Still not convinced Khan is back to his best, he executed a good game plan but I think Collazo was slightly over hyped because he KO'd that idiot Ortiz. He will struggle to hold off the big world class welter-weights, not enough power & doesn't fight well on the inside.Comment

Khan was better off with Roach. This Khan seems confused if he should wait or throw punches.. I don't think Khan will be able to become a champion at WW considering the competition.. I feel sorry for Collazo. The ref let Khan go with a lot of dirty tactics, a lot of holding and headlocks... When Khan droped Collazo twice in the later rounds, Collazo seemed absolutely helpless with the ref.. I think the best option for Khan is to take a Mayweather opportunity (which he doesn't deserve obviously) and retire !! even tough I don't see this Khan wining more then 4 rounds against Mayweather.. The previous aggressive and reckless version of Khan was wayyy better under Roach..Comment

Any other top WW destroys Khan, even Maidana would destroy if they are ever to meet again....Khan was better off with Roach. This Khan seems confused if he should wait or throw punches..

caught about the last half of the fight. it was a good performance from khan. i think he's probably set himself up for the mayweather fight with this one, but i'm not sure he'll get it since it'll be in September. if he can stay busy for a year, whilst looking good, i don't think anyone can complain if he got the fight next year.Comment
