      Prescott made Khan look like a baby giraffe with scurvy with his first jab.

        I think Barrera made the baby lamb come out with a looping right at some point. Not bad from Barrera considering he only had 2 pints of blood left.

          I would say he's waiting until they go up to 147. He won't fight them for 2 years at 140.

              Khan will not fight Alexander. That is beyond a joke. He's already seen Alexander knockout the granite chinned Urango with devastsing blows to the head.

              Thing is with Khan - he has got to be matched with someone who can't at any point land a serious blow during the fight. Otherwise, he is ****ed. Prescott and Barrera were rocking him with JABS. JABS.

              Here at 140 punchers like Maidana and Alexander will absolutely rip you if you show any sign of weakness.

              Answer me this: Has there every been a decent fighter that has never taken a serious blow during the prime of his career? I mean look at Mayweather. He's probably got the best defense of all time (yes, I am aware of Pep/Whitaker etc) and he's been stunned before by decent fighters such as Chop Chop.

              Every professional boxer must be able to take good shots. Khan's chin is the worst I've ever seen. Also, he amatuerish style and defense will get him knockouted soon.
              No, I'm serious Crack..I really think that he will fight one of those three after this fight with Paulie. I think he will only get better. I've been very quiet about Khan, but I like his boxing ability and I think he may actually shock us. This is my opinion.

                This is true I think. He'll duck them for as long as he can.

                  what about his chin coach? what about their apprehension to put him with anyone with even heavy hands?

                    Khan's boxing ability is outrageously overrated. Sure, he will get better training in the WCG but everyone has got to get in that ring and throw down with hard blows at some point. Khan will KOed by Maidana, Alexander or Bradley.

                      No, he didn't. If you're talking about the first 5 seconds of the fight, at the most it made him shift his footing for a split second. Being "rocked" means one's feet giving way and stumbling across the ring.

                      Not true. His chin at 135 is ****, but I don't really believe that Malignaggi will be hurting him at 140. I can understand how it's become a running joke, but I don't think most objective boxing fans will buy into it as gospel.

                      See above - Khan got jabbed by Prescott early, had to shuffle his feet for a bit, and carried on as normal. Less than 10 seconds afterwards, Prescott gets his head snapped back by a Khan jab. The punch that made Khan do the funky chicken dance was a short, hard left hook followed by a right overhand and another short left hook.

                      Look, fellas, I've watched that fight a zillion times over. I almost know all the punches off by heart, so don't be giving me no garbage about Khan getting "rocked by a jab". It only makes you look silly.
