    My thoughts on Khan.

    I always believed that Khan was overrated by some & disliked by others. I knew that he just doesn't waltz into 147 & dominates the side not named Floyd & Manny.

    I think last night proves that, however Khan did not lose that fight last night. Without the 2 points deducted, the fight was his. I also think that fight fans tend to overrate certain fighters & underrate others. Khan is a good fighter, but he is not the second coming.

    People need to think about Roach & his fighters, they are not these elite superfighters some would like to think they are. If no one respond, no matter, this is my belief.

    Just think what Roach's fighters would be without Ariza.

      I haven't changed my mind at all about Khan. Peterson has always been underrated, and is better than anyone at 147 except Pacquiao, Mayweather, and Ortiz, who he drew with.

      I still think Khan beats everyone except Pacquiao and Mayweather at 147, and Ortiz is the only one I'm not completely confident about Khan beating.

        I think Khan beats Pacman & Ortiz beats Khan. Any strong welterweight that's willing to put a body on Khan beats his a$$. His speed is good, but he can't take pressure. he seems like a generic Cotto to me.
