Similar to Khan-Maidana. Khan will win the early rounds, get hurt some point in the fight but will survive and outbox lucas the rest of the fight.
Who would win in a Amir Khan-Lucas Matthyse fight?

I didn't really think he was hurt? When Khan is hurt he gets jelly legs everytime. He is one of the worst fighters at disguising when he is hurt. Was an overhand left as well, didn't think anything of the Collazo clip, which is beside the point because we know Matthysee can hurt Khan.
I don't think Khan is overly susceptible to straight punches, whenever he has been hurt then have been looping round his guards because he holds his gloves so tight to his face. Maidana throws the right hand high and around the guard which is what caught him. I would love to see whether Hunter has taught anything to Khan to deal with pressure fighters, he seemed a bit better on the inside against Devon (though it could be because Devon has a worse inside game than Khan) and was smarter about jumping in and out.Comment

he was definitely hurt. he's learned to compose himself a little better than he has before though.I didn't really think he was hurt? When Khan is hurt he gets jelly legs everytime.

Khan takes Matthyse at 147. I like both fighters but Khan is strong at this weight and I think he outboxes him and ould possibly catch him. I dont kow if Matthyse's power carries the same at 147.
I like both fighters, but i think Khan outboxes and frustrates himComment
