great fight i lost money but Kahn was very brave at the end of 10 he was wasted but he deserves the dec. great fight to watch. the body shot took alot out of Maidana stamina wise at the end.
That was high level boxing right there always good to see a human being facing his fear and fight through them and thats what Khan did. Great heart and fighting spirit.

Cortez did a pretty bad job of reffing in the Khan-Madaina fight.If someone holds your arm you are allowed to hit them with the other. He let Khan hold a ton those last 4 rounds or so, seems like there was favortism IMO

I bet on Khan but I agree with you
It seemed like he was trying to give Khan separation the last few rounds
The boxing refs in general today were piss poor
Some clown in Liverpool awarded Bellew a TKO over McKenzie without a punch landing
and the ref in Seattle for the Abner-Darchinyan fight needs a new career - that guy was the worst !
The most puzzling thing, to me, out of all the bouts though was the Ortiz decision
I thought he CLEARLY won more rounds than Peterson, and then add the fact that he scored two knockdowns.
I can't believe that fight was a draw - bizarre scorecards (the third judge even had Peterson ahead !)
well said...not even a stern warning for holding....and there was plenty...
it was close...i believe that maidana was either tired or gave away the 8th...and didn`t do much better in the 9th...those 2 were crucial to him given the point that cortez took......
every time maidana got khan on the ropes or was punching with a free hand,,cortez was on him like a cheap suit....
and the two hand pushing off?....not a peep...
i give khan credit for holding on at the end...but cortez was in there to help him...
lesson to be learned,.....beware of cortez reffing goldenboy fights with a home team interest...
all that said,an excellent fight....i give khan big ups for fighting a big fight on neutral(sort of) turf...
and imo,maidana needs to lose that trunks-tugging habit...ridiculous.....it` really hurts him,imo...screws up his flow...
again,congrats khan backers...:0008

Just got home from poker night....Abner CLEARLY won the fight IMO and Ortiz CLEARLY won as well. How the fuck did they call that a draw??? I had a good night but got seriously jobbed on the draw. Going to watch Khan right now. Made some nice dough on Khan and the OVA. Bad week but a nice comeback today.
Just a great night of boxing!!!!! Watched all fights on tape. It's 4am and I'm too damn tired to comment now, but I will on what I saw tomorrow.
Great fights! And a plus weekend, so I'm pleased!!!!

rd10...WOWWWWWWW!...kHAN NEARLY OUT ON HIS FEET...have to call it 10-8....GREAT FIGHT AND PERHAPS FOTY!
one of the best fights on the yr. Props to Khan for fighting his way through adversity late in the fight and holding the freight train off. Maidana made it close but Khan clearly deserved the nod. Great fight!!!! Maidana/Mathysse Anybody??? Some great action fights to be had @140 in 2011!
