    Also the Loma stoppage was a body shot, nothing to do with Linares`s chin at all.

    Lay-off`s didn`t effect his chin and he makes more mistakes than Linares did v Loma, whio is a fighter miles above anyone Khan has fought except Canelo. Linares fought better v Loma than Khan did v Canelo.

    No way, it would have been a great fight at lightweight, but Khan wasn`t as good as Linares at lightweight and improved when he linked up wityh Roach and then Hunter.

    There`s no good performance against a boxer at the top of the P4P rankings like Linares had when he fought well v the matrix, Khan fought Canelo but didn`t do much.

    Being faster doesn't mean better boxer. In terms of pure skills, there is no comparison. Linares is a level or two above Khan, he does everything better than Amir. And if they'd fought at Lightweight, Linares would most likely destroy Khan.

    Khan`s got a leaky defense.

    Khan didn`t know what to do when he got hurt, he was wide open, Linares is a far better lightweight than Khan was.

    The layoffs didn’t effect his chin, but it did effect his timing and hand speed. Also, as talented is Loma you’re taking a big leap to say he’s miles better than everyone Khan fought, since Loma’s pro resume isn’t extactly all that great. Several guys on Khan’s resume would clean out Loma’s resume while Loma would take a few losses against all of the guys Khan fought.

    Who's ever outboxed Linares aside from Lomachenko? And DeMarco wasn't.

    Stop your racial trolling, as subtle as it is. Kotelnik and Salita were thoroughly meh.

    Algieri didn't juice up, stop making slanderous false accusations you scumbag. Also an argument could be made Algieri boxed well enough to earn a draw, and managed to rock Khan. Also without the point deduction and with what should have been a 10-8 round in Maidana's favor, he did kind of outbox Khan. The Diaz match was way closer than it should have been.

    LMFAO! What racial trolling, you braindead simpleton? We're talking about a Venezuelan and a Paki..

    I'm GHANAIAN MUTHA-****A! GET A MAP GOD DAMMIT, DOES THAT LOOK ANYWHERE CLOSE TO VENEZUELA OR PAKISTAN TO YOU?

    Just go ahead and ban me Homie, you may be the stupidest, most cowardly, useless, worthless, yella-bellied, POS I have come across in 20 years on the internet. You give Kirk, IB, The Professor, and the other mods here, who I do often disagree with, a bad name. I've tried to be civil with you, but you are a low IQ gutless wonder who loves to insult people from the anonymity of your E-Z chair. And I'm not the only one who thinks so. I'd love to see you try this routine with me in person. I live in Albuquerque, NM you spineless piece of cow-dung. Just send me an email when you are getting on the plane.

    So I'll see you, but DEFINITELY wouldn't want to be you.

    Ether!

    Deuces!

    Jorge Linares doesn't have images of his erect ***** floating around on the internet, and I imagine it doesn't resemble a pencil.

    Fair point with loma it was a great fight and he gave more than a good account of himself I forgot about that, I still think Kahn edges it in cv, but that performance against loma certainly evens it up a lot more. I watched the fight 3 times so don’t know how I forgot maybe because I was thinking of wins.

    They've actually sparred each other before

    'Amir Khan: A couple weeks after dispatching Phil Lo Greco by first-round knockout following two years out of the ring, Khan is picking Linares to win. Khan has trained and sparred with Linares, and he knows Linares’ talent. “A lot of people say it’s impossible to beat Lomachenko, that this will show how good Lomachenko is,” Khan told ESNEWS. “Linares is no joke. He’s a beast. He’s a brilliant fighter. He’s got a little speed and a lot of skills himself.”
