I disagree, even though paulie had success khan would come back and out jab paulie and landed the cleaner, crisper shots. Ledderman gave every round to khan.
Paulie had much more success in the earlier rounds. Especially in the 2/3rd in which he slipped and countered most of Khan's shots. When Khan tried to come in with combos, Paulie would get out of the way and Khan would end up missing a lot.
Paulie was very slick at the start, but Khan started to take him apart as the fight went on.
I'd love to give Khan every round, but that wasn't the case. I'm not bothered what Lederman had it - he's a ****.
IMO he dropped 2 rounds to both Kotelnik and Malignaggi. Otherwise, yeah, Roach has made a world of difference. Gone is the wild, defence-lacking, scrap-happy Khan from the Limond and Gomez days. In his place is an even faster, defensively-minded boxer who has a better idea of what gameplan to follow.
Despite all the negative stuff I've said about him recently, I still enjoy watching him do his work in the ring. He's a thrilling and exciting fighter.
