khan looks like he is filling out into 47 real well. and most importantly he is confident and feels good about making that weight class. if lucas cant knock him out i think khan wins an easy decision

Lucas doesn't even look big at 140. Khan fills out because of his frame and height.
I think Khan destroys Lucas at 140, and I don't think Lucas would be very successful at 147. Without his power, he doesn't really have much to beat the top fighters. And he would not land much on Khan anyway. Lucas ain't an inside fighter. From where Lucas throws his punches, Khan is dominante.

It all depends which Khan shows up. If the gladiator khan appears then Matthysse would win it by brutal KO fashion. However, if the scientific boxer Khan shows up then he easily wins it going away by a lopsided UD.

He has the jab, movement, skills and workrate to give anyone a incredibly tough fight he just lacks the chin to make up for his lapses in defence. Also I don't remember Collazo hurting Khan apart from the Low blow.Last edited by Ryn0; 01-21-2015, 09:55 PM.
