    porter isnt a hard hitter tho, its not shocking. and i dunno why ppl are bringing porter up. theres a reason his career has been stalled for the last 2 years. everyone should just keep it real. khan doesnt have the chin to sustain 12 rounds of accurate shots from anyone with a good level of power. and broner not koing paulie does not mean he doesnt have power.

      The poll

      Khan is horrible defensively, technique sucks, when will people get it? How many times does he need to get fucked up before people realize how average he is?

        This idea that Khan will be KOd by anyone who isn't Malignaggi is ***ing hilarious

          Khan has the style and boxing ability to give Broner all sorts of problems and potentially beat Broner... but I think his chin makes him unpredictable, say what you want about Broners power at WW, but I still think hes got enough power to hurt Khan.

            I don't disagree, though I'm not as sure as I was a day ago. Khan will be shutting him down for long stretches, and it's really in his hands. If he stays disciplined, he wins. Easier said than done.

            But anyway, I was making a narrow point, about Diaz. If you saw the Porter fight you must have been surprised by both his durability and power. I'm far from a Khan fan, but I was saying the same thing in the buildup to Khan Diaz.

              Khan can only beat powerful punchers when they're slow, like Maidana and Matthysse. Broner's too quick and accurate with that counter cross. People need to watch the paulie fight again in slow motion to see just how dominant Broner was.

                i wouldnt say he was dominant because it is a legit criticism that he wasted a lot of time not throwing. with that said. when he did throw, his accuracy was off the charts. and he threw everything very well. straights, crosses, hooks, uppers. ppl really think broner is trash now, but that variety is not something thats common nowadays. no way does a guy like khan survive so easily from what we have seen in the past.

                  Broners 'power' is overrated. Fighting midgets and putting on 20 pounds overnight...


                  Khan is due a good performance... Think Alexander is going to be on the recieving end of it in december.

                    I think Khan takes this one.

                      Broner stops him in a close fight, maybe he's down some points but he stops Khan.
