		<description>I just love to see people eat their words.  Half of you would not have a clue how to throw a jab.  Best thing for you to do is be like a boxer........and keep your mouths shut.</description>

		<description>M1, and King Khan,

Khan has been sussed out by the British public just like Audrey Harrison, it’s as simple as that.

We’ll never know what chance Ortiz had on the outside against Maidana, but you seem to imply that because Khan beat Ortiz in the amateurs then if Khan stays on the outside then he can beat Maidana. Is that what you are saying?

Wide telegraphed swings? – the first knock down of Ortiz was a straight right.
Bad footwork? – Khan’s footwork isn’t any better, he does a lot of bouncing up and down (a pointless waste of energy) and looks good circling his opponents but gets tangled up when pushed back.
Relatively Slow? – well we all saw from Kotelnik that you don’t have to be the fastest boxer in the world to catch Khan.

Yes Maidana was floored by Ortiz but each time he was knocked down he got up. That shows you how tough this guy is.

As far as Khan&#039;s “improved” defence is concerned, you should know that almost all the punches that Kotelnik threw landed on Khan’s head.

And your “insight” sounds more like wishful thinking. Just admit it, Khan is untested and all you Khan fans are doped up on hype.</description>

		<description>KingKhan/M1

Your infantile understanding of boxing is apparent.

Onto the points you raise:

*It is true that Maidana is a very limited boxer. His main asset is his punch power. However, that sole asset is far too much for Khan who has been dropped by non-punching domestic lightweights who merely clipped him.

* Maidana is reasonably effective at cutting the ring down. He is not great at it, but for someone like Khan who gets bhis feet tangled when the opponent goes ioffensive Maidan has sufficent expertise to land flush. When he does, its lights out. 

* Ortiz has a far far better chin than Khan. There is no comparison, he took many shots from Maidana before he quit. Khan on the other hand was weobbled by a prescott jab. 

* To suggest that Maidana has a chin like khan is a joke. Maidan went down to shots from Ortiz, who himself is a very heavy hitter, but Maidana was never completely gone, hurt yes, but his head was clear shortly thereafter. Unlike khan who got hit by Prescott, and looked like he was dancing drunk through treacle.

* You say how would Ortiz fare against Prescott? You are joking right. It is a no contest. I have watched the last four fights Prescott has had , and save for Khan, he has been useless, is not that heavy a hitter (KO record inflated by club level opposition). Just look at what a domestic level Mitchell (a superfeatherweight moving up in weight) did to him recently. And in his previous fight he looked useless as well. To sugest he would handle a LW hitter and skillful boxer like Ortiz is a joke. Read up about boxing before you spout your nonsense, unless of course you are espousing the blind optimism churned out by Khan and his goofy gap in teeth dad.</description>

		<description>Khan certainly does have flaws, but anyone with any degree of boxing knowledge can see he&#039;s improved a lot under Roach. Fine, Barrera, Kotelnic and Salita may not have been the best opposition he could have had since, but how many clean punches did they land on him between them - 5, 6? Not a lot. If nothing else it does suggest his defence is a lot lot tighter. He&#039;s punching harder, looks much stronger at the higher weight. It isn&#039;t just hype and anyone with a modicum of insight can see that despite the lack lustre opposition. The only point I do agree on is that it will be good to see him properly tested. Bradley&#039;s the only fighter that would give him big problems. Alexander is almost as hyped as Ortiz was.</description>

		<description>My guess is that Roach will jump at putting Khan in against Maidana. He&#039;s tailor made for him - wide telegraphed swings, bad footwork and relatively slow. Khan will stop him inside 6 rounds - lets face it, his chin isn&#039;t much better than Khans and he was floored by Ortiz. Why on earth anyone rates him purely because of his win over Ortiz is laughable - the only reason the Americans do is because they can&#039;t stand the fact that their hot prospect got wiped out by someone average who can punch a little so they&#039;re bigging him up. Curious how Ortiz doesn&#039;t get the same abuse Khan does - they should put him in against Prescott see how he fairs.</description>

		<description>A couple of points people seem to have overlooked to some extent.

Firstly, Khan&#039;s comments regarding leaving the U.K. stem from the racial abuse he received when entering and leaving the ring during the prescott fight. Its perfectly reasonable for him to feel dejected when receiving treatment like that considering he&#039;d won an olympic medal for his country. Its a shame he doesn&#039;t realise it was a sad bigotted minority and that the majority of the British public are still right behind him.

Secondly, Maidana&#039;s ability is being blown out of all proportion. He looked rubbish in the Ortiz fight and was fortunate that Ortiz decided to do the macho thing and stand toe to toe. If he hadn&#039;t its doubtful his wide amatuerish swings would have hit their mark. Remember that Khan&#039;s already beaten Ortiz, who clearly doesn&#039;t have the heart for the game - I&#039;ve never heard a fighter come out with such negative comments as he did after the fight. Who else has Maidana beaten of any note - no one. Yeah he can punch, but his footwork is crap and his defence sucks.</description>

		<description>Shaz UK,

Khan can&#039;t run. You are just another deluded Khan fun.

Every time Kotelnik came forward he was able to catch Khan. Khan does a lot of bouncing up and down but the guy is actually slow on his feet.

Please watch the video.</description>
