Amir khan has too many flaws to fix

[TMTPromotions]

Boxing has had knockouts since day one, do those W's not count because the loser may have been "doing well" before getting caught?

To begin with, everything is not black & white.

Khan should've employed a tighter defence against Garcia and used his boxing ability, minimizing risks. Khan was winning against Garcia up until he got caught, how did he respond? Throwing shots back with no defence, asking to get stopped. If he had some composure, got back to his boxing, he could've made it through that round.

I like you as a poster but I'm in awe at how blind you are on this matter.

Why even bring up the Prescott loss?

Not only was Lightweight too low for Khan, he fought Prescott in Ramadam.

What's wrong with getting hurt by Maidana?

How can you not see these errors that Khan makes? Errors that shouldn't be made and can be easily rectified. Errors which are made through arrogance and his inexperience.

I'm not proclaiming if Khan improves in a few areas, he'll become an ATG. I'm saying if Khan can make the right changes and improve, he can beat the likes of Danny Garcia and Lamont Peterson.

i like you too, man. if everybody agreed on all of the topics we discuss in NSB it would be boring.

And most of them stem from ignorance.

Weak chin, weak mind, no defence at all, poor footwork, poor punch variety, average physical strength, average punch power.

The kid thinks he's the second coming of sugar ray Robinson.

He blames all HIS mistakes on the people who are actually trying to help him like Roach and Ariza, and never says anything about his doofus family or those greasy hangers on Saj and Asif Valli. Di****able yes men, who do him more harm than good.

I'm calling time on khan.

He will never learn

He's done alright for having so many flaws though, you dont become a World champ having all those flaws, I think you have exagerrated a little.

His main flaw is defense, when he's throwing punches he's doesnt appear to be thinking about blocking potential counters...and then when he gets caught his fighting instinct creeps in.

Im no expert but Khan IMO isnt a fighter be's a boxer, stick with the boxing and less of the brawling and he should be ok.

Did I say the win doesn't count?

True

But would you agree that Khan, potentially, could improve and right these wrongs?

I see with Khan, so many areas that could be improved and even an area ( inside ) that doesn't exist. I think all this will come about with Khan's new trainer.

for starters, he was not not dominating at all


and secondly, you can lose every second of ever round and get dropped, and then get caught and stopped, and you still lose.

the trouble started for khan in the third, after the big left hand. you're really willing to say that khan's a better fighter based on that?

he got completely destroyed, dude. how the hell is he a better fighter?

i think you should watch the fight again.

Khan is the better fighter, he just has no chin. I dont need to explain why because you have eyes.

Better fighter based on what? Him winning the first two rounds, getting outclassed and dropped like a sack of **** in the 3rd then getting beaten too a pulp and stopped in 4? lol

Look at the 3rd round, Khan was totally outclassed prior to the knockdown. Garcia killed the body & the glass neck followed.

Khan has always been very overrated. He makes for exciting fights these days, but it's his downfall. He'd be much, much better returning to the style he employed against Malignaggi. It makes for fairly dull boxing, but it's effective. He needs to keep distance and box, not trade with guys.
