      Khan is bit of a hit and miss with his fights, he can be either very exciting and fun to watch or the total opposite

      His speed is always fascinating to watch, his fast combos are fun and he is pretty good overall, hindered by his chin a bit

      But then at some fights he just keeps clinching all the time for some reason and backs away without throwing too many punches.

      I think a potential fight with Pacman could be very, very exciting. But you can never know with Khan

        When Kahn was a fighter, yea. But, he's not any more. He goes between pushing, headlocking, and pitty pat punches to catch the judges attention. The Khan that fought Maidana was an interesting guy to watch. This version is just awful.

          Everyone has off-nights man. Look at Floyd vs Maidana or Castillo etc.. He looked terrible in those fights. Against Castillo he had an injured hand excuse but in the two Maidana fights he was just showing signs of ageing against a faded Maidana (who had already been in a lot wars and now retired after fighting Floyd because he had already lost passion for the sport years ago).

          Now look at Khan vs Alexander, Collazo, Malignaggi, PRIME Maidana - that was Khan on point and on form. Imagine that Khan against the Mayweather who fought Maidana or Castillo. Khan wins every time.

          Sure, if Khan isn't on form then a fading Floyd could beat him in a close fight but if he's on point I can't see Floyd winning more than 3 or 4 rounds.

            Khan is going to be begging for scraps again next year.

            One fight a year from Khan is pretty poor, especially as he looked terrible in that one fight against Algieri.

            I predict Khan VS Paulie Malignaggi II next year...

            A super-fight for Paulie's European WW Strap lol.

            Held at the Bolton Mecca Bingo hall, Eddie Hearn ironing out the PPV.
