Originally posted by kiaba360 View PostKhan and Lopez still have some room to grow, but they've become so reliant on their strengths (Juanma = power and Khan = speed) that completely ignore their glaring weaknesses. Khan hasn't hit rock-bottom yet to me, it's just that his level of opposition is no joke. He needs to lose to a guy like Guzman, a veteran who's been overlooked because of his weight problems, a guy who seems to be on the tail-end of his career. This is the wake-up call fight for him, a loss that will force him to see the flaws of his style and motivate him to make the necessary changes. If he wins, then he's right back where he wants to be, in the title picture.
Where do you see Lopez going from here in his career..He has bad stamina issues and really bad habits...

Originally posted by kiaba360 View PostIMHO, he's in a similar position to where Juanma was after he lost to Salido the 1st time. Juanma took on a tune-up and then fought Salido again. Khan is taking on the #3 WBA/#4 IBF in Guzman, which almost guarantees him a shot at the winner of Peterson/Judah. The risk is worth it, but the fall will be much harder to deal with than Juanma's. If he loses to Guzman, then he can just go up to 147 and try to resuscitate his career. We've seen it done before, and Khan is exciting enough to where people will pay to see him again.
if he gets stopped again he could very well retire. it's bad for your career, but it's also bad for your health.
i wouldn't fight a puncher, or a guy with a pulse, if i were khan's handlers. guzman could show up in poor shape and khan could bounce back with a nice win. or he could get knocked unconscious, the way he went out against prescott.
an example: while roy jones was completely kayo'd against tarver and johnson, and khan was not against garcia, but the fact remains that two stoppage losses essentially ruined roy jones junior. that's roy jones you're talking about. this is amir khan.
if khan keeps getting knocked out his brains will turn to mush. his speech already sounds bad.
bring him back to england for a ten rounder against a no hoper.
