wouldn't them two fighting be exciting...for about 1 or 2 rounds max before one decapitates the other? ..whoever lands first? Just thought it might be interesting....
Amir was fighting stupid when he fought Prescott, so he didn't see those shots coming. Last night proved that power doesn't mean **** compared to accuracy and TIMING.
I'm not sure, p4p, but I'd say Maidana is a vastly more skilled slugger by about every conceivable standard and is the bigger hitter outright.
Not that Mattyse huts that hard but he sure as he'll keeps coming. These guys remind me of each other. The Mattyse fight with Zab was very similar to the fight last night.
Maidona hits harder. Prescott cuaght Khan with a punch that he didnt see. With Maidona he was expecting it. His radar was on ---- "in coming."
both guys are nasty mother****ers, but prescott, for some reason, just seems the meaner of the two. his combo landed perfectly so it looked amazing in a slow-mo replay.
in maidanas weight class id say there are only 3 people thats ****ing with him in terms of power. and that is ortiz, alexander, and urango
