paulie finished the cotto fight and if thats not enough he did it with a broken orbital (cheek) bone. takeing cotto's punches is one thing, takeing his punches while you have a broken bone in your face thats something els. paulies gunna weather whatever kahn has to give
Im telling you now, khan is not a soft puncher...the more he grows into the weight...the stronger hes gonna get, hes got the power and the speed
Another thing he has is the accuracy, he finishes people off very well.....
Of course im not expecting him to knock out paulie...he went with cotto and hatton, if khan did that id be amazed
I knew I'd pay for that statement...Soft puncher wasn't the best word. I'm just saying he isn't a very hard puncher that people make him out to be. As I said, he KOs fighters with accuracy, speed and combinations from crazy angles, similar to Pacquiao. He's nowhere near as strong as JWW fighters like Kendall Holt, Ricardo Torres, Juan Urango, Marcos Maidana and Hatton.
Not in a million years. Cotto at 140 (where he was strongest) couldn't even KO him, and neither could Hatton. What makes you think a soft puncher like Khan could stop him? And don't let the Salita fight fool you. That was stopped because of the 3 knockdown rule and the fact that Salita is a bum. Khan KOs fighters the same way Pacquiao does. With fast combinations from crazy angles. But Paulie can match his speed, and possibly top it. He also has a solid chin.
I'm picking Khan by decision because Paulie gets hit too much, but I wouldn't be surprised if Paulie's skill edged it. He just needs to work on punch resistance.
