    You're delusion Darni, you really do believe that Khan's chin, which has always been dodgy is going to be any better at Welter.

    There is nothing wrong with Khan's chin, but his last fight it looked wrong, Khan has outgrown 140 now.

    I think people brains have problems its been high lighted Khan at 135 was getting KD by light hitters, he moves to 140 in his 10 fights at the weight he only lost one fight via TKO on his feet vs a puncher Garcia.

    Note over the weekend Peterson got stopped vs Lucas, does he have a glass chin also, or is getting KO part of boxing?

    Khan barely had the speed to trouble Julio Diaz

    guerreros rough house tactics were supposed to trouble floyd

    from what i remember it was roger mayweather who first said khans speed would trouble floyd, its all bollox its the money team fooling everyone into thinking this, khan would not last 2 rds with mayweather, not the khan we have seen lately

    Speed isn't that important in a fight at the elite level with a guy like Floyd when its brainless, contrived speed. Khan doesn't even know what he's trying to do as he throws a combination, it just comes out. He throws anything, as long as its fast, there isn't a sense of trying to pick apart his opponent or find the gaps.

    This is why Garcia was troubled for all of 2 rounds by the raw speed and then started getting closer and closer with the left-hook, he began to get a sense Khan is just throwing to keep you off and for the sake of it and you can parry most of that **** as he doesn't really threaten to pick spots to the body or around the side of a guard. So then you just look to time that. Peterson began to parry his shots and walk through him too and even Diaz had success by just doing the basics, keeping a tight guard knowing there ain't a lot of variation coming and simply walking through shots as he knows Khan doesn't have guard splitting power either and he rarely goes downstairs except for the odd occasion like against Maidana.

    There's always an excuse with you Khan fans, when are you going to accept that Amir is not the man you fell in love with.

    His last fight wasn't at 140. It was above, in order to allow Khan to 'grow' into Welterweight, that doesn't appear to be someone who has outgrown 140, more someone who WANTS to move to 147.
