    1-He is a dumb fighter

    2-His footwork is sloppy

    3- His chin is soft and he doesn't tuck it

    4-He is sloppy

    Khan seems like he is completely blind to left hooks

    I remember being gutted when limmond didn't finish him.
    All the more impressive when limmond had barely a 20% ko ratio.
    Duke Mckenzie also the worst commentator in history

    Discipline. He can box but he gets excited and throws like 6-7 punches when 3-4 would do fine. He also (although its fun to watch for us) gets dragged into a war too often when he gets hurt which is NOT a good strategy for his chin

    Danny Garcia outboxed him and TKO'd him in less than one-third of the scheduled fight.
