Khan is arguably the best three-round welterweight fighter to put on gloves. His handspeed and generally speed would give any welterweight fighter fits for three rounds.
Khan's problem is that his game has never evolved from that; no different than in baseball after seeing a 100 mile an hour fastball, it becomes easier to hit if it doesn't do anything different.
Once you see the speed for a bit, it becomes easier to simply ignore the speed and capitalize on the habits and the mistakes.
Khan lingers too long, leaving himself open to getting crushed on a well-timed counter.
Broner doesn't have monster welterweight power, but Khan doesn't really have a great chin
