Khan has never fought a prime fast puncher. Maidana might have more pop than Berto but he's slow as hell, against Berto Khan will have to eat several big right hands and it wouldn't end well for him.

Khans best win to date is Maidana and hes was tailor made for Khan and he still got ****** up in that fight.
You gotta be on something if you think Bigger, Faster, More skilled Berto wont touch Khan just as often if not more.
Berto is a big muscular guy. A guy who will gas out. Khan will keep him on the outside and box to a UD.
Berto may cry.Comment

You say as if hes at that level where he can pull off a boxing clinic for 12 rounds against a fighter of Bertos caliber. Hes not at that level yet, he couldnt pull that kind of performance against Miadana, hows he gonna do it against Berto? As one denominational as Berto is hes just as fast, has more reach and much much stronger.Comment

Berto has the fact that he's a natural welterweight going for him in this matchup. He suits the weightclass perfectly and he has excellent build but he has no game and he has no reach.
Whats he gonna do? Grow an extra two inches in height and on his arms?
Khan is gonna be natural at 154. It will be his optimum fighting weight in my opinion. However in going up to 147 I believe he will outgame Berto.
I haven't seen Berto tested except against an Ortiz that JUST popped out of 140 where he was dazzled by Maidana and Peterson.Comment

TBH we haven't seen Khan tested either unless you want to call Maidana a test Berto's power and hand speed is going to be a problem unless Khan moving to 147 improves his chin by a lot.Comment

I just can't see how Berto can beat Khan...He just not that good. I can see Bradley(even though he's ducking Khan) beating Khan. But, Berto? I don't know, he's an average fighter at best.
Floyd dominates Khan. Ortiz has a better chance against Khan than Berto does. And, I will pick Khan to edge out Ortiz.Comment

I would love to see this fight. Very interesting to see how Khan deals with Berto's size,speed and power. Khan is a tall jrww so he might appear larger but Berto is a career ww who i think fought as a mw either early in his career or as an amateur.Comment
