    I think Khan would take Broner to school.

    People are citing Khans chin, and while he doesn't have a good one it certainly isn't the already cracked class people make it out to be. Khan usually gets up and tries to fight back, instead of holding or running. Broners power doesn't seem to have carried at all, which isn't surprising considering he was a huge lightweight, fighting small lightweights. I doubt he can knock Khan out, at least not very easily.

    Broner struggles with people who move, his stance is too wide, and he is too flat footed. Khan has quick feet, and he is also alot longer than Broner, he will be able to control the distance and keep moving. He will control the distance with his jab, which is lightning quick and not half bad. Broner couldn't handle Paulie moving around and jabbing him, that fight was close enough to go either way possibly, and I love Paulie but Khans attributes make it appear that he will be able to outbox Broner that way alot easier than he could.

    Khan will be lighting him up with 3-4 punch combos and moving out, Broners hands aren't all that quick and he is nearly a sitting duck for that type of fight with his stance and lack of movement.

    Broner could also very well just out time Khan coming in and flatten him completely, but I find that the less likely scenario.

    I used to hate Khan with a passion, still not a fan of his whiney ass but the dude went from being severely overrated to extremely underrated. He will box Broners ears off.

      Khan looked average in his last 2 fights & yes Broner got his ass handed to him by Maidana but he's still a better fighter then Julio Diaz.

      Broner by SD.
      Even though Khan starts off blazing fast, any fighter with decent speed and/or defense can handle Khan's speed after the first four or five rounds once he slows a little and opens up. Would be a good match up and could get ko'd again coming in reckless to a guy who's desperately looking to redeem himself on his "big bro's" card after his first professional loss. Broner by late stoppage or a Khan decision in a close fight.

        I first thought of this fight, and thought that Khan would be ahead on the cards and then caught and stopped, but now I don't think Broner can stop him.

        He can catch and wobble him ( Maybe even drop him ), but now comes the problem - Broner does not have the footwork to suddenly jump on Khan and apply effective pressure as Khan is doing the 'Bambi Legs'.

        Broner has atrocious Footwork. Absolutely dreadful.

        Khan UD.

          Khan is by far the better boxer of the two and should beat him with ease, but he has absolutely no chin. I reckon Broner KO's him.

            The only time he hurt Maidana was when he sucker punched him well after the bell at the end of round 11.

            Anyway, if Khan can handle Broner's power, he'll win a convincing UD

                I cant get the picture of khan being dropped and repeatedly rocked by Diaz out of my head.

                But if he comes out and fights the same fight he fought against say judah and broner is still content on that wide stance and throwing like 5 punchers per round i gotta roll with khan.

                  I wonder if Khan could actually drop Broner at some point? He's gonna be popping off quick combos from the outside but not sure if he could land something on Broner's chin that could hurt him. That'd be crazy if it happened.

                      If Khan can keep his mind clear and fight intelligently, picking his shots, using lateral movement and speed, he gets a UD. If he gets drawn into a toe to toe war, he get KTFO!
