Khan vs Cuenca

Seems like the perfect comeback fight, has a Mayweather esque record and seemingly couldn't knock out a wank.

What do we think?

He actually is!

Seriously though, he is. He's got a good record on paper.

It will be someone like this.

Going forward khans chin will be protected unless absolutely necessary that he fight a banger

Cuenca obviously lacks Khan's power, and his hands aren't as fast - but he has quicker, nimbler, more educated feet as well as a more accurate jab (right jab in his case) and higher ring IQ. Believe it or not he works the body much better than Amir.

Pretty low risk/reward tbh, unless Khan knocks him out (unlikely).

Merely outpointing him - which Khan with his reputation, starpower and judge-friendlier style would do anywhere outside Buenos Aires - would accomplish little to promote his brand and he'd be made to look really bad in the process, guaranteed.
