    khan got glass chin. he aint gonna be a top fighter. deal with it. solid chin like money can get hit with many lucky punches as you say, recuperate, and ****in fight back.

    khan gets hit flush, he dances around funny :lol:

    Everyone knows what he meant, and he is right, your boy is so flawed that he made a good fighter with mediocre power look like Mike Tyson.

    :patsch Are you serious? Garcia couldn't miss in the 4th, at 1 point he landed about 10 straight HUGE punches, Khan knew what was coming he simply doesn't have the skill to avoid getting hit.

    I'm supposed to believe those BULL **** numbers After HBO shamelessly cheerleaded with "bang bang" Lampley dropping this in the 4th round "I thought this fight was over, now khan has taken control" :rofl:nut

    The 30 plus big shots that Garcia landed in the 4th round were AFTER he was nearly KOed at the end of the 3rd round. He was still badly hurt, he should have held on to Garcia but he decided to trade.

    Khan was never elite for sure but he did beat some very good opponents in Kotelnik, Malginaggi, Maidana, Judah and arguably a juiced up PEDerson.

    they say great amateur's are not always great pros. but to me if you were a beast in the amateur's then you are going to be beast in the pros. but some guys were ok in the amateur's but were better at pros. but i still think fighters with great amateur backgrounds are good fighters at the end of the day.

    He had a full minute to recover and the ref bailed him out by counting that early KD in the 4th when he was running from Garcia, Kirkland against Angulo actually moved his head when he got up and made Angulo miss the vast majority of his shots, Khan stands up stiff he doesn't move his head at all, if he hooked up with the right guy he could be pretty good, he definitely needs to change.

    Yeah, so many Great Amateurs have excelled at the pro game you'd think the way people denigrate the amateurs like it wasn't boxing, and equivalent to skipping or something.

    Do you mean Richardson? That would be a great matchup. He's obviously very defense-oriented, but not at the expense of an explosive and varied offense. (unlike Steward.)

    If khan had been taught right coming up, he would really be elite today, the athleticism to be great is definitely there.
