    Mickey was outboxing John for 9 1/2 rounds, but then he got outbox at the end. If you get Koed you got outbox, whether it was for 10 rounds or 10 seconds.

    By Khan's strengths negating his opponents strengths. All three of those fighters primarily like to fight at range, Khan was able to take their game away from them as he's good at controlling the range. His speed and reach allowed him to get off first and dictate the fight at his pace and distance.

    Oh, most definitely. People will go extraordinary lengths to hate on Khan, this thread is a prime example, you've got boxing fans willing defend and claim that Peterson has a legit victory over Khan despite admitting and having been found to have tested positive to using synthetic testosterone pellets.

    Khan is actually my first choice to fight Floyd as I think he would do better than Pac. People like match him up with only big punchers because of his KO losses as an indirect way of hating, reasoning, he would not them beat them because of his jaw. While, they ignore how Pac and Floyd fought fighters who favored them their entire career, yet, give them nothing but praise.

    OK, so we know that Khan is likely to get KO'd against a skilled big puncher, we been there, done that. Now, when is Pac gonna fight that masterful boxer, and when is Floyd gonna fight someone with speed and volume?? At least Khan has fought every style out there, I gotta give him more respect than our "superstars" because of that.

    Other than Marquez, Pac hasn't really fought any pure boxers.

    Add Prime Paulie to that list also, a good world class operator. Oh and one of the best Olympians of all time Mario Kindelan also.

    Khan is delusional if he thinks he's some huge draw.

    Khan has become much better than he used to be. Moving up to 147 has done wonders for him as well.

    Khan may be better than he used to be, but he's still B level at best.

    There are alot of Khan haters and those who will not give him respect...

    But I've been saying it for some time now, Khan was his own worst enemy in the way he was fighting..

    Under Hunter Khan gone back to boxing and in boxing terms he is very hard to outbox, that's why he does shut outs on these guys..

    In pure boxing mode he is very hard to outbox for ANY fighter at 147..

    Khan is very, very good. He's huge at WW and looks a lot more comfortable at the weight, crazy to think he used to boil down to 135. At this point I see him beating Floyd quite handily. Don't understand the hate he gets, always came across pretty likeable to me

    I like how people are getting on the Khan bandwagon after 2 good performances.

    I guarantee you, most of the people who think Khan would trouble Floyd didn't think so until 2 years ago.
