The Huge Ring Showdown - Khan Vs Maidana

Amir Khan (23-1, 17 KO) is already the WBO Light Welterweight belt and is to shield his title just as before on December 11, 2010 at the Mandalay bay in Las Vegas. This much younger boxer is dreaming of combating Floyd Mayweather Jr. but before making that happen, he has to face Marcos Maidana (29-1, 27 KO) on the ring, Khan vs. Maidana toe to toe.
This came as a huge amaze for Khan when he ultimately had a new trainer, Jorge Rubio, right before Khan’s big fight with Breidis Prescott in 2008 which Rubio picked. He couldn't stop talking about him, telling everybody how fantastic he was being a instructor. Khan were built with a good chemistry with the Cuban coach as he taught and showed Khan other designs and methods, especially footwork and defence in boxing. But on the ring, greater Prescott arrived on the scene more quickly, landing good quality shots to the entire body and face. Khan faltered by his left hook in the early rounds but picked up eventually to continue the fight. After getting hit with several huge punches which landed accurately, Khan was floored and may not fight anymore. Right now, the Cuban trainer got changed by Freddie Roach who just may supply the solutions to Khan’s hopes, the one that is assume to create him a fantastic fighter, making Roach seem like the genie that will make all his wants of being better than all the boxers come true.

But Khan isn’t sailing smoothly together with his battles, on the other hand it has gotten more difficult since the Prescott fight. Now he facing again one more knockout puncher, Marcos Maidana. Experts believe that the Khan vs. Maidana fight on December 11, 2010 may imitate the results of his battle 24 months in the past. He may get bumped down the same way he did with the Prescott fight and even if he trains hard, Maidana’s knowledge and durability will give him a hard time. Just before his previous battles, Khan continues to be profitable on the ring with fighters less strong than him which made him look like he has gotten better as a boxer. However when he was met with a fighter better than him, it placed his skills to the test and now again, a better fighter.

Khan’s 2 big earlier fights absolutely well prepared him for this fight. His big win against Marco Antonio Barerra and Paulie Malignaggi gave him self-confidence and possibility to put to action what Freddie has taught him. Several experts do imagine that even after losing to Prescott, they see him as an improved fighter, acquired better chin by choosing to move up in weight. He does have that spirit to turn into a excellent fighter but does he actually have what it takes to be one. All we have seen at this time are facts that absence proof. Some fans may see that Khan continues to be much better and may also have a shot in winning again Maidana but to everyone else who believes otherwise, we need to see more than just wins from light to moderate punchers like Salita and Kotelnik because he still has a lengthy path ahead for his profession and make it there and then we might be able to see him fight against Mayweather Jr.

Maidana has his weak points and he also has his strengths, that’s why if he trains hard and fight smart on December, otherwise he could appear really foolish if he doesn’t. Main point here, with all the talks about actually knocking down Maidana very easily, like a great fighter than he is, planning to fight Mayweather Jr. the coming year, all these may be like absolutely nothing if he doesn’t win the Khan vs. Maidana fight.
