    khan looks like he is filling out into 47 real well. and most importantly he is confident and feels good about making that weight class. if lucas cant knock him out i think khan wins an easy decision

      Matthysse cleans his clock.

      Khan wouldn't make it past the 5th.

          Lucas doesn't even look big at 140. Khan fills out because of his frame and height.

          I think Khan destroys Lucas at 140, and I don't think Lucas would be very successful at 147. Without his power, he doesn't really have much to beat the top fighters. And he would not land much on Khan anyway. Lucas ain't an inside fighter. From where Lucas throws his punches, Khan is dominante.
          Collazo and Julio Diaz hurt Khan so your not making any sense.

            Khan outspeeds and outlands the slower and mechanical Mattyhsse to an easy decision.

            Glass jaw or not.

              It all depends which Khan shows up. If the gladiator khan appears then Matthysse would win it by brutal KO fashion. However, if the scientific boxer Khan shows up then he easily wins it going away by a lopsided UD.

                Wouldn't have to be granite, I think he gets hit less now he is with hunter. Just a chin good enough to take the counter left hooks he gets caught with too often like against Julio Diaz/Garcia and the uppercuts on the inside that he get hit with.

                He has the jab, movement, skills and workrate to give anyone a incredibly tough fight he just lacks the chin to make up for his lapses in defence. Also I don't remember Collazo hurting Khan apart from the Low blow.

                    And overhand rights, guess we'll have to wait until he faces another pressure fighter.

                      Tough to say. Khan can easily out box hi, but Lucas can easily ko him. I'd lean towards khan
