    Given what we have seen from Khan I think its fair to say that this fight would end up looking like the Quintana fight. Except that the KO would come from a head shot not a body shot.

    Paulie was a nice matchup for Khan. I don't think we'll see Khan in with a real threat or a real puncher for another 2-3 years. I see a few Paulie and Nate type of solid fighters or past it fighters for the near future.

      He did, and he could ended early that is a possibility high possibility. But, the when a fighter is weight drained they get weaker and weaker the deeper the fight goes. If Khan can take him deep, I can see with his size, reach, speed, and jab taking over the fight. But, I again he would have to take him deep which won't be easy.

        You're right, that's why I said that Khan's best chance would be to bumrush him early. That Cotto might not be able to stand up to Khan's best shots.

        But he better get him early before Cotto gets a chance to connect because once he does it'd be curtains for Khan.

          Cotto hits too hard at that weight. And hes a much better boxer than Khan is. I just see no way he wins at that weight. Cottos timing,pressure, speed , jab and left hook does damage in this fight.

              I agree that was the weakest, unhealthiest, most weight drained version of Cotto seen in his career.

              He still destroys Khan. Hard.

              Stoppage in the middle rounds. Think Quintana, Jennings.

                Khan by brutal KO.

                Allah saves Cotto from a near certian death.

                  Khan would be able to get a round or two by outboxing Cotto. Until about round 3 or 4 when Cotto lands a nuclear bomb which puts Khan to sleep. Forever.
