Khan chin will let him down in the future

[Traveler1]

victor Ortiz? Devon Alexander would have had him out or at least force the ref to stop the fight I was sure the fight was over at the 10th honestly couldn't believe Maidana couldn't catch up to a wobbly and dazed Khan


how fucking slow can you be

It's not so much that he's slow, but that he was just beyond winded at that point. He was barely getting up from his stool in the previous rounds. Although I have to agree with you wondering how he couldn't knock him out in the 10th. He was completely ignoring Khan's body and instead going after his head which Khan had covered up well with his arms and gloves.

[Uturn]

No. His defense will let him in the future, plus he gets far to careless in the later rounds. Khan lacks discipline to box for 12 rounds, he gets drawn into things he doesn't need to get involved in. Khan will get exploited again.

[Shadows]

It possibly could.

The move up has helped his resistance, but I don't think he'll ever have a good or above average chin (until proven otherwise, of course).

He can help this by improving his leaky defense and developing an inside game (and how to defend on the inside specifically), which he really lacks. He's a largely long range fighter at this point.

Khan has a bit of the JML vibe IMO. Skilled and talented, but vulnerable and seemingly chinny, which leads to exciting and dramatic fights. I look forward to their next fights because of it.

I've got a feeling it will happen too, unfortunately.

It shouldn't, but it will. Don't know who will do it to him though.

I think khan was lucky enough to be at the top at the right time when all the big ****ers have left. Image if he came in when hatton, tszyu, gotti, Mayweather, Torres, Cotto where all on top. Khan would never survie that era of 140lbs hatton, tszyu and cotto would murked him.

some of you dudes are really dumb. The guy was getting hit by one of boxing's biggest punchers p4p and he dealt with it a lot better than he has in the past. His chin is fine now. its pretty clear him fighting at lightweight hurt him in that department.

stop hating. He's boxing's next superstar.


And for the record, I'm not even a fanboy of his.

Eventually maybe, if he moves up high enough.

But Roy Jones managed to craft an incredible career with an average chin.

[kedashy]

That,s why roy was saying that,s it khan hit and move hit and move... I know that,s what you suppose to do but, i got the feeling even roy was willing khan to run and run fast... He escaped a big lost yesterday... Will see what,s next for khan... Maybe another malignaggi...if that,s how u spell his name...

I think the winner of Bradley-Alexander for Khan.

Khan looks amazing against boxers which Alexander is and Bradley is a pressure fighter with boxing ability and little power.

I think he'd beat both of them, Ortiz is a harder fight for Khan because of the styles, he hits very hard and accurately even though he has defensive and mental deficiencies.
