    Man enough to admit you were wrong about Khan?

    I am. I thought Paulie would be too much for Amir but Khan showed that he's worthy of the belt imo. Anyone else think the same??

    I thought Khan was a B level fighter at best which is obviously not right.
    I also thought David Haye would be the only UK fighter to win a big fight this year against a non brit. Mitchell obliged me but Khan did not!

    He just beat a featherfisted boxer.

    Put him up against a boxer with power and it's nap time.

        That's no reflection of his boxing ability though. He can't help that he was born with a weak chin. Khan is an excellent boxer. No doubt about it.

          It was impressive that he outboxed a pure boxer., while at the same time showing great power in his shots. I think Khan has become a boxer puncher now.

            I bet 100 bucks for Khan by stoppage.. Khan is an outstanding boxer who had the skills to win the silver medal in the olympics while Paulie was losing to Darling Jimenez in the NYC Golden Gloves as an amatuer.. Paulie is a superb boxer but Khan Is much better.. Khans downfall may be his chin. Will be interesting to see how he handles world class boxers with world class power.

                  The doubt people have regarding Khan is his chin.

                  How could he lose to Paulie? Seriously?

                    Who (apart from Maidana) do you think has the power to test him at 140lbs? I think Alexander has some good power but not explosive. Maybe Ortiz?? Thoughts??
