Anyway, yes people did pick Khan via wide UD or stoppage. But I broke the fight down.
I said Khan's jab would be key and he'd outjab Paulie when he concentrated. Also talked about Khan using his head movement to avoid Paulie's jabs. Then using the jab to setup his right hands.
Also predicted how the ref would stop it.
Did anyone else go into that much detail?
I kinda hope people would put their neck on the line and try to be as exact as possible. Instead of saying ' Khan wide UD ' or ' Khan late TKO '.
I'm going to use this thread for future predictions on fights. I'll be doing a lot of predictions on British domestic fights, as well as world fights.
Khan vs Malignaggi prediction:
My thoughts here are that Khan's speed is going to be the factor. Paulie's greatest attribute apart from his sturdy chin is his speed, but against Khan he's not fast enough. I think Khan will beat Paulie to the jab most of the time as long as he stays concentrated.
Khan should use a lot of head movement and use his jab to setup combinations. Khan's workrate will be spectacular as he outworks and outclasses Malignaggi.
My prediction would have to be a wide UD in favour of Khan. With a small possibility of a late stoppage victory. If there is a stoppage, it will be a ref stoppage after Paulie takes too many shots from Khan.
Upcoming predictions;
Rhodes vs Messi
Sykes vs O'Hara
McCloskey vs Lauri
Cotto vs Foreman
Cloud vs Johnson
Dawson vs Pascal
Marquez vs Diaz II
Ward vs Green
Spot on mate, my Paulie just couldnt handle his speed, Khans use of the jab and his reach was the biggest factor of the fight, and when he closed Paulie down you could tell what Khan was going to do 'Left hook right hook' but it was hard to tell when which kept Paulie waiting and waiting and then BANG khan just unleashed a two punch combo no one saw. One more thing WAR PAULIE :/
Khan wasn't using his jab enough in the early rounds and just trying to setup combos out of thin air. After Khan threw the first punch, Paulie would get out the way.
Also clipped Khan a few times coming in with his jab. Paulie's still a good fighter, but Khan was just too fast.
