im i the only one that sees khan for what he really is?

[bballchump11]

As long as he's beating everyone who cares? it's not like he is maragrito who blocks punches with his face. I mean the two biggest punchers at 140 couldn't take him out. His defense is his offense I wouldn't want him to start being defensive because it would take away his strengths.

fair enough. Also I'm not the type to say his defense sucks either. I think he's good at not being hit, but he can learn to parry punches better.

You guys are being too harsh, he doesn't have the worst D, he at least is keeping his hands up and the fact that he is being so offensive keeps most of his opponents on the defensive. Khan also throws much more than 1s and 2s, I enjoy watching him, he is TV friendly, and the possibility that he could get caught on his not so iron chin makes his fights suspenseful.

have too admit he is afighter to watch.

His defense is his offense you see how judah couldn't get off because Khan always beat him to the punch. And remember Judah is known for his timing with that left hand but yet he couldn't hit Khan with it. If it ain't broken dont fix it.

for a guy like him, that works when ur bigger than every guy u fight. but when he comes up to ww, different story. he wont be able to use those punches to keep ppl off him, hed get bullied by some of the names out there.

He seems to try and use his legs and footwork as his defense, for the most part. Not necessarily anything wrong with that, unless someone's able to step with you and catch you on the way out, which is exactly what Maidana, Prescott and Michael Gomez all did. Otherwise he doesn't move his head a lot, which he should definitely improve.

Amir's punch resistance seems to have gotten better for whatever reason though, because Maidana cracked him with some nasty ones and never did he go down.

I'd actually still like to see him in with Bradley, even if that fight would produce a ton of headbutts. Amir leans in with his head when he reaches to land and Timmy uses his as a type of sweaty mace. Could get ugly, but that's THE fight to make at 140 for all the marbles.

Not really. who in the WW division actually has the style that applies a lot of pressure? Maidana laid the blueprint, Khan can be beat if you get close to him and smother him but that's easier said than done because you would have to have that style and be tough as nails to withstand Khan's punches when you come in.

stop getting your panties bunched up.

Brandon Rios could break Amir down and knock him out. Rios is pressure fighter with hell of a chin and ko power and has much better skills than Maidana.

Im just speaking the truth son. Go watch more boxing. Cuz Roger thinks you dont **** about it.

ortiz is a great pressure boxer when he wants to be. berto isnt exactly a pressure fighter, but hes more than capable with his speed and power of getting on the inside to bust opponents up. mike jones isnt gonna be deterred by khans 1,2s and khans accuracy issues would get him a serious beating in the ring with floyd.
