    Holy **** Khan beating a one dimensional fighter automatically makes him > Pacquiao? ROFL

    This dude is getting hyped as **** right now and the funny part is that Maidana is the one who made more fans last night.

      Khan is good but we still don't know exactly how good he is. He needs to beat the winner of Bradley vs Alexander before we can crown him the best at 140.

        i don't think so.


        khan is technically better than manny. he'd lose to manny head to head though.
        a lot of fans are always saying this BS. That technically inferior manny is beating a lot bigger men and he is doing it in spectacular fashion... making the big men look silly.

        Technical is one of the most abused word in this forum.

        Manny's style has captured the imagination of non-boxing fans all over the world. Young boxers are imitating his style. Technical or not, his style is effective.

          Most post that I have read are downright foolish bordering on idiocy. Some are intelligent but are normally trashed by uneducated posters.

          How can khan beat pac or floyd if he relies solely in his speed? In his fight with Maidana did any of you notice how he backpedals without countering? He couldn't take advantage of the terribly slow Maidana coming forward. Maidana ****s his right hand while coming forward and he does it many times. Khan can't and didn't take advantage of that. Pac counters a lot even on retreat. He floored many opponents with it.

          Khan when pursued has the habit of standing still in a highguard posture. He freezes in that position that allowed opponents to sneak in uppercuts and hookshots. Pac gets cornered too, but his lateral movements is far superior to Khan. Pac when cornered slips away easily turning his opponent then makes combos. Do you see Khan doing that?

          He is not yet near Pac or Floyds class. Maybe two or three more years he will be, but at this time I hope he doesn't fight any one of them.

            Is Presscot a bigger puncher than Maidana?

            Come on..


            How did Khan survived those shots from Maidana when Presscot KTF him out in 1 round?

            This is an absolute FACT that Khan is on PEDS.
