    If he fights a prime guy like Bradley he is going to sleep.

      Khan has made some huge improvements as a fighter, you have to give him that. He looks pretty awesome at times.

      But the thing is, he is looking awesome against guys tailor made for him. Kotelnik is a very good fighter, but a guy with Khan's length speed and skills is always going to beat a shorter, slower defensive minded guy without a world class punch. With Paulie, comparable skills to Khan, but shorter and without a punch at all. The type of fighter to beat Amir Khan is a guy who can go into rugged, come forward mode, and who has a world class shot at 140. Simple.

      Khan has the potential to outbox and beat up nearly anyone with his speed, skills and rangey build. But a guy with a good shot will always be 100% in the fight. Khan can't keep avoiding the big punchers at 140 much longer, he will get out safely maybe 1-2 more fights before he will practically be forced to fight an Ortiz or a Maidana if he wants to stay at the top level.

      Both those guys can get outboxed by Amir, but man, they can definitely take him out with one shot, definitely.

      I do see Amir getting stopped again in the next few years, yes.

        It will be like Terry norris. Very good fighter, but he won't be able to go through a line of top quality guys without being put on his ass again. Just doesn't have the beard.

            I been watching Khan since the start on those ITV cards and he has been hurt by some real weak punchers, he has one of the worst chins i have seen in a top flight fighter. I am 100% sure he will get knocked out again. The guy has some good skills though so its hard to land on him these days but if you can get a good shot in he will be in trouble.

              Khan will win big fights, and he will lose big fights.

              However as a boxer, he is the most talented and has the most potential at 140.

                Bradley has very little power. Kotelnik hits about as hard as Bradley and Khan walked though his shots easily.

                I doubt Bradley KO's Khan. Maidana and Ortiz have a much better chance.

                  No. Ortiz is the most dangerous fight for Amir.

                    Well Willie Limond is a weak puncher and he had Khan in serious trouble, Bradley has enough power to hurt Khan imo, Prescott nearly put Khan down with a jab.
