    What's ya grade for Khan??

    I'm gonna give him a C+..He did box effectively but terrible opponent(Molina)and he was still getting hit with some counter shots as well...Those shots by a better puncher would hurt Khan as well...

    What's some grades from the fans...

    This is part 2..Funny my grade for him is the same,C+..

    Again,he was getting caught by the same punch..This time by a better puncher and paid for it..But he did still show very good boxing ability and did fight a bit more smart when hurt..I don't know if he's ready to be in the ring with the upper class right now..But I guess the time is now..

    What's some grades??

    I agree with the C+. I thought he'd look a little better. There was improvement, but he needs more.

        B-

        One 8 week camp wouldn't show a drastic change. I think everyone was expecting too much, it's a slow process. He showed he can take his time, which is a good thing. Going back to a higher volume of jabs is a great sign 'cause he has an awesome jab, when used right.

          its a long road.

          8 weeks wont change 7 years of flaws.

          we'll see in 3 years time.

            I agree with Terrel his jab was impressive and it should really be his M.O.

            Still got caught with left-hooks but you have to give Molina some credit there. He did fight inside with Molina but you would wonder if he would do the same against Peterson or Garcia because Khan was far stronger than Molina.

            He looked at his best when he punch output was reduced to double and even triple jabs as soon as would he a left-hook part of me expects him to end up on his arse.

            Khan is really exciting though, I really like him.

            Khan's best performance is still the Malignaggi fight I feel. Interesting what Malignaggi said that Khan respected the defense of himself and Judah and his attacks were more circumspect. Againt Maidana, Garcia, and even Peterson he just backed himself to beat them to the punch every time. Can't help but think Khan will always do the same when faced with a pressure fighter.

            I dunno I'll give him a B. It was still pretty exciting though Molina was completely outgunned.

              B- I think his offence was real sharp, cut the guy up in the first, but his defence still was loose. It helped that he picked his times to attack a lot more carefully, but still leaves himself very open when he is leaning forward. A few more years and fights and maybe Hunter can get his defence solid.

                    hand speed = A-
                    power = C+
                    footwork = B-
                    head movement = C

                    offense = B+
                    defense = C+

                    overall = B

                    khan throws a lot punches, but mostly arms punches that just wants to touch you up not knock you down. he needs to perfect his winning shot, the right straight sound good for him
