        Has he fought an elite boxer?

            PEDerson? Shouldn´t count because he was juicing. But i agree, he needs better inside work to beat the best.

              That's due to his speed, not his skills.

                It is all about levels.

                Put Khan back at European Level and he would look awesome. He wouldn't be getting caught between his own punches as regularly as he has been recently.

                At the highest level of the sport his hand speed is his biggest weapon. I like Khan but I will put real money on him getting stopped by a fully fledged world-level veteran welter like Collazo.

                Khan's punches seem to lack a little bit of mustard especially in the last two outings. His confidence has taken a mauling. If he can't put a dent in Collazo it is going to be a painful night.

                  Maidana as one, Paulie on the shelf just below. The Zab fight was impressive, but Zab was not eliet at that point.

                    nah man, if he had not had skills paulie would've beat him. He showed skills, and he was ebating Garcia until he ****ed up.

                      Khan gets away with a lot due to his hand speed but let's be honest even though his biscuit chin as failed him many times. He doesn't lack skills. He brags about his power and tbh I think it's average. And he has no inside game which is why I thought Bradley would beat him down like he did to Alexander. But his footwork,speed, jab, combinations, heart. Has got him through alot. I honestly think floyd would have a harder time with khan than maidana but it is what it is.
