the lightweight division is hottin up. i dont think khan will stay there much longer. warren will probably have him move uptp 140 and let him beat up on rees and take a belt there.
Manny Pacquiao vs Amir Khan who wins?

I think people who say manny is definitely quicker than khan, haven't seen khan fight before because he is absolute lightning, I don't see how you can compare until they are in the ring together or at least at the same weight. Lets see how manny handles the extra weight and how much power he carries up with him to lightweight against diaz
Im not sure whether this fight happens as long as frank warren promotes khan, would love to see it if they both keep winning, I think khan will be ready for anyone in 18-24 monthsComment

I'd love to see it soonish to be honest.I think people who say manny is definitely quicker than khan, haven't seen khan fight before because he is absolute lightning, I don't see how you can compare until they are in the ring together or at least at the same weight.

I think Pacman would probably get him out of there, but Khan is masssssssive at lightweight. Can't see how that **** can last.Comment

I don't think it would happen at lightweight maybe 140 in a couple of years, at this minute khan defence isn't good enough, there is too many intangibles, no one knows how good khan is or whether he will stay undefeated for the next 2 years, to be honest I think manny will pick up a loss sooner rather than later, as i think there are fighters who can push him back and beat him in the lw division, diaz is by no means a formality eitherComment

yeah is this the Diaz that fights a little like Ricky Hatton?I don't think it would happen at lightweight maybe 140 in a couple of years, at this minute khan defence isn't good enough, there is too many intangibles, no one knows how good khan is or whether he will stay undefeated for the next 2 years, to be honest I think manny will pick up a loss sooner rather than later, as i think there are fighters who can push him back and beat him in the lw division, diaz is by no means a formality either
Obviously pretty flawed though as Erik picked him off. But styles make fights.Comment

I think juan diaz is the one that fights more like ricky, david fought morales yeah, but morales scored a knockdown in the 1st round, but apart form that diaz bossed the fight on a faded morales, but the difference is that morales can fight going backwards, i think manny is gonna have problems when he can't hurt his oponents, and they push him back, a little like hatton when he goes up to ww. Altho manny has great speed he is off-balance when he is going backwards, and can be out boxed in my opinionComment

I voted Khan by decision. And Khan is definitley faster than Pacman and he has every advantage over Pacman except power which is debatable. Khan ko'd Earl in seconds while it took Katsidis 5 rounds to stop Earl(he gave up no ko)and katsidis is considered to be a very powerful puncher.Comment

Katsidis is the guy Khan should pick on if he gets passed Casamayor.I voted Khan by decision. And Khan is definitley faster than Pacman and he has every advantage over Pacman except power which is debatable. Khan ko'd Earl in seconds while it took Katsidis 5 rounds to stop Earl(he gave up no ko)and katsidis is considered to be a very powerful puncher.
If he does, that'll be made.
He'd beast Katsidis.Comment

thats true but at the same time its insane cuz he is only 21 and he is only 16 fights into his career. I don't know if anyone has ever taken on that level of competition so early. Even Earl and St.Clair who might not be powerhouses, they are still higher level competition than Khan should be taking at the moment which is a sign that Khan isn't being completely controlled by warren cuz I doubt if warren had his way, Khan would be fighting the level of opponents he has so far.
I think Khan should wait atleast 4-5 more fights before taking on the likes of Katsidis or the Diaz's but at the same time I think ppl will hate on him for waiting even though he is only 16 fights into his career.Last edited by -Swizzy-; 03-20-2008, 04:52 PM.Comment
