"the bunker"
roughly a year or two ago,khan was ducking maidana like the ebola virus...

then khan beats up on series of either smallish,punchless or old(or all of the above) fighters while maidana struggles during a tune-up fight with an old demarcus corley...of course he also loses a b.s. decision to kotelnik in germany(kotelnik does have an iron chin...tough guy)and whacks a dangerous pair of victors(cayo and ortiz)....

i guess the addition of roach and the poor performance of maidana vs corley was enough to get khan to sack up....

whatever...what i`m reading is that this is a foregone conclusion....and the odds reflect that(anywhere from around +250 to almost 300).....

i don`t think this is anywhere near a foregone conclusion....especially on a neutral...

after the prescott debacle,which opponent actually had a legit chance to hurt khan?....

i don`t see that guy...

i think that in the real world,maidana is still undefeated...and his resume is much more impressive than khan`s...particularly given that the guy isn`t afraid to fight tough opponents on the road....

maybe i`m way off....i felt as though i was jobbed in mma the week before last costing me a huge payoff....i apologize for losing my cool regarding that issue....and i had a lousy week this past week....

so maybe i`m finishing the year on a downward spiral...but based on what i`m seeing,i think maidana is a very live dog....a dangerous dog ....for all 12 rounds....of course,i`m trying to keep an open mind.....i can be dissuaded...

i`ll be curious to see how khan approaches this fight...whether he`ll strictly fight off the back foot...or actually trust his chin and power....

interesting weekend...

looking forward to more opinions....


lets finish strong...:toast:

I find this fight very intriguing, and am anxious to see it. Not one of my top thoughts for the weekend though, and I will probably just sit back and enjoy. Khan has looked superb lately, thanks a lot to Roach and sparring with Pac me thinks. That right trainer can do a lot to guard against a glass jaw (aka - Steward and Wladimir) but still, the specter is there. I do think Khan's chin is particularly fragile though. Maidana looked so ordinary against Corley, but he is an exceptionally hard puncher. Does he connect, or is Khan's boxing ability so superior that he can negate the power?? Thoughts?
Just my opinion.

I think Khan slaughters Maidana within 4 rounds.

Khan is too quick and will hit Maidana with punches he doesn't see coming.

When Maidana is hurt, he just keeps slugging, I expect Khan to crack him in between punches.

Good luck all :toast:

Kahn-Mad

Kahn-Mad

I also think Khan is the class in this race. I guess this is what may be referred to a guy having a "punchers chance". Margarito may have been viewed as such, but the cream always rises to the top. As -300 and change is beyond my limits, a round prop is my only play, if I can wrap my head around that. Not sure who, but I think I see a stoppage as this shapes up to be a brawl. Khan with a 70% KO ratio and Maidana with a sick 90% KO ratio, I see bombs away. Khan probably has the more polished approach to pugilistic pursuits, but I don't think Maidana gives a rats rear end. I believe Maid is a head-hunter and will go balls to the wall to demolish this guy. Won't go the distance, if I can find that in Vegas. I'll be down at Mandalay before the week is out. But seeing as how I crashed and burned with the Marquez bet and I would have bet Antillion if I could find a line here, I'm probably wrong, AGAIN!:eek:

Chisora nuts?

Chisora nuts?

A lot of boxing guys talk tough and act crazy, but I get the impression that Derek Chisora isn't acting, that he really is a certified nut job (Ike Ibeabuchi style). He just looks crazy to me, like he could be put behind bars for life at any time. I certainly wouldn't want to meet the guy in a dark alley.

Shane Divorce - Paying ex wife 20k a month !!!

Shane Divorce - Paying ex wife 20k a month !!!

http://www.tmz.com/2010/12/05/sugar...hter-sports-legal-documents-support-payments/

From TMZ:

According to the docs, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Jin claims she needs the cash to pay for several monthly expenses like:

-- Clothes
$5,073
-- Jewelry
$1,666
-- Cosmetics, beauty
$2,000
-- Massage therapist
$360
-- Personal trainer
$720

The couple was also ordered to sell their Southern California mansion ASAP so they can divvy up the cash from that deal.

Mosley did get one minor victory -- the judge ruled he's allowed to keep his 2006 H3."



THIS INFURIATES ME !!!!!!!!!!!
5k in clothes a month !!!!!!!
2 grand in cosmetics !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ungrateful, undeserving witch !

I will never forget that HBO countdown show, when Jin said "Shane gets to go play at the gym all day, while I take care of the kids - I do all the real work"

Then they show the nannies in the background taking the kids to school.

Shane Mosley - You are a true warrior and a tribute to the sport I love.

But your ex-wife is a gold digging, good for nothing piece of trash. Horrible Horrible Horrible human being.

$5 grand a month for clothes?
$1700 a month, every month, on jewelry???
$2 grand a month for cosmetics/beauty?

The courts are so friggin' corrupt! Illogical.

I'm not sure I've spent 5 grand my whole life on clothes.

$2 grand a month on beauty. I haven't even paid for a haircut since the turn of the millennium.

I don't know how these women even look themselves in the mirror? That must be what the 2 grand a month on make-up is for...

I agree.

The whole system needs to be changed.

Also Cedric Boswell vs. Owen Beck on the card.

I like Boswell, and want to see him get one more chance before it's over for him. He does have some skills. He had Jameel McCline beat clear a few years back before hitting the wall in the 12th.

All and all, a pretty damn solid card. Cuban heavy Luis Ortiz also in action, he's one to watch.
