    he may be right. 2 to 3 years from now, khan would be one of the topdogs in the sport. that is why stop matching him with guys like floydie or pac now if you don't want him ruined.

      Khan is much better technically than Hatton ever was really.

      That being said, A prime Hatton stops Khan.

          Kahns not in his prime yet and he's a better boxer than Hatton was but I think a prime Hatton would probably beat the current Kanh

            Yep he's always been a better boxer, but not a better fighter.

              what do you mean?
              khan has the heart and discipline and will probably surpass anything hatton has done in boxing.

                I mean exactly what i said, Khan is technically a better boxer, but hatton was a better fighter. Khan's chin will let him down when he fights someone with good technical ability and power.

                  He would be competitive for a while, but you just know a prime Hatton would find his way inside over and over again. Nobody could avoid hatton in his prime, his footwork was great and forced engagement.

                  I think Hatton would break his will in there and stop him. Hatton was gifted in ways that so many seem to forget. It may not have always been pretty, but it sure was effective.

                    Paulie tries to make Khan look good, he's a class act... or he just want to make himself look good so people can tell Malignaggi only lost to good fighters.

                      A prime 28 year old version of Khan smashes any version of Ricky. Their skill sets are like night and day.
