Khan Is Making A Huge Mistake Fighting JMM

[LilGizmo562]

Cheers man, I did watch the Mayweather vs Marquez fight, and whilst that may be a good barometer for fighting Khan, I would quite like to see other fights before I could come up with a prediction. But it did seem that Marquez struggled with Mayweather's speed and Khan is probably just about as fast, but then not quite as skilled as Mayweather and not as good a chin. And Marquez did look quite slow so I don't know how well he has adjusted to the higher weight, but obviously I have to watch some of his earlier fights.

Watch both Pacquiao fights...there he showed his complete arsenal.

khan ko's overrated marquez at 140

[BigStereotype]

The same overrated Marquez that gave Pacquiao the two hardest fights of his career and stopped Joel Casamayor for the first time? Who's never been KO'd? Will get knocked out by the same chump who recently got KTFO'd in the first round? That guy? Marquez is a legend, Khan will fold.

Instead of facing hard-hitting mandatory Marcos Maidana, Amir Khan was decided to duck his mandatory to fight an opponent he sees as more easily beatable. Problem is that, much like with the Prescott fight and with his announcement of a desire to fight Mayweather, Amir Khan is so far out of touch with reality that he fails to see the facts of the matter.

The facts are simple.

1) You don't need to hit Amir Khan hard to hurt him, just hit him clean.
2) Maidana is a limited boxer, JMM is a great boxer
3) Khan has never faced anyone remotely close to JMM skill wise

Khan has adopted the a new style, much like David Haye, that consists of running around the ring like a raging ****. That style would be great for someone like Maidana who would get very frustrated and start throwing any semblance of a fight plan out of the window.

JMM on the other hand will be well aware of what Khan intends to do and will be well prepared for it come fight night. Khan will likely be able to win the early rounds based of his size and speed advantages but the difference between JMM and Maidana is patience.

JMM will be disciplined knowing that sooner or later Khan will think he is having an easy night and he will slip up. When Khan does JMM will hit him with a countershot that he doesn't see and it will be goodnight Sweet Price for Amir Khan't. Unlike so many of the chumps that have dropped Khan before JMM is too damn good to let him off the hook once he hurts him.

Horrible choice by Khan, his manager and promotor. Instead of facing a crude fighter who would have trouble landing a decisive blow they are gonna go in with one of the top counterpunchers of this generation. All it takes is one good punch to beat Khan and JMM is way too good not to land it during a 36 minute fight.

Put some points on it. I got a milli on Amir.

You basically stated all the reasons I think this will be a fun fight. I used to hate Khan but now that he's got Roach I've come around. He's looked great lately, but cmon it JMM. Tough fight for both men. As long as it's the JMM of old and not the old fat JMM from the Mayweather fight I got JMM getting a knock out late in the fight.

I don't think the fight will be too difficult for Khan. He's bigger than Marquez, a lot quicker, he can also pop a little and he's working with the best trainer in the business who will formulate the best strategy for victory. Marquez shouldn't really be fighting above 135. He looked slow and lethargic at 144, I suspect he will also look slow in this fight as he's fighting Khan, whose handspeed is comparable to Floyd's (he's probably quicker actually). JM is a great counterpuncher but he caught a beating off Floyd and I think Amir will execute a similar strategy, picking his way to a UD. Might have to weather a couple of Marquez storms, but I think they'll be brief and Khan will potshot and outland him.

Exactly what i think Khan is too big, fast and strong for the Marquez who look very sluggish at light welter. Marquez is on his way out for sure if he dont go down to superfeather or lightweight.

[kadyo's]

I got 10 million that says khan wins this one.

[Gutz]

I think i'm one of the few who think that Khan can beat JMM..



WAR Khan!!1

[Motofan]

He beat an ancient Marco, now he is going for an old Marquez, and next will be a 400 pound Morales. Then Ricky Hatton, and then Cotto. Khan is taking the Roach path. If some of these guys were old when Pac fought them, what does that say about Khan? Nothing like building a name on the backs of old legends.
