    I think Provodnikov landed his power shots better, so he is more dangerous for Khan.

      Porter. His footspeed is underrated and would prevent Khan from staying away from him. His workrate would be enough to steal rounds and we've seen Khan struggle with pressure guys before. Porter is also far stronger physically than Provodnikov.

      Also, if Algieri and Lucas are outboxing Provo with ease, you can beat Khan will.

        Provo, simply because he hits harder but his lack of world class stamina may hurt him in the fight.

        Porter, overall, is a better fighter but doesn't hit as hard.

          Porter because he cuts distance better, also tougher to hold on the inside as he's bigger.

          Not to write Ruslan off though, he has a good puncher's chance of winning.

            I think Porter.

            Khan has decent foot speed and a big reach advantage over Provo soi can see him staying on the outside for long periods in the fight. Provo could well get to him late in the fight like Maidana did though.

            Porter has quicker footspeed, is physically bigger and is extremely rough on the inside, which is a nightmare for Khan (though he is more comfortable there than he used to be).

              Anyone who can crack an egg shell. Porter's overrated but Prodnikov would win by KO.

                Ruslan because he hits harder...extremely harder

                and has a better chin

                a guy with a solid chin, and hits hard has the abilty to walk Khan down

                Porter struggles to get his power shots off, everything Ruslan throws has power on it

                  Porter would rough him up.

                  Khan would probably look great against Ruslan of course with the threat that Ruslan could send him to the moon at any moment.

                    Ruslan has been out boxed a couple of times and Porter is the naturally bigger man. I'll go with porter.
