Comments Thread For: J. Mayweather: Khan's Chin is China, Pacquiao Would've KO'd Him

[Combat Talk Radio]

I still think it's not Khan's chin that's in question but his neck.

Prescott's shot landed squarely on the side of the neck, and Khan went stiff.

Maidana never got that close, and Khan weathered that fight surprisingly well.

Garcia's shots caused Khan's neck to go scary at points.

Algieri had range and used it with effective aggression, Khan wasn't able to avoid getting hit as well against a rangy fighter. I don't think they trained for that Algieri; they trained for the one that faced Provodnikov - a big mistake.

Khan's effective enough at counterpunching that I feel the fight would have gone largely identical to MayPac with the exception of greater punch output.

Where is Amir Khan? Khan should be trying his best to get a fight with Broner before Broner signs to fight Ashley Theophane. In fact, the same can be said of Broner! "PBC presents Khan vs. Broner live on Spike TV" Make it happen!

Only Red Coat fan boys in the UK think Khan is anything special...

Fan boys and people who worship athletes are the ones who hype up these mismatches...

Floyd and Manny would both dominate Khan...Khan is a slightly above average fighter who is limited in the styles he can beat...

Anyone with a decent punch and boxing skills will always give him trouble..

Khan was running and clinching in that Maidana fight...Maidana at 147 with Roberto Garcia..would have killed Khan...

Judahs stanky leg was bad but for me Khan against Danny Garcia was worse with his arms wide open flailing around khan looked like a scarecrow getting taken away in a tornado. Its almost understandable why Khan barely fights these days, and when he does its against tailor made competition.

That's the fight I want to see. Either one could win, but I give Khan the edge. Khan won't give him time to setup. Broner would have to be aggressive and know that if he connects, its lights out. My fear is that if Khan wins, he will then feel as if he would of best Mayweather in a fight.

If Khan wins, especially in good fashion, then it makes Khan vs. Brook a PPV success.

And Broner wasn't? Didn't seem to stop Maidana from manhandling him and getting the W. That's an excuse.

Khan was actually TRYING, Broner wasn't. At least give Khan that much. I'm just saying, I don't buy the glass jaw theory, I think it depends on where and how Khan gets tagged that makes the difference. Khan WAS taking shots against a big puncher in Maidana and took them well. Someone with a glass jaw (i.e. Paulie Malignaggi) wouldn't fare as well.

How else do you explain Khan getting rocked and rolled by Danny Garcia, a guy not known as a knockout fighter?

Khan shud just retire with that tail between his legs...we all know the WW division isnt a place for him if a light tapping JWW had him in on the run

Shame we'll never likely find out, it would've been a good fight with fireworks.
Arum is a greedy old fart just like any legal monopoly business it's about more and more with spending as little as possible.
Pacquiao vs Khan would've happened if Amir was signed to TR since it's in house and would sell more than Pacquiao vs Bradley 3.
