    Porter stands a chance. Khan sometimes struggles with boxers who are physical and can really put it on him - see Peterson and Maidana.

    I can't stand Porter's style, but if Brook can beat him I believe Khan can to. Khan would have so issues with porter in your face style and aggression, but porter tends to smother his work. I see khan getting off the cleaner shots and out boxing him.

    Porter knocks him out. Terrible style for Khan to deal with.

    Khan has retired from fighting anyone with a KO punch. ;)

    It does not work like that styles makes fights just because brook beat him doesn't mean khan can brook has a better chin and is stronger.

    porter is SOOO SLOPPY and over aggressive. i think hed put khan down but i would bank on khans boxing ability to keep him at bay and close out a decision

    Khan keeps it on the outside and coasts to an easy decision.

    Khan struggled and made an ancient Collazo look like he's Mike Tyson in there. :lol: He's not coasting comfortably against an actual aggressive fighter with power.

    he did win close to every round and dropped him 3 times?

    he may get roughed up a bit by porter on the inside. if the ref allows him to get away with clinching he should win a convincing UD.

    Bit of an overstatement. I don't remember Mike being shut out and dropped 3 times.

    I just think Porters mauling come forward style wouldn't trouble Khan. I'm far from a Khan fan, but think his kryptonite is a sharp puncher with excellent timing. Kell Brook KO's him.

    Each to his own I guess.

    Any fighter that can punch would give khan hell he has never completly outboxed a puncher without taking much punishment

    He should get a rematch with garca but he knows he would get knocked out again
