    I was extremely impressed by him. I'd put down a roll over bet broner, kahn, mayweather to win (even money - which I though was great odds) and was thinking the kahn fight was the one i'd be biting my nails through. he ending up putting in an awesome performance and it ended up being mayweather giving me fits lol.

    Kahn looked damn good. he'll really be trying to land floyd now.

      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.
      That right hand for the first KD was beautiful and Khan didn't even turn into the punch, good to see he has some pop at 147.

      But I fully understand the comparsion with Wlad, punch, punch, grab, push, rinse and repeat but Khan showed good movement and some solid combinations.

          Lol at the op hate.

          No matter what ,the hate still comes in.

          Khan executed a great plan yday, and dominated collazo like never before. Regardless, his style and performance was as always exciting and he was just as active in this fight. I believe if he continues in this way he may well be dominant at 147.

          You seem to be forgetting the fact Collazo constantly came with his head low, and was also throwing low blows all night , okay in retaliation to some of khans habits. But we know it does not get more dirty than a punch below the belt. I hope you are aware of Mayweather and his famous elbow. All well taught boxers have tactics and remember its a fight, it will get messy.

              I was thinking the same thing

              Is it that he just can't fight on the inside or that he's too scared to?

              Anyway this Khan is elite

              Remember Wlad-Povetikin?

              Wlad held more often than he landed punches

              0 points taken

              Just depends on the ref, some see it as a legitimate part of the game

              Floyd didn't get any warning or get called out by the commentators for holding to get out of the corner/against the ropes

                Disagree

                Even in the 12th round you know one punch can change it all for a guy like Khan

                and the drama with the low blows and holding kept thing interesting too

                  Awwww so this is what the haters are clinging to? So sweet.

                  Punching someone in the balls is cool beans though.

                      I hope he sticks to this style, first time i've ever seen Khan comfortable not coming forward. More measured in his style.

                      Hell there was a point where he threw two lead right hands in a row, he never would have been comfortable doing that a few years ago off the ropes.
