    Easy fight for Khan, he'll box Broner's head off all night.

    I really like this fight, but Khan is now at 147 and Broner has settled at 140, so where would it happen?

    Khan in a fight that's only close on the cards, but not at all in reality.
    Broner's only chance is landing something big, but that's the case with a lot of Khan's opponents of course.

    Broner is a puncher, he carries power. I'm not sure why people are acting like he's some feather-fister.

    thats actually a real good point.. well if broner is the one calling khan out you would expect he is chasing him to his weight division, he fought maidana there (not the best result for old broner)

    He doesn't carry that much power at 147, if that is the weight they'll be fighting at.

    I remember him beating Paulie's head from side to side in the later rounds, and he hurt Maidana at least once.

    He's not Keith Thurman, but people shouldn't act like he doesn't have power. I think those guys who act like that really just want to see Khan in with the hardest puncher out there so that he gets knocked out.

    Broner is too immobile and won't be able to get to cut the ring off on Khan. Broner hasn't stopped a single opponent at 140 or 147lbs, he can KO smaller men at 135lbs but when up against similar sized men his power is average, so even his chances as a puncher are minimal.

    Khan has improved under Hunter and is a level above Broner. He'll be too fast, beat Broner to the punch and be gone before Broner can respond. Khan wins a wide decision or stops him late.

    This is actually a good fight though and one I'd want to see.
