Khan would've given Floyd no end of problems in the first 4 or 5 rounds. But one of his biggest flaws was he didn't have the greatest boxing IQ , could often over commit and also get greedy. Going up against Floyd who possesses an absurdly high boxing IQ , he'd figure Khan out, take certain shots away from him and take over the fight.
Khan will be remembered for his porous chin and that is a no against Floyd.That chin will only improve Floyd KO percentage.
Lol thanks bruv. Was it the prime Khan getting starched by a 20 to 1 underdog , Prescott in about a minute?
What I mean by prime khan is when he was training at wild card with freddy roach and sparring 100's of rounds with pac, on a weekly basis....
Yes. The fact he beat Maidana is still hard to believe for me. But I think Floyd would be precise in his punching.
I ate some crow that night. Garcia has had the oddest career. He was also going to be beheaded by Matthysse…the forums were littered and all the money was on LM
Prime refers to one's physical peak. And YES, I know idiots here try to refer to prime as when the boxer is at his best. That's not how it works. That's just what it's been made in to here by casuals who don't know better.
Garcia v Mattysse was a tough one. I thought Mattysse had him as well. Hell, I thought Peterson was going to beat Mattysse
Do you know Khan was ranked No.1 by the WBC for 2 years straight , Khan was mandatory for Floyd's title, Khan being the Silver Champion at 147 at the time..
Heard Pacquiao as we've known him to be would always take it easy in sparring with him but then Amir would go around doing interviews his Amir khan "smiles" claiming he beat him up & had the better of the two haha, Roach & Chavez Sr said they saw Manny drop him in sparring too, although you're right Khan was looking his best with Roach & more importantly with Ariza at the time SC with him don't know why he decided to go Trainer hopping as he is known for.
Wouldn't surprise me. most of the time Roach would turn off the cameras, I've been to wildcard just for fun and fitness, and Pac definitely went easy on his training partners, IMO anyways.
