      Had Mcloskey decided to actually throw a punch, he would have been a rabbit in headlights. Easy to make someone look bad when all you do is shoulder roll and retreat like a frenchmen.

          Khan is getting stronger each fight IMO. He is learning new punches.

          Vs paaulie he learnt a good jab. He was always fast and threw a lot under Harrison, but under roach his jab became precision and piston like. However he wet back to basics that he didn't throw combo's like when he was green.

          In the Maidana fight I saw more body shots and also he learned to hold on, and had more of a left too. So he learnt to use some hooks.

          In the Mcclowskey fight he looked ****, I believe reebok gloves are too soft but also khan needs ariza, he just works the body well. Mccklowskey was very defensive and a southpaw. It wasn't gonna look great.

          In the Judah fight khan learned to use some uppercuts and pace himself better. That way he maintains power.

          What khan has not learnt is better footwork. His inside fighting is poor. As for keeping his hand low when he jabs, yes he has always done it but so do so many others.


          Peterson has grown from his experiences with ortiz and Bradley. He is better than before because Cayo was a good fight.

          Peterson will test khan physically, his inside game and strength.

          Khan must not fight it maidana style of he has a chance to gas out. Throwing that many punches takes it it of your lungs. He must pot shot and move.

          What I will guarantee is, this fight will be a success. It's gonna be exciting.

            Rome is reaching.

            How do you ko someone when you fade lol.

            In fact thinking of it, Khan still had pop in the 11th and 12th vs Maidana. He hit maidana with a sick uppercut in the 11th and a few good combo's in both.

            Kotelnik was an easy fight for Khan, his first by test so he kept on the move, kind of Haye vs valuev style.

            I agree khan fades a little but not much as I thought.

            Next people will say he faded vs paulie of even he faded be Salita lol.

            Gomez also got hurt and dropped.

            Khan gets hurt sometimes but he has a good engine. Get most boxers to Punch at his output as fast as they can and they will fades

                If Khan beats Peterson I don't think anybody could doubt that Khan is the best Light-Welterweight out there.

                Other than Salita, who was his mandatory, Khan has beaten 5 top-10 ranked fighters. A win over Peterson would make it 6. Khan's resume > Bradley's.

                WAR KHAN!

                  Khan will be the first fighter to stop Peterson. Late TKO for Khan.
