    Amir Khan At 147

    Now that Amir Khan is moving back to 147 how will he do against the top guys in the division?

      He'll only get wins if hes matched up perfectly against lowerr class soft punchers. All top guys KO him.

        I think he might beat some of the guys that can't punch or don't have much hand speed to nail him flush. I think he might beat Bradley and be about even with Garcia and Broner. I think Pacquiao, Thurman, Porter, Brook and Spence would all probably hurt him and then finish him.

          He loses to most in the top 10. The biggest payday for him at 147 right now is probably Brook. He should take it, get KTFO one last time in Wembley and call it a career.

            I reckon he can beat DG in a rematch, beat Bradley, beat Broner but loses to Brook, Pacquiao, Mayweather and Porter.

            I think only 2 of those fights ever happen though lol

              If he can improve even further from his Canelo performance before he got KO'd he'll be very hard to beat. The WW aren't going to be 180lbs on the night so Khan should be ok.

                Garcia would brutally KO him again.

                  More or less how I see things going for Khan.

                  I'd be shocked if he can get by guys with some pop like Thurman or Spence. I think Brook is a 50/50ish fight. I think Porter will Lamont Peterson him except by a wider margin or a mid to late stoppage. Broner might be 50/50ish or 55/45 Broner. I don't see much going differently in a Garcia rematch except maybe a later stoppage cuz Garcia's timing will beat Khan's speed more often then not. I could see him beating a Ortiz or Berto, but I don't exactly love his chances there either tbqh.

                  If I was on Khan's team I'd throw him into a Josesito Lopez fight (if he's not retired) or some name-ish guy on that sorta level next.

                    lololololol

                    I saw the same Khan with speed but is chin wide open for a counter shot. Anybody with KO power will fold him. Lets see Garcia put him on his @ss again
