Would Khan of took Berto's power?

Khan took some of Maidana's shots and I would say Maidana is pretty close to Berto in power, but I don't think Maidana hits quite as hard as Berto. I don't see Berto landing many of those flush shots on Khan as Khan is the far, far, far more skilled fighter.
I know most of you guys think I'm crazy but I think Khan is on an elite level - there is just a clear gap of class between he and his opposition.Comment

I agree on all points. Manny Pacquiao would absolutely destroy Andre Berto inside of 3 rounds.Comment

I am not too sure.
I knew styles make fights, but I didn't know...Power? makes fights?
Look, Khan took Maidana's punches very well especially in the 10th round.
Yet Ortiz couldn't take Maidana's punches, he quit, was hurt badly.
Then, Ortiz moves up to 147, and takes punches from a bigger man than Maidana's easily, I mean Ortiz took Berto's punches easier than he took Maidana's punches.
This either:
1. Says a lot about Maidana's power even as a 140 pounder.
2. Says a lot about Ortiz's new attitude of not quitting.
3. Berto is not as big of a puncher as we thought he was, not that he's a weakling, just that he can't stop everybody.
In the end, that particular punch that Berto caught Ortiz with, I don't know if Khan takes it at 147. What if Khan becomes stronger as he goes up in weight? And his ability to take a punch gets better as he gets older?Comment
