Comments Thread For: Khan Confident: Whatever Crawford Brings, I'll Have The Answer

Trying to comfort himself with words. Bud will comatose his ass.

What if he brings an overhand right to your jaw?

Reality will make Khan cautious. He might go late if Tarance works him hard enough.

Crawford is a tricky shifty fella with great timing.. Khan is a fast fighter.. I'm buying this one.. could be a fight of the year!

I'm looking forward to it as well. Khan always comes to fight and not just to collect a check like other fighters.

All it takes is one counter right from crawford. I'm not sold on crawford as an elite welter yet but that vargas fight has shown me khans chin has actually got even worse, any half decent shot on has him wobbling. If i remember there was one really quite innocuous looking shot vargas landed which rocked khan, the type of shot u wouldnt even consider a pro boxer being stunned by. His chin is about as sturdy as a poppadom.

Khan says this now but after he gets whooped, he'll have some lame excuse as to why. When Prescott ko'd him, he said he was killing himself to make 135. When Garcia ko'd him, he said it was a lucky punch and blamed roach for not teaching him defense. Vs Canelo, he said Canelo weighed 238 pounds on fight night. Wonder what's next.

In all fairness, 135 was too small, Garcia did catch him with a lucky punch and Canelo was huge. In each fight he was doing well and then stood in the pocket too long and got dropped.

Since when has this guy EVER ADJUSTED To adversity? Even in a fight where I thought he was impressive (Maidana fight). He won with ENDURANCE & his regular speedy self.
All he is capable of is going fast till he gets tired. End of story.
He's getting delusional in his old age.

sounds like excuses to me. Prescott would've ko'd khan even if the fight wasn't at 135, mainly because he's a big puncher and khans defense sucks. Garcia was timing khan accurately for a while leading up the ko. The left hook is his signature punch and khan got caught in an exchange m because again, his defense sucks. Yeah, Canelo was much bigger but he didn't utilize size to wear khan down. He used a boxing technique which was to feint low and then come over the top with a booming right hand. He was able to this because, well, khans defense sucks.

He comes to fight fast, then he folds. No ring generalship. No intelligence, no angles, no fainting & distance control.

Better than paying to watch someone who showed up to not even fight at all. Anyone who bought the Broner vs Pac or Spence vs Garcia ppvs knows what I'm talking about.
