Khan's performance against collazo was way better than thurmans performance . Khan absolutely destroyed collazo and embarrassed him while thurman couldn't do the same. Thurman won convincingly but his performance wasn't up to par with khans.
I think saying Khan's performance was 100 times better is an exaggeration but I would expect nothing less from such a totally devoted Khan fan. I think Kahn's performance was much better than Thurman's performance. Khan was never hurt and he never ran away from Collazo. He took the fight to Collazo and dominated him. He knocked Collazo down in the 4th and twice in the 10th while Thurman failed to knock Collazo down even once. Thurman was clearly hurt by the body punch and forced to hold and run. Yep, Khan definitely won the Collazo stomping contest. Now it's time for Khan to man up and tell Haymon that if he doesn't get the Mayweather fight he wants to fight Thurman asap.
I agree with you khan has nothing to lose fighting thurman, I belive khan has enough experience and boxing ability to outbox thurman
We don't have to judge by Common Opponents...Make Thurman vs Khan and lets find out who better! My money is on Thurman to leave Khan Flat. Khan don't have Collazo, Bundu or Guerrero Chin
Guerrero was out on his feet and go dropped by a guy with 4 KO's last month...Bundu has never fought above European level. Collazo was dropped 3 times doe. My money's on Khan and we can make a bet if it happens.
Same can be said in maidana vs alexander
For floyd.
Same can be said In baldomir vs zab for floyd
Same can be said in collazo vs ortiz for floyd
Just saying

Broadly agree with your post, Khan did the better job overall, but Khan did move (or run) once Collazo dropped his hands and started walking him down.
Who cares? Mosley beat up Collazo and knocked him down if I recall nearly 10 years ago.
Are we really talking about who beat Collazo better? That's what the ww division has come to? This fight was a joke and I skipped it for a much better UFC card.
Khan's style is better suited to fighting Collazo, he is quicker on his feet and use his jab a lot more.
Thurman needs to stop loading up and improve his foot speed.
I'd still take Thurman to KO Khan.

Cool. Now make a thread about Julio Diaz.

^ are you kidding me, did you even watch both fights? If Thurman didn't get hurt?? wtf are you talking about. That's one of the criteria of comparing....You know what. Forget it...I can't stand Kahn, but I know enough about boxing to say that Kahn did a better job in beating Collazo. Some ppl here just make themself look like huge retards, because they can't stand to give credit where it is due.. Or they just don't know a thing about the sweet science. Freaking retards
Thurman beat him in 7, Khan went the distance. Had Thurman not gotten hurt, everyone would be looking at the result instead of obsessing over how he got hurt by a well-timed liver shot (who doesn't get hurt by those?). Khan clinched a lot against a less focused Collazo and couldn't finish him. All I know is that I had to spend less time in front of my TV for Thurman/Collazo and I was more entertained.
khan is a stylistic nightmare for most fighters. if his chin weren't so abysmal, he'd be real difficult to beat. he uses his length and throws so many damn punches it freezes you. it doesn't matter if most of them don't hurt either because he's piling up points.
This! If khan's chin and/or ability to survive when getting battered, was better he'd make easy work of guys like Thurman.
Had Thurman not gotten hurt, no one would be saying this. I very much preferred Thurman's performance because I actually enjoy watching him fight, while Khan is enjoyable because of how vulnerable he is. Thurman seems more comfortable on his back-foot, using his feet to open up counter-punching opportunities ("Run-Time"). Khan couldn't finish Collazo and really didn't come all that close. Also, Collazo fought like a spaz in that fight, while last night he seemed more focused. Thurman beat him in 7, while Khan went the distance.

Destroyed Collazo???? Really???? So what do u call what Danny did to Khan???? He almost took that mans life away. And Thurman would smoke Khan cuz all he has to do is land once on that sh1t chin of Khans.
