    fought at world level against who?who did he beat? paulie is fast but also very predictable and thats why he fails against the Elite fighters.i like Paulie but im going to speak facts..Khan looked good and was comfortable because he didnt have to worry about anything coming back..soon as he feels power he panics and you can see it

    Khan does have speed but what he lacks is ring IQ, power inside fighting ability footwork and a chin. PBF would stop Khan in 7 rounds or less.

    Apparently his legs are gone,he's slurring his speach and somebody gave him a black eye in sparring.

    He must be there for the taking lol

    Your miss interpreting what I'm saying here man,You think im sticking up for Khan or trying to say Malignaggi was some big dangerous power puncher I'm not.What I am saying is that Malignaggi is quick and elusive and Khan used his speed well that night by utilizing the jab which he has stopped doing for some reason and he was way more accurate than we have seen him in any of his recent fights.Why are you questioning me about Malignaggis record go look at boxrec and stop being a smart arse,he's a two division world champion and his win against Senchenko in the Ukraine is nothing to turn your nose up at.Hes also been in wars with a prime beast in Miguel Cotto and beaten Juan Diaz twice.Its quite easy to sit behind a computer screen and discredit fighters,how about you try getting punched in the face for a living.

    Most definitely. I saw the Judah fight - he's known for his speed but he didn't do enough to win a lot of rounds. He had his moments but I gave him 3 or 4 rounds at most.

    Like you said, "talk boxing". I don't want to hear any of your 'keyboard warrior' bull**** either.

    true i gave him 3-4 rounds..the 1st 3-4 rounds..but floyd is a mastermind in the ring and once he figures you out it is game over now what can Manny or Khan do differently??both have speed but both are also one dimensional,have no plane b or c..

    Yep, I gave him the very same rounds too but what gameplan should the, let's say, 'perfect opponent' abide by to beat Floyd on points at least? You have to face it, it's a puzzle when you're in the ring the guy.

    Khan doesn't deserve a shot at Floyd. Yeah he's fast but that didn't stop Diaz and Garcia being able to time him with counters as he came in. If those guys could do it, Floyd will have no problem landing and landing often.

    Khan has great physical tools but his style is all wrong for his attributes and in terms of ring intelligence and generalship, compared to Mayweather it's like the villiage idiot verses Steven Hawking. Mismatch.

    He does. Too bad he doesn't have the technique, ring IQ, ability to adjust, etc.

    Having, at best, intermediate power and a shaky chin doesn't help either.

    he might have the speed but he definitely doesn't have a remotely close ring iq or defense abilities to beat floyd HAHA

    Khan needs more than speed and Floyd has enough power to shatter his chinny chin, chin.

    Bull****. Khan has never been faster than MT.

    As for handspeed, so ****ing what?

    Was he faster than Garcia and Prescott? Yes, and what happened? Was he faster than Diaz and Maidana? Yes, and yet he was hanging on for dear life in the later rounds of both fights.

    When will you clowns realize that fast hands are no substitute for a porous defense and a shaky beard.

    Surprisingly Malinaggi, despite having fast hands and good athletic ability, has never been exceptionally difficult to hit.
