Paul Williams and Amir Khan: On a Collision Course?

Yeah, if Khan whips out his johnson in the ring, I can see Alexander being too hysterical to fight him right. Khan might land 41% of his punches then. But real talk, Khan's jab is not an iron rod. It's speedy but the kid doesn't have any one punch power, certainly not like Alexander does. Alexander's no slugger, but he has enough pop knock iron-chinned Urango the **** out.Comment

Khans jab very much an iron rod. Roach said it was like tito and del la hoya. You can laugh all you want but you will have to eventually except it. Also khan was wearing rebook glovs not the "Punchers" reyes gloves. It would have done even more damage to the neck of malignaggi.Yeah, if Khan whips out his johnson in the ring, I can see Alexander being too hysterical to fight him right.

Youtube videos of alexander's so called "boxing clinics" are very misleading. They basically chop out footage every 5 seconds, edit it frame by frame and piece them together to give the illusion that alexander is faster than he really is.
Khan will also exploit his stamina issues, later on in the fight. Alexander is vulnerable to the left hook, however khan got rid of that problem after the prescott fight.Comment

Khan was very offensive cause the incomming was light and infrequent. Heavily doubt that he can manage the same against a heavier puncher or such a busy fighter. That fight is too far any way, he has alot of great challenges just where he is at right nowComment

So because Roach ups his own fighter, I'm supposed to believe that he has a jab like Oscar? Come on, dude...And watching entire Alexander fights shows that he is an incredibly gifted you fighter. He's like a new Pernell Whitaker. Obviously not on that level, but the similarities are there - pocket defender who throws a lot of punches. And I've seen Alexander as vulnerable to a lead right hook but never a left. As a southpaw, he has a natural advantage avoiding the left hand.Khans jab very much an iron rod.

Why should I not believe it? especially when I've seen it in the ring on saturday.So because Roach ups his own fighter, I'm supposed to believe that he has a jab like Oscar?

Direct me to some FULL COMPLETE alexander fights on youtube. I may then reconsider my position on that.
But edited footage dosent cut it for me. I could do an editing job on marcos maidana right now and even make him appear fast on his feet and hands.
Khan was pocket defending in the malignaggi fight. On the ringpost, check left uppercut would have hatton'd malignaggi if it wasnt for his iron chin. This takes place in round 4 of the fight. Mayweather would be proud.
Khan also did an inside right hand which buckled malignaggi's legs in round one. Bernard hopkins would be proud of that. Actually even he was sitting at ringside.
"He's like a new Pernell Whitaker" - Ok then, If you want to go that far then I can say that khan is the new tito/de la hoya.
Khan has the same power as alexander.Last edited by Vadrigar.; 05-20-2010, 02:07 PM.Comment
