A smarter Khan... Unbeatable?

JDezi4

Khan will always have a glass chin, so he'll always be vulnerable to a good shot

That being said, if he was smarter about it... Fought at a more responsible pace... Didn't just blindly cover his face as "defense"

With his speed and athleticism, who could beat him

Basically, take out the chance of a good shot landing, who can still beat him? 140, and 147 (outside of Pac and May)

And don't forget the improved defense and more calculated pace

You can never take out the chance of a good shot landing. Amir Khan will never be unbeatable, sorry.

With the bold in play, not very many people can beat him. But the bold is not something that just happens. Even if Hunter can fix his defense and amateur style he will still get hit with big shots eventually.

Lol... This is a hypothetical question... HYPOTHETICAL

Why is there always a smart ass "realist", just answer the question

lol, he's very beatable, smart or not.

He has so many flaws, any one with decent power & good boxing IQ beats him.

He always starts of his attacks with his left hand, rarely switches up, poor foot work, his guard when he's on the rope is always exposed & most importantly....he can't adjust during fights.

Well, I suppose anything is possible, hypothetically speaking.

Just watch the Kotelnik fight and you will see Khans best defensive performance since he turned pro. He is too arrogant to change his style in the long term. He might do well in his next fight but he will revert back to being a showman and he will get knocked out again.

Danny Garcia is a horrible boxer and Khan should have made him look like a club fighter instead he played right into Garcia's game plan and got what he deserved.

He has the natural ability to win against any fighter but the same can't be said of his brain.

I think if Khan set his offense off the jab, he would be a difficult fighter to deal with. He needs to stop depending on his speed so much and utilize his other attributes.

With a jab like his, he should be fighting like Monzon, Holmes, or Hearns and not like Pacquiao.

True, but he doesn't have the 1 punch KO power like a Hearns. Also his foot work is pretty bad. All he does is circle around endlessly.
