    Khan's speed will help find that straight right down the pipe, which is the key against Southpaws and has always helped him in the past against lefties.

      Isn't this interview from last week's press conference?

      Do BoxingScene even try to hide the fact that they post old Khan quotes every week?

        Are you okay with steroid use in sports especially in a life threatning sport like boxing? I mean I get it you don't like Khan, your opinion and you're entitled to it, but really dude? Steroid?
        When's the last time he shined against a good opponent?

        Probably Judah is he counts. If not, then Maidana.

          So, now Collazo is not a good opponent?

            I was more disappointed in Collapse than I was impressed by Khan to be honest.

            I think most people felt the same way.

            Collazo turned up for a payday not a fight.

              I am not here to argue the finer points of steroid abuse.

              I am just stating the simple fact that Khan has 3 loses on his record.

              Just like Cotto lost to Margarito, Khan lost to Peterson.

              It may not be fair, but life seldom is.

                Of course Collazo is not a good opponent.

                The guy was soundly beaten a few years ago by Freddy Hernandez for crying out loud.

                  Khan was against a good opponent and made him look ordinary to a point he purposely dropped his hand and baited Amir to jump in because he just had no answer.

                  Collazo has been held back due to contractual issues and was desperate to be in these type of events, so he is the last person to not turn up to fight.

                  Also you can just say that about any fight where an opponent gets dominated so badly. Froch-Bute, Maidana-Alexander or even Calzaghe-Lacy.

                    That was a bad loss to a horrible opponent, but Khan was also sparked out by Prescott, so is he now not a good fighter either? Losses happen and no where did I imply Collazo is Elite.

                    Also anything to say about his fights against Berto and Hatton?

                      correct. both Khan and Alexander are only "borderline" top 10 147lbs. more importantly, NEITHER of them deserves a fight with Mayweather off the back of beating each other imo.
                      Winner of Alexander-Khan should fight Brook next Spring for his title, then get a shot at Mayweather for 147lb unification in Floyds last fight on Showtime contract.
