I agree with most of what u are saying...
Both fighters put on an outstanding performance! The whole Khan/ Mayweather thing was in response to someone who wanted to compare this fight with Mayweather/Mosley as far as Khan's superiority over Maidana! It was clear to see that Khan has special God given gifts in the speed department but overall he is still a work in progress. He was very hittable by a much slower and uncoordinated opponent. Khan is a brilliant young talent, I take nothing away from him but either his defense has to improve or he will continue to be in life or death type situations when facing the top guys at 140 as well as 147! He will also pose a threat to anyone he faces because his offensive game an pure speed is very formidable even at this moment in his young career. The glass chin thing IMO is still something to keep an eye on because he was hit a few times but was hit only 1 time cleanly to the chin and the whole fight changed in an instant. Did he survive, Yes! Did he look good doing it, No! Can he get better, YES! WILL HE GET BETTER, WE SHOULD ALL HOPE SO! These guys are the future of our SPORT so we as Boxing fans have to be more supportive and get behind them in hopes that they will be the next super stars, like De la hoya, Mayweather and Pacquiao. It's just hard to when BOXING experts like Freddy Roach make statements like Khan has what is takes to defeat Mayweather and has Khan actually trying to convince the public that he can do it and then shows the flaws that would leave anyone saying CHILD PLEASE! LOL! IT WAS A GREAT FIGHT and I GIVE BOTH FIGHTERS PROPS!
