the guy's khan's team wants to avoid right now are ones that have that one punch power to end a fight. i still think khan's chin is questionable and that will be the case until we see him prove otherwise. he is a skilled boxer who is big and has speed.malinaggi is a good fight for him cause that guy has no power whatsoever. malinaggi couldn't knockout a featherweight.

Malignaggi is a tough opponent for anyone. He is very very very intelligent and would any elite fighter trouble with his footspeed and his ring generalship.
Amir Khan made a good choice by signing with Golden Boy, and Madison Square Garden would be a perfect place for him to start his American conquest.
I would say Amir will win this by a close decision.

Good interesting fight, but no way for ppv.regular hbo is just rite for this fight.paulie has what seems to have resurrected his whole approach To boxing since parting ways with mcgirt ,then fighting in paulie's backyard in NYC should be a even matchup.
