    Is Amir Khan the new Wladimir Klitchko?

    Hunter has done a terrific job.

    Terrific job of turning Khan into a dirty fighter. Punch punch lean, punch punch tie up. Rinse and repeat.

      loooool he looked like the same khan 2bh just collazo was fighting like a ******. Khans defense was on point but wen he got hit he looked like the same khan dropping his hands. But those body shots were vicious.

          Hilarious that the hate is so strong for Khan.

          He fought an amazingly composed and tactical fight against a strong veteran coming off the best win of his career. His performance was only like Klitschko's in the fact that he held when Collazo got close, which is completely understandable considering his chin. This wasn't a defensive performance by any means however, Khan was landing hard right hands in every round, beautiful combo's, and knocked down Collazo three times, one with an excellently timed right hand, and two more with vicious bodyshots. This was an A* performance - only haters can say otherwise, probably because they bet on Khan to lose by KO! Enjoyable fight and the best on the card by some distance.

            I actually thought Khan fought really well, previously Khan was hopeless fighting off the back foot. He was way better at it last night.

              Props to Khan for securing the win and getting his career back on track, but let's be real : Collazo has never been and will never be an elite guy. He did fairly well against a crude brawler in Hatton way back when, but his KO of Ortiz really overhyped him. I'd pick my mailman to KO Victor these days.

              That said, Khan's constant holding and pushing is definitely over the top. I can't understand how he doesn't lose more points for it than he already does.

                  It was an absolute white wash Khan schooled him!

                  I think I had it 118-104 at the end of the fight, only scored one round for Collazo I think and even at that it was me being extremely generous, the dude just got his ass beat up.

                  Also It was nice to see Khan was capable of dropping Collazo.

                    Exactly what Khan needs to do.

                    Other fighters have made careers out of doing it, Khan needs to be doing it with the chin he's got.

                    Serial haters like your good self will hate on him either way, so rather he gets hated on for holding and winning that trying to go toe to toe on jelly legs and getting knocked out.
