    He looks to open for shots and not too exciting.

      His next fight will provide his most significant test yet and should give a clearer indication of just how far he can go but from his first 12 fights I think he will eventually be able to mix it with the best in the world. His hand speed is quite phenomenal but it has been nearly impossible to tell how good his defences and chin are but my initial inclination is that the defensive side of his game needs a bit of work.

        He looks great, but Warren shouldn't waste him on opposition like the guy on the Calzaghe undercard, fighting weak opponents will harm his development.

        Khan has superstar potential.

              it seems that his defense is like his problem, but he is still young so thats something he should be able to fix if he is properly taught.
              oh...just saw on boxrec that his next fight is the day after my birthday :P....ill be expecting this and also illl try to download one of his fights.
              thanks for the opinions

                Khans good but he needs to keep his hands up when throwing shots, when someone good tags him then we'll see how good he really is. I 'd like to see him fight Kevin Mitchell.

                  It would be good to see Khan come and fight in America, maybe appearing on the undercard of Hatton's next fight in Las Vegas. The current prejudice against ******s in the US might be an obstacle to that, though.

                    I like what I've seen sofar. Potentially the best boxer in the UK.
