      I have that feeling also,although Amir may want to carry him a few rounds to put on a show.

        McCloskey will have to rely upon all his boxing knowledge and skills to weather the early storm, keep moving the head and if possible try and drag Khan into a war. I don’t expect McCloskey, although a good boxer in his own right, to outbox Khan, he simply can’t match him for speed.

        The key for McCloskey is to get the fight on the inside. Khan doesn’t seem to have much of an inside game, instead he relies on his quick reflexes to get him out of trouble.

          Amir Khan by brutal TKO 1:56 in to the 2nd round, Khan up 120-107 on all 3 judges scorecards at the time of the stoppage.

            Slick but no power. Malignaggi is even slicker than McCloskey imo and you saw how that fight ended up. McCloskey just has a few more KO's than Malignaggi. If you don't have the power to keep Khan off you, you better a be some master counterpuncher, very fast hands, and have the best defense in the world. A weakling just can't go in there thinking he will keep Khan off of him.

              Khan is gonna get some rounds in, he wont just try to spark him out, which he can do

              So i say TKO maybe 6 or 7th round.

              I think it will be kind of like Bute-Magee in a way
