You actually need to ask this? Hatton kills him. Khan can't fight.

Put pressure on him and you see how his instincts aren't really good. He gets flustered and his poor footwork and lack of inside game show. And that was against fighters with way less footspeed than Hatton, they were able to cut off the ring on Khan.

Hattons footspeed + inside game makes this an absolute nightmare of a fight for khan.
Khan has no way to hold hatton off, and nothing to stop Hatton from knocking him out when he gets there.
Khan has been knocked out by counter shots in exchanges. Not by pressure fighters where you can see the shots coming and anticipate attacks easier.
Despite struggling, Khan has beaten pressure guys like Maidana and Peterson - thats how i'd see the pattern of the fight going. And Hatton doesn't hit harder than someone like Maidana.Last edited by Dirk Diggler UK; 10-29-2012, 12:10 PM.

Khan has only ever looked good against stationary fighters, even slow ass lamont Peterson managed to get on his chest over and over again
Hatton doesn't hit harder in one punch than maidana, but he's a millions times more effective on the inside than Marcos, and is actually mobile
Seriously if you think this is close, i'd suggest you haven't seen much of Hatton other than the Floyd and pac fightsLast edited by Earl-Hickey; 10-29-2012, 05:32 PM.

Hatton is all the wrong style for khan, prime hatton had very fast foot speed, he would close the distance and get to where he wants against khan. khan is getting roughed up and probably hurt if hatton can land a good shot without smothering himself.

You seem to ignore the fact that Khan could stick a jab in Ricky's face and Ricky wouldn't be able to do **** about it. Khan could bust Ricky's face up badly with fast combinations before Ricky could even get anywhere near him.
I think Hatton would get eventually to him because Khan slows and starts losing his compiosure.
It'd be Khan's first early and Hatton's late. Very even match-up.

he was koed by a 135lb prescott and danny garcia! dannys good fighter but no prime hatton
omg i wish this could have happend hatton would have crushed him
hatton makes it a brawl kahns dumb enough to let him
hatton in 2 or 3 rds
yeah youre right I forgot about khans tendency to want to trade, which is why he would get ktfo. hatton wouldnt have to worry about finding those big shots, khan would basically let him have them.

Originally posted by el*** View Posteven seeing the floyd fight you can see how fast hattons foot speed was in his prime. floyd couldnt fight at the distance he wanted because hatton was too fast and hattons chin was pretty good too so he would take the one shot coming in and then just keep coming. now floyd is great on the inside which is why he won, khan not so much....
Ricky could not cope with Pacquiao's speed early on and that's the only guy he's fought that's comparable to Khan in terms of handspeed. Although Khan probably wouldn't be able to hurt him in the same way, he'd land a significant amount of punches on Ricky's face early in the fight.
