He's improved. Last fight everyone cried how Virgil ruined khan. Floyd still beats him easily
I'm not fooled by Amir Khan!!

Khan doesn't deserve a shot against Mayweather. But his left over Maidana does. Hype jobs like Ortiz and Guerrero do after beating a ****ty Berto. Yeah OK.Comment

Devon Alexander is world class?
Devon that got two laughable gifts against Kotelnik and Matthysse? Same guy that Bradley made quit (agghhh it burns!)? Same guy that the mindless bull rusher Porter whooped on?Comment

Amir has imlroved. But you make a solid point. Lefties tend to wanna fight a super clean technical fight vs righties. So outworking them or volume punching ,quick feet beat that.
Sometimes its the other way around.
khan can give floyd issues based off floyd not having one ounch power or game changing power . He has timing vs 1 and 2 ounxh combo fighters coming inside . slow feet.
Khan brings fast feet range fast hands punch selection and outside volume style benefits him vs floydComment

He could have gotten KO'ed against Collazo, but he didn't, he dominated. It was a dangerous fight because of what Collazo did to Ortiz, and because he is upset minded as seen vs Hatton and Berto as well. Khan could have let Alexander spoil the fight, but he dominated him. That's what I look at, what could have happened, but Amir Khan didn't let it happen. Also, yeah he struggled against Maidana, who doesn't? Mayweather, Broner, Ortiz all had a tough time with Maidana as well, I don't knock Khan for that. Broner and Ortiz had more than just a tough time with Maidana. Mayweather fought him 24 rounds. Khan also beat Kotelnyk and Malignaggi two pretty good orthodox fighters. I also had Khan edging Peterson.
With that said, I do not want to see Mayweather vs Khan next. I prefer Khan build up a solid WW resume first. Guerrero next could be a nice fight and a much better addition to his resume than just Alexander. He'd also have a much stronger backing of fans for him to fight Floyd.Comment

Khan is what he is.
A good fighter, ridiculous speed and athletically with a a lot of holes in his game
If you can punch and you hit him on the chin he will go over.
If you're a boxer and aren't a hard puncher he's going to be a tough fight.
That's why I think he troubles Mayweather.Comment

well ya there was for sure some rust at the beginning but virgil and roach are so different that was expected honestly leaving roach was best thing khan ever did after watching him tonight. ya alexander is kind of taylor for khan but thats not khans problem and besides he beats almost anyone at 147 tonightComment
