Khan clearly copied his style from Morales and Pacquaio

    Re

    Khan has a better chin than manny? Is that a joke? Manny has been hit by ko punches many a time and just smiled. Yes he has been knocked out cold by Marquez but it was a great shot he was hit with, if it had hit khan he would still be out cold to this day.

      But Khan will even acknowledge that is one thing that Manny has over him is the footwork and fast feet.

      A prime Pacman knew how to get in and out so quick to make up for his short arms and lack of reach, just watch the Oscar De La Hoya fight perfect footwork, his only mistake is when he lunges with punches and leaves the ground.

      Khan has a better chin, and faster hands thats all.
      Khan at his best is on his toes and never stops moving, and when have u ever seen him off balance? Manny lunges off balance all the time, plus he can't cut off the ring to save his life, both aspects of that depends on footwork

      Against De La Hoya, he was fighting a skeleton with one hand, so its obvious... Step away from his good hand... Not hard for any kind of supreme athlete

        No Khan has an ammy style footwork. Pacman lunges at times, but he has much better footwork and speed, he can place his feet and get in and out of range.

        Just look at his feet here he looks like he is floating like a butterfly its amazing how he can glide like that.

            Give Khan Erik Morales' ring IQ and chin and he'd be the GOAY

              I don't see the Morales comparison at all, Erik didn't bounce around like an idiot, Morales used a lot of feinting and actually worked the body. What the fuck man...

                Interesting, Khan doesn't seem to have the same smarts as Pacman, I just think Khan rushes in with blazing hands back out but, Manny's footwork is better IMO, alot of Manny's power comes from his calfs, I can't say the same for Khan, I think it's the velocity of his speed which gives him power, but he doesn't put his whole body into shots like Manny can.

                Maybe he has copied his style, but it's a poor carbon copy, much like what Broner is to Floyd.

                  Khan never reached the level of Pacquiao and Morales and it isn't only because of his glass chin.

                    It's a style of offense both Pacquaio and Morales have.

                    They set you up for a shot, and then when they hurt you, they try to knock you out. Some fighters just get you with a good shot, these guys made you pay for your mistakes.

                    Pacquiao and Morales are dragons walking amongst men

                      He's shadow boxing... Show me something in an actual fight

                      Khan's footwork is amateur... Amateur footwork tends to be much smoother, much more "butterfly" like for those that have the talent
