    Anyone else think khan looked drained?

    He looked tired and his face looked drawn. Also when he gave an interview he sounded tired and horsey. Anyone agree?

      He looked fine to me, obviously he'll be a little drained but after he takes some fluids and carbs up he should be fine. Also he's not done much strenght work for this fight, Virgil didn't want him to have a big back with excess muscle so he could move more fluidly.

        He looked considerably slimmer than his last 3-4 fights

          Yea i think he will have to move up sooner or later, it has to be a struggle for him to make 140 and under


          Although watching the docu, and looking at the pics and interviews, i think he has been doing mostly running and ring work, dont think Virgil really cares for over the top fancy strength training. Khan could end up like Hatton when he fought Pacman, he came in looking gaunt, was weak psychologically and unsure of his new found tactics.

          If there was ever a time to take advantage of Khan, it is now.

            No, he looked like most fighters do on the scales, a little dehydrated.

            I don't think people understand the term "weight drained"

              Yep, hence the selection of Molina as an opponent. A light puncher from a smaller division.

              Regarding Khan at the weigh in, I don't think he looks drained in the face. He's looking extremely thin physically though, but that's how a lot of fighters come in and it's before the hydration process so we;ll see.

                It takes time for new habits to bed in on a subconscious level. Under the gun you are better off going with with what you do naturally. It is going to be interesting how the new training works out.

                  Anyone here thinks getting hit by bigger guys would be a good idea for him? He will re hydrate fine i think .

                    an over reaction. When he looks even half of what Rios did against Murray, then you can call him weight drained
