It's no big deal for Amir to adjust his style. Nobody said anything about a lifelong southpaw who never switched stances before to switch stance at age 35 and become a new fighter. We're talking about Khan not sticking his chin out and keeping his guard up, that's not some revolutionary **** you have to work on for 10 years until the fighter has it down. That **** can be done by his next fight.
    Yeah, the same problem he's had from day one. You think world class coaches haven't tried to do something about it? You really think you're some special snowflake and the only one that's noticed it? If it were so simple to change, he'd have changed by now.

        He should look to cash out first. But yea, the end is near for him.

          Khan had one KO loss in his entire career, he was one of the top dogs in boxing before that Canelo loss. What he did obviously worked for him, what the **** do you want him to do? And one more time, this isn't some revolutionary **** he needs to change. We're talking about him not sticking his chin out and keeping his hands up. That **** can be fixed overnight, he just has to be serious about it. He's doing that **** on purpose to bait guys, to counter. That **** won't fly against guys like Canelo, Floyd & company.

            Mixed opinion.

            On one hand the dude is young and seems to be able to recover from the KOs fairly quick, somehow.

            On the other...Roy Jones has him beat in terms of times knocked out, and Jones was making me cringe during the interviews, forgetting Maidana, barely getting out coherent sentences, etc. So maybe.

            Uh, what?

            Prescott
            Garcia
            Canelo

            Where are you getting "one KO loss"?

              Ummm...he had two stoppage losses prior to this fight, and has been dropped on several occasions by non-punchers due to the same fundamental flaws. He also wasn't one of the "top dogs" in boxing. Not in this reality anyway.

              Loooooool @ the notion that he fights the way he does to bait guys. Good joke.

                No. He will retire when he gets a brutal KO in 147 division.
