    Amir Khan or Victor Ortiz, Whos better?

    Who in your opinion is the better fighter, Amir Khan or Victor Ortiz?

    I have heard Amir beat Victor in the amateurs, but they both have obviously came a long way since then. As impressive as Khan has been recently, I honestly think Ortiz is the better fighter. I have just checked out highlights of his most recent win on you tube, and its clear the maidana loss is in the past. I believe Ortiz has a very bright future ahead of him, maybe even brighter than Khans.

      Freddie Roach has improved Khan dramatically. His defence is now very good, and his natural talent has been crafted into world class boxing skill. Plus he can still improve to a much higher degree.

      Khan is better than Ortiz at this point in his career and will probably remain so. Khan has it all (except the chin).

        Khan is better IMO......training with Manny Pacquiao and Freddie Roach can turn you into a much better fighter

          his chin will be just fine at 140 i feel

          his defence has improved but still leaves a lot to be desired,he looks a bit rigid in there sometimes

              Amir Khan has better boxing skills (jab, reflexes and etc.), better handspeed and more heart. Victor only wins in the chin and power section.

              So Amir is better.

                Well if it is, then so be it. I just think it's a shame to focus on the one negative aspect of his game, when there is so much more to appreciate. Phenomenal speed, good power, great footwork, good defence, stamina, heart, determination, confidence. Plus everything about Khan can still be improved.

                  Both have BIG ??? Khan more so. Ortiz quit but Maidana was hitting him with a lot of concussive blows. Khan will hit him more often but not as hard and at the back of his mind he will know one good shot and the fight would be turned around. So I don't see him quitting against Khan someone like Valero would force him to quit but not Khan. Ortiz has more than enough power to KO Khan who has a poor chin. I don't think we really know how big Khan's heart is because he has not been in a really tough Maidana Ortiz brutal fight yet . He tried to get up after the Prescott knock downs so we know he will have a go but that is not the same as a constant brutal prolonged beating and keeping going. There is not much between them but if I had to lay a bet it would be on Ortiz winning by KO but if it went the distance I would give Khan the slight edge.
