Very interesting, but sorry to say that they were poor examples. Manny was just shadowboxing, and a guy can blaze like a meteor whilst shadowboxing. What impressed me there was his footwork and ring movement.
Khan was "sparring" I believe just for the camera, very fast hands but it was a glorified mitts-pads exercise, with the sparring partner, signalling where to hit, and gloing through motions etc.
Yep, I think just for the camerasComment

Pacquiao was shadow boxing. Anybody can look good at that. What people fail to see is that Khan has similar foot speed and hand speed to Pacquiao. What's the difference? Amir has longer legs and reach. His stride coupled with foot speed allows him to get in better positions faster than Pacquiao who would have to exert more effort to do the same thing. The result? You can hit your opponent and evade their punches easier--think of Mayweather. That's what Pacquiao has to face next year without even accounting styles and gameplan.
Truthfully, if it wasn't for Amir's lack of experience and suspect chin---a 27/28yr old Amir Khan would give Mayweather a run for his money.Last edited by rao007; 11-28-2009, 09:34 PM.Comment

Khan will probably use his reach and size and outbox JMM, I think. Plus at JNR Welter Marquez is rubbish, fought rubbish against Juan Diaz until he got the knockout, but Juan Diaz cant punch for isssh anywaysComment

khan has a chanceComment

You point out good factors about how diaz doesn't have power but you fail to realize that JMM was taggin diaz since round 1 and you fail to realize that diaz has a better chin than khan so he didn't go out earlier cause of his chin the question is can khan stand the shots he will receive from JMM. Now also khan maybe stronger than diaz but not a 1 punch knockout artist and i don't think he will outbox JMM because JMM will hit him and hurt him I mean he hurt pacquiao made him buckle several times on both fights and pacquiao has a good chin imagine khan now.
Although i give him a chance cause sadly JMM is aging but he has a tough one ahead of him if he faces JMM most likely is a sure loss for him at this point in his career he shouldn't rush a top dog like JMM after salita he should maybe target malignagie or diaz because they don't pose a threat to expose his chin then step it up with JMM.Comment

Co-sign. those are poor examples, someone shadow boxing will display more speed then someone on mits, mits your following someones commands, so ur having to think very fast aswell as hit, shadow boxing your in charge so your not having to think as much to co ordinate your punching with someone else. however khan is very very fast, but manny is something else hes incredible, his movement and everything as a boxer when i look at that im just amazed, anyone who says hes not faster then mayweather... i dont even know what to say. all the talk of khan and his glass jaw, look at prescotts ko percentage. i think its not so much a glass jaw he just had a poor defence and came up against a big puncher. as he matures and grows believe me hell take a punch much better hes most likely going to end up a middleweight, and hes very talented hell be a future pound 4 pounder people may laugh now but i guarantee it. you cant knock his skills hell n only get betterComment
