I didn't watch the fight. Did Khan really get hurt by Paulie?
Hey, I know Khan look great, but take it easy!

The chin might be something that holds him back, his defense has improved....and i think we should give him the benefit of the doubt, it was his first fight in america, he looked abit nervous in the first few rounds...when he settled in tho, he didnt look back once....he was all over paulie....Khan looked GREAT. But I gotta be honest, he still looked a little uncomfortable when he got hit, even by Malignaggi.
As good as Khan is, and he is VERY good, I just think Bradley and Alexander will definitely stop him. Cause even if they don't seriously hurt him, if Khan feels power he will get tentative and it will affect the way he fights.
And yeah i cant see him fighting them 2 at the moment....i wonder how he will handle their punches tho?
Considering hes worked on his legs so much lately..and the step up in weight
1 thing people forget is khan may have a bad chin, but hes got a hell of a heart....he wont give up....look at the prescott KO, he was GONE and he wouldnt stop tryin 2 get upComment

Khan performed really well last night, shown a good jab and stuck to his gameplan really well, I liked it how Khan managed to counter Paulies counterpunches later on in the fight, when he went in with the jab came out and back in with the jab or one two... worked well for him, but I think people are getting a little carried away here... hes got a lot more skilled recently but we still haven't seen how he can fair with somebody with a pretty good punch yet since Prescott, I am not saying him beating Paulie isn't legit... he beat a good opponent convincingly, but Alexanda and Bradley would be very tough fight for him and so would Maidana if he manages to get close up and land a few good punches, Khan would have to keep him at long range.
Good win, but I think some people are getting a little carried away... and I am happy for him to do good cause hes representing England. I remember just after the fight one guy saying (im not gonna mention his name) that if Khan had a chin he would be on par with the likes of Pacquiao and Mayweather... I mean come on now, thats just going too far... he beat a good fighter, lets just give him credit for that for the time being.Comment

Youre talking outa youre ass man, what better comp. Be conciderate and dont just dismiss other peoples opinions. Khans resume is very comparable to alexanders if not betterlmao if you think these rankings matter.
Alexander is unified champ and has fought bettter comp... Paulie was outmatched. Lets also not forget not too long ago Khan was finished in less than a minute by a lightweight, and holds a career best win against an old/blind BarerraComment
