Amir Khan vs Juan Manuel Marquez --- Who W?

[uncle_ray]

A master class surgeon like Marquez folds Khan early. If Danny Garcia put away Khan, Juan Manuel no problem

[Divine Hammer]

marquez KOs khan. no way khan outboxes marquez and no way his chin takes marquez's power.

khan throws in bunches thus providing perfect counter punching opportunities.

You see the last part of the Collazo fight where Khan was covering up and back peddling, with Collazo relatively free to throw punches at his guard? Also see the Peterson fight.

Thats a horrible idea against a master technician with power. Marquez can do a number of things to create an opening. With Khan i imagine he would wait for him to be in mid-range, draw a punch with feints and head movement and then counter hard (see Garcia fight for Khans vulnerability to this). Marquez is one of the best ever at doing this. He even did it to ultra-defensive Mayweather a few times.

If this continued to the point where Khans offense was neutralized (and lets be honest, he doesnt make adjustments on the fly very well) itd be all over.

Chin doesnt matter, Marquez battered Manny when he did the same thing, but Manny is a better fighter than Khan.

Marquez would ruin Khans body when he does shell up, then knock him out late.

I think Khan would look good at times though. Early he would have success jabbing and circling out like he did against Paulie, but he would never look like he was in control of the fight.

Khan would make JMM drop 5 times and win by UD

JMM is a small guy and has been matched with guys fairly small in height and reach

Bradley showed him movement is what he doesnt like

Khan UD

Marquez doesn't have the speed to keep up with Khan, no way.

[ChickenTikka]

Either Marquez ends up getting the KO at some point or Khan will make him look silly for 12 rounds. Bank on it. Marquez quality counter punching will not work here at all. He will be confused and won't handle the speed as well as people think

[F!x]

It depends if Marquez could catch Khan. Marquez would probably be forced to take the lead against a guy like Khan. Khan would probably try to box Marquez at a distance. But eventually, the predictable 1-2 combinations from Khan would get timed. Khan is nowhere near as skilled as Bradley. Given Khan's style, I think Khan may get off to an early lead. But eventually, Marquez hits Khan with something big and that's it.

That's debatable. Bradley was another guy who avoided Khan a few years ago because he said himself that the fight was too risky. And it seems now that Khan is back to the same sort of form and strength as around that time period with weight-draining no longer an issue, reckless aggression a thing of the past, a much better defense and improving inside game. And Marquez arguably beat Bradley too, although he lost a razor-close SD on the official cards. So that's two guys who avoided Khan and when facing each other it was really a toss up as to who won.

Khan doesn't win fantasy fights, his chin is made of glass.

[gabrielmolilulu]

Very difficult style for Marquez. Khan is faster and has more reach.
I choose Khan via UD, unless he gets touch in his chin.

[Redd Foxx]

Khan is faster, but he doesn't have the level of diversity in his attacks that Bradley used against Marquez. Juan would time him, just like Garcia did, and it's the muppet dance all over again.
