    Khan was relatively pillow fisted at WW and most likely cos this was for MW title defense fight for Canelo.
    Khan really was excellent boxer but vs PBF he had not necessity to have judges cards and vs prime Oscar too no need for cards here.

    Khan was all wrong for Floyd. Floyd wanted no part of King Khan.

    He had enough power to keep canelo at bay and you think he can't hurt khan? Khan would be good for a round or two, once he gets countered he'd be more gunshy.

    Prime Amir Khan is not a nightmare for any top fighter, certainly not after the Prescott fight.

    Has Khan ever adjusted during a fight?

    The Amir who fought Maidana would have been a tough fight for Floyd.

    Kahn leaves his chin on a silver platter and has 2 combinations for Floyd to figure out. I don't see him making it the distance
