HBO turns down Khan vs Soto

[dan_cov]

The thing is he really hasn't learned a thing from his amateur days and it shows if he is making the same mistakes & getting dropped & knocked out repeatedly by the same shot.
Can any trainer help him? I think a real strict oldschool trainer needs too crush his ego or something if there is any chance of drilling those bad habits out of him.

He just don't seem to ever learn from his mistakes and I'm certain he still thinks he is an elite level fighter. The guys got those Audley Harrison delusions going on.

I want matthysse in December

nacho beristain?

forget the HBO dates for now. being under the bright lights will only serve to inflate his ego. take a couple tuneups back home to sharpen his game if he wants to take his career seriously. khan is one power punch away from being on Friday Night Fights.

[dan_cov]

I'd be cool with either tbh though I would thoroughly recommend he doesn't fight Matthysse unless he wants flattening again and nowhere to go.
I think Soto is too dangerous at this stage actually.

I would say he needs to build his confidence up again and take a sort of tune up that won't be a complete walkover but hes just so delusional he actually said it was a lucky punch lol
I mean what the hell do you even say to that? lol

Maybe a domestic clash with Ashley Theophane in the U.K, that would sell well. Theophane doesn't have much power at all and he could always give it the old ''Theophane arguably beat Danny Garcia''
IDK.

I don't know how you can compare him to Audley Harrison. Khan is an accomplished fighter no matter what his detractors say.

The fact is Khan hasn't had a trainer that is willing to teach him to be more defensive minded. I've never seen Roach teach Khan defensive manoeuvres, how to hold effectively, or how to slip punches and move his head.

He reigned in Khan's aggressiveness some what, and he showed improvement for a couple of fights but he's been on the decline since.

I'm convinced that Khan would have coasted to victory against Garcia if he wasn't so reckless. He should never throw an uppercut or more than a two punch combination while on the front-foot ever again. He needs to be a double jab, right hand, at distance fighter for the rest of his career.

With improvement Khan can still beat the big names and go on to more success. He will lose a few more, but he will win more big fights than he loses if he makes the defensive improvements he needs. He's not too intelligent Khan, and relies on his heart too much, but he is a quick learner, a good listener, and very talented. With that kind of fighter who's still only 25, you can make a lot of improvements.

Yeah. I think he just stands with no head movement still thinking that the opponents will not likely to counter anything significant during his amateur days. The worst part is that when he moves up weigh or slows as he approaches say 28, he will be done fighting the same way.

HBO show include in it's contract, "If you get ktfo, we shouldn't be responsible for airing your comeback fights against easy opponents"

A three fight contract, should only include fights good enough for HBO. Let Khan fight a couple fighters elsewhere and when he is ready, let him finish his contract. Either way, I bet HBO wouldn't be interested in another contract with Khan when this one is over. Why dish out the big bucks only to have him fail again.

[Bushbaby]

That's a shame. So what if Khan hasn't won lately. At least when he loses, it's usually in spectacular fashion.

He also got dropped heavily in the amateurs by Scott Lawton with the very same punch. Michael Gomez also dropped him with a counter left hook.
