    I don't think Khan has the power to deter Mosley from pulling the trigger and I don't think he has the defence to avoid his heavy hands.
    I agree with everything that you said. I don't think Mosley has enough punching power to KO Khan though. Khan took Maidana's punches so he can handle Shanes but Shane has enough physical strength to bully Khan in the ring and make things interesting. These styles might match up for a good fight. It certainly won't be Mosley Mora 2. I wouldn't mind this one.

        Yeh but what about his draw with Mora in between those fights?

        Mosley doesn't need to fight anymore. For khan it will make him some money and put him in the puplic eye.

        Last time he lost he beat an over the hill atg and that worked out ok.

          I actually think this is a nice cross roads fight. Aslong as in the build up they dont try to sell it as Khan vs a great fightre in their prime. Let the truuth be known that Shane is a decade or two past his best but is still a threat because Khan is chinny.

          It would be a decent scalp for Khan. Shane has been outpointed by Floyd and Pac but if those two are considered the best and neither could stop him, it would be a statement by Khan if he could. Id Shane enters the ring with some ambition who knows we might even see a fight!

            Mosley has one hell of a puncher's chance, but if Khan is for real he should win, and I think he would.

              Not the greatest fight in the world, but there would be a little intrigue in the first couple of rounds as Khan doesn't have the greatest chin in the world and a shaky defense at times and even now where Mosley is shot, he still has a punchers chance in the early rounds.

              However, still wouldn't want to see this fight, or certainly not pay for it, as it'd probably be a stinker of a fight with a lot of darting in and out from Khan trying not to get hit and Mosley conserving his energy by not throwing a lot. Would like to see Khan just take on a top 10 contender first before jumping in with Senchenko or trying to get the IBF title!

                AND Mora. He's had a consistent pattern of not throwing punches. Whenever he does throw punches they are pitty pat non-sense. If he's not throwing meaningless punches he's just standing there jittering or holding. He's not the same.

                  Terrible fight, Shane will get busted up.

                  If there's ANY fight that Shane wants to take right now (insteasd of just retiring like he should) it should be against someone who doesn't have speed. Khan is one of the worst options, he will get overwhelmed just like against Mayweather. The explosiveness is gone, he can't pull the trigger anymore.
