I don't think Golden Boy will let this fight happen, Guman is better than Garcia but doesn't bring nearly the same amount of viewers and he doesn't have a title. Only way Guzman fight Khan is if he beats Allahkverdiev and becomes the interim WBA champ. Then there would be some incentive for Khan to fight him.
But If they do fight I see Guzman beating Khan up, possible stoppage midway. He'll slip and roll Khan's straight shots and will come back with some nasty counters.

Khan's ranginess will serve a serious problem, more so now that he's coming off two straight loses, last one being by stoppage. Guzman, at this advanced age, will struggle to cut the ring off, this while attempting to evade Khan's punches. Granted Guzman's punching technique has improved, turning the punches over more, I don't think he's the puncher most in this thread are making him out to be. I've always said I'd pick Guzman against anyone at '40, but I don't like his chances against Khan. Winning rounds alone will be tough and I don't think Khan gets stopped or dropped in this one either. If Joan comes in with the kind of conditioning he showed against Soto, which was years ago, then I'd gladly pick him, right now I'm on the fence with this.

It's so weird,a lot of the same people in this thread talking about Guzman's gonna KO Khan...Were some of the same people saying that Peterson should not share a ring with Khan just recently...I feel Peterson is better then Guzman..I don't know when Guzman has install so much confidence in so many..Interesting..
