    Oh Amir.......

    Man that was bad.

    You could tell on the ring walks Khan knew he had nothing left, he was absoloutley bricking it, and Brook is far from the scariest fighter Khan has fought.

    I still say Khan should have never overreacted to the Garcia loss, he should have stayed with roach and stayed at 140. He got timed in the Garcia fight but he was still his best at that weight and with Freddie.

    he hasnt beaten anyone good in more than ten years lol. i think he has one top 10 win over alexander if he was in the top 10 at the time. when we make fun of bums like tank davis or charlo for having 1 top 10 win in 5 years, khan is ever more pathetic but at least he had a decent run before but talk about living off a name

        And dont forget a greath strength and conditioning team and coach in Alex Ariza who made khan less top heavy and thicker legs to help him balance. And the way they prepared him for the Madaina fight was phenomenal to last and win that fight. They may have hated each other but they produced results

          I've been saying that for years. His footwork and volume under Roach was devastating. He was beating the **** out of Danny before he got clipped. Ever since then he goes with trainers like Hunter who want him to fight defensive. His best self, while vulnerable, was taking the initiative and controlling the tempo of the fight. He made a lot of elite guys look levels below him when he was a killer.

          This fight reminded me of something Barrera said years ago. It was about Pac in an upcoming fight. He was approaching his 40s and Barrera said one thing older less active fighters overlook is distance, practicality. The conditioning and combinations are there but the accuracy and distance is off. Khan was far away from the dedicated, well tuned machine he was years back.

            It's cause Khan was a little b!tch after every loss and had to change trainers. He always had ways to blame everyone else but not himself. No matter how great he could of been technical and having a punch that could KO if it just had to land, nothing could of saved his glass chin.

            In the nerd world, they would call that a GLASS CANNON. The problem is Khan never had a cannon, only glass.

              Khan was never proven at Welterweight.......Brook was an upper tier guy who made fairly easy work of Shawn Porter and was up on the cards against Errol Spence. That said, Brook looked the fresher of the two

                Even then the Alexander win lost its luster because Alexander had drug addiction issues

                  This, khan hasnt beaten anyone good in forever. I predicted Brooks would win by KO by looking at khans record and every single stay busy fight khan won was against guys with no power. Then he gets knocked out by a top fighter then fights more no power no hopers. I looked at the crawford fight for brook and saw that brooks timing was still there and knew as long as he makes weight and the 2 extra pounds at 149 to help then he should knock out khan. The last time khan beat anyone with power was maidana 11 years ago.
