        this^^^^^^^

        not a good fight for AK atm...later on, it could be different because Khan is by far the better fighter imo...just the ability to take certain punches..I'm not one of those who think he has a glass chin, I saw him take some big shots from Maidana without going down, he took some big shots from a roided up Peterson without going down..so that GLASS label is one of boxing's myths imo

          I think a lot has to do with which Thurman shows up.

          If its the patient, boring, low work-rate version looking to land one perfect shot - I give Khan a chance.

          If he turns up like he did for Quitana, Khans career is over inside 3 rounds.

            If it's the Thurman that I saw bulldoze Quitana then it's over inside 6/7 for Khan.

            I'm not quite sure Khan gives Thurman a boxing lesson. Khan will get caught at some stage,it's in his nature and once he does it's lights out.

            I mean can anyone really see Khan staying disciplined and out of trouble for 10/12 rounds? I just don't see it. Not unless he's made MASSIVE improvements under Hunter.

              Again, I'm not a fan of Khans, but he got struck by lightning against Garcia. He was schooling him before he got caught by the luckiest punch I've ever seen in my life. Garcias eyes were closed... He knew khan was coming in for another combo...he pullled away and let a hook out there... When he opened his eyes, khan was down. It was the equivalent if a Hail Mary TD Pass winning a game that wasn't close. I hate khans ego and **** talking, but I call it as I see it.

                Khan has trouble taking punches from 140 lbers. You want him to move up in weight and fight a jr middleweight big puncher who's coming down?

                  You lost all credibility with the bolded. You can GTFO now.

                    I would say Khan is more green than Thurman and has lower ring IQ by far.

                      Keith Thurman would obliterate Khan in less than 4 rds. You hear how hard Thurmans shots sound..he is a mini Foreman. I dont see anyone trying to fight him now after he blasted the hell out of Quintana.
