    He may win a title, but his days on top are done
    I am not sticking up for khan because i think his performance was **** but why is it on this site that people suggest the weight that you start boxing at is the weight division you will always be classified as?

    You do know diaz was the fighter coming down in weight tonight dont you?

      He's a bit more cautious but still the same fighter. I feel sorry for Khan, really do but this is it for him. His issues will never be fixed, he's stubborn. Look at Maidana, he changed for the better under Garcia, Khan still has that jittery/ shake motion before he shoots, he still doesn't opt to smother his opponent in close, still can't get under punches; backing up with his chin in the air, still bounces around like a maniac too...give it up people.

        I wasn't referring to him as a lightweight as in the weight division, i'm referring to him as a lightweight as in he's a weak opponent/tuneup.

            That always questionable chin has been well and truly cracked, and even at his young age, he has a lot of wear-and-tear on his body. Don't think he has a hope in hell against Garcia, Matthysse or PEDerson.

                Khan would kill broner...

                Bugger the name, better he performs.

                Look at mcclosky performance and then the judah performance straight after.

                Alot of people here looking at the short term...

                  Yeah because he performed so well against Peterson, and than got knocked out by Garcia.....

                  I could see Broner fighting Khan at 140 late this year.
