    you're right. khan might be a delusional, loudmouthed diva outside the ring but once you get him inside, he has the heart of a true warrior. he fought to the bitter end against gift garcia, didn't quit after maidana smashed him to bits for a whole round, and showed tremendous grit vs julio diaz. difficult to deny him that.

        Nobody has more heart than Khan. He literally does not know how to quit.

            might as well have used Ortiz for all the examples.

              Kahn does nothing but btch and complain. That's not the attitude of a "lion". The clinching, pushing, and other fouls are pretty cheap as well. I used to be a fan of the guy but at a certain point couldn't tolerate how cheap his fighting style got and how much he complains.
              I have more respect for a guy who knows when to retreat while on the still than one who runs in the ring.
              Pushing?

              Dont be a ******.

                OP that's a terrible argument for Khan being able to win. By that logic, Gatti would have beat Mayweather.

                  Mayweather had a height and reach advantage and most important of all... speed. So I don't know what youre talking about.

                    Khan has the heart of a lion but legs like Bambi.

                      Instincts, adjustments, ring IQ; these are the things that count way more than speed and length. Khan is far behind Floyd in these categories.
