    khan should whoop maidana, the shots he was catchin ortiz with were huge but avoidable for someone like khan.

    I really wanna see khan get cracked on the chin to see what it's like at 140 because he looks v.strong at the weight (i want him to win though)

    maidana doesnt really think much of khan i can remember his postfight interview after he beat ortiz he was asked a question about the winner of khan-kotelnik he said something to the effect of ''hes nothing i'm not worried about him''

    Why dows Maidana even hold an interim title? The whole point of them is for when the champion is inactive or injured. Khan is neither of these, so the WBA are just trying to force another pointless mandatory on him.
     
  5. Firstly i am not a HUGE khan fan , but i support being from the uk.

    I just woke up after having a dream where he gets sparked out in his next fight. His eyes were doing that thing the undertaker does(wwe)

    So far every boxing dream i have had has come true

    I suppose they could just tell the truth and say that Maidana actually beat Kotelnik but was robbed blind.

    I definately see your point but I think this fight would be the making of Khan.

    Nope, Maidana won that fight all day long. I never rated Kotelnik going into the Khan fight, Maidana was waaay too fast for him.

    It was a tight fight.

    I feel it could have gone either way. No robbery for me.

    I actually think Khan beats Maidana and Ortiz. He ought to fight Maidana though as I reckon he'd beat him easily and would prove he can hang with a bona fide top 10 LWW

    Yeah, if he does vacate he needs to fight someone around the same level as Maidana.

    Don't vacate for an easy fight. We know little enough as it is.

    Hatton will never fight Urango again.
    No money in it.
    The problem with Khan is Frank Warren signed a 20
    fight deal with sky box office. The first show was Khan
    v prescott. Either a big name or a 140 fighter who has
    something to offer. Otherwise no ppv money.

    This gets brought up regularly on here...Frank can sign what he wants, but he has to have an agreement with Khan...no one in their right mind would sign an agreement that tied them in with a promoter for 6-7 years.
