Khan Trying To Be Like Pacquaio/Mayweather Hybrid : Must Read

[Dedication]

Up until round 8 he wasn't touching gloves. I think it was round 9 when I first noticed him do it. that's when I knew Khan had submitted to peterson. What fighter doesn't touch gloves at the start of the fight but then start doing it when's getting bust up? That's the sign of a loser.

Pity he cant fight like either of them.

Isn't that the round when Shane Mosley did the same thing against Mayweather?

Submissive body language.

Exactly, and Mayweather clocked him one.

khan loves floyd u can see it all over his style, hes just not as natural at it as floyd is. floyd looks like freaking neyo from the matrix compared to these fighters

Floyd = Neo Great comparison lmao

If Amir Khan develops an inside game, learns to use some counter shots, and gets rid of his psychological insecurity about being called chinny (which he isn't), he could very well become a hybrid-esque fighter.

Pretty sure Margarito did the same thing against Pac.

Have I missed anything?

Khan is trying to combine the defense of Mayweather and the offense of Pacman and it doesnt really work well.

khan was using alot of elbows to petersons face

Yeah I noticed these things too, and especially one thing came to my mind when I read the title.

Notice when Amir was on the ropes, Lamont would rough him up. Several times when Amir got hit in that situation he made his lower lip stick out, made a downwards mouth expression and shaked his head, just like Floyd did in the Ortiz fight.

Only exception is that Floyd wasn't getting hit...
