    If Khan starts break dancing in the ring against Devon Alexander should he give up

    I mean being brutally hones, I gave him the benefit of the doubt against Willie Limond and Bredis Prescott, with Prescott being similar to the Mares situation, but the Garcia KO was disastrous mentally and physically, I really got worried when he did the stanky leg at the end of round 3... looked like a giraffe like another poster has stated. Round 4 he was completley thrown around like a rag doll break dancing all over the place... And seeing him hanging on for dear life against Diaz was depressing, Devon isn't the hardest hitter but he has a solid resume and has KO'd guys before... his power probably isn't too different from Diaz's power.

    Even if Khan beats Devon Alexander I'm worried for him.... Matthysse and Garcia will move up to 147 after their fight and Keith Thurman will smell a match with Khan if he gets past Devon... and man if they fight Khan I would be truly worried. Against the likes of Matthysse and Thurman Khan would probably fly into the crowd Garcia would do the exact same thing. Broner would dance with him after KO'ing him and then do a worldstar.... I was optimistic for Khan after Maidana but now I'm afraid he is shopworn and is becoming a mere stepping stone for other fighters.

        If Alexander drills him loads will say Alexander is good and bring up Alexander stopping Urangu, saying he has power and they'll continue to hype Khan up to oblivion and have him deluding himself again.

        Realistically if Alexander stops him he should contemplate retiring or accept the fact hes not a world class fighter.

        The reality is considering Khan has had such few fights hes took some horrific punishment!
        Drizdane dropped him and was landing at will, Willie Limmond the same as well Michael Gomez.
        The Prescott loss, Garcia loss. Peterson hit him with everything, Maidana & Diaz fights was grueling.

        You have to worry for a guy like that, if he doesn't get stopped he doesn't recover well and just continues to take major punishment. Hes only 26!

          Did he hurt Maidana? I haven't seen that. From what I've seen from Devon is speed, underrated skills and a granite chin. I think this is a bad move for Khan's first fight at 147... it would have been a good for Khan is 2010 but now that the cat is out of the bag I think Devon will take his punches well and really sit on his punches and have Khan doing the stanky leg again.

              Khan has such poor coordination and balance when punching, he pivots off the front foot leaving his chin right in the air, when he gets hit he never ties his opponent up or keeps his hands up, he fights with emotion instead of logic.

              Khan's a nice guy man I don't wanna see him doing this again

                Hi Troll.

                Should Danny retire when Lucas hospitalises him?

                  Lucas will get whooped like Khan if he comes in wild. Even if Lucas wins, Danny can just get another payday against Khan and make him do the stanky leg again

                    Khan may have a poor chin, but he's technically more gifted.

                    He was raking up Garcia's face before the knockdown. Shame Amir can't take a punch.

                    Surprised Garcia took the fight. Shouldn't he be fighting some shot-to-**** 40 year-old?
