    He gets hated a lot, but he's only had like 18 fights! Give the guy a break. I also think his weak chin might be du to him making 135, he is huge for the weight!

      I also wonder if his chin will improve if he moves up. Sounds odd, but DLH was droped early in his career at lower weights, but he has a very good chin at higher weights. Maybe making 135 is taking something out of Khan? Maybe not, but it is possible.
      Hmm, decent point. But I don't think Khan is struggling just yet to make 135. He's still so young, and hasn't 'filled out' properly yet. You can tell by his frame he is too big for the weight though.

      Give it another year, and he will be 140 for sure.....

      You may have a point though, time will tell I guess.

        Yeah, I hate confidence in fighters. Much prefer boring geeks who don't sell tickets.

        Also, how can you say that when you have David Haye in your sig AND avvy?

          I wouldn't think so either, but DLH didn't look or seem drained at lower weights. But his chin got better, it's just a little theory I had. I was watching some old DLH fight and he was dropped early and it made me think of the similarity to Khan, how both are/were so big at the weight.

            I want Prescott to win, especially after Khan's arrogant comments about Prescott underestimating him, when Khan has only ever fought bin men.

            However, I agree about maybe making the weight takes something out of Khan, he is the lightweight Paul Williams, I'm half an inch shorter than Khan and it would kill me trying to get to 135.

              Speaking of big guys at 135, this Prescott guy is huge as well. Waay tallr than Amir.

                Yeah, Prescott looks almost emaciated in that video. Look at his arms, hardly any muscle at all.

                    Yeah he is tall as hell, but he is pretty skinny. Where Khan is tall and pretty big built.

                    Thanks for the video, I hadn't watched the weigh in yet
