:yep Virgil trying to make him keep hisr right up so he doesnt get hit with left hook but Khan can not menage to do that at all, all his terrible habits get back after 30 seconds of every round.
Wlad is arguably the hardest puncher in the sport. He has a big right hand, a thudding jab, and a big left hook. There's a big price to pay for trying to get inside on him. Khan is not a powerful puncher. His hand speed, running, and pushing are how he keeps people off of him. It will difficult for him to be like Wlad.
That's the single biggest factor Wlad fans pretend didn't exist. Let's see Wlad's 'high ring iq' and 'manny steward' give him the ****ing ressurection fighting Bowe,Lewis.Holyfield, Tyson.. lmfao. his ressurection would have him flat on his back dead... Wlad won't have ressucted ****.. if it wasn't for the ressurctiong happening in this era.
Mate, cmon... Wlad has exceptional power, great size, and knows how to play to his strengths. He's made adjustments that I don't think Khan has the ability to. Khan seems to lack the skills to make up for his below average chin.
Wlad is also fighting in the worst division out there. He basically has every advantage over every opponent.
Rios is more like Gatti than Khans is. Don't forget Gatti had a great chin and was able to withstand huge amounts of punishment while standing toe to toe. Plus he didn't run his mouth like Khan does saying he's gods gift to boxing.
No, unfortunetly not. Different personalities and heavies peak a bit later. Khan actually looks like he's going down hill now.
I can vividly remember before the Michael Gomez fight where he was saying nobody would be able to beat him once he reaches his peak and I remember him saying before the Breidis Presscott fight that he would beat Manny Pacquiao.
Look Khan got lucky against Julio Diaz last night. If Khan had of had a less favourable referee he would have probably lost last night against a guy who has already been stopped 5 x it's as simple as that. Khan probably would have battered Diaz a few years ago too. Get real.
