    If Amir Khan returned today and fought the second ever sanctioned mixed-gender bout, what are Shields's chances of knocking him out? Would it be an easy win for Khan? Or will he grace us with his soles up in the air?

    She has a superior ring IQ to Khan.

    Seriously? Khan would murk her something horrible. She's a no-power puncher by men's standards and even Amir Khan's chin can take that.

    Stop, just stop. Khan sleeps her in the 1st round, 2 mumutes or 3 doesn't matter.

    Acting like prime Khan wasn't the king at 140 who beat Maidana

    No, nor in 5 or 10 years time. Or 15 or 20.

    Maybe 40.

    Can I have a toke of what you're smoking? She wouldn't make it out of round 1 with her head still attached to her neck. Khan speed and power would be far too much for her mandible section to withstand

    I'd give her a fair shot over Sunny though.

    This would be Crawford vs Spence. That’s just how wide the gap is between Khan and Shields.

    Not even. More like Pee Wee Herman vs prime Mike Tyson. Herman still has a better chance at victory.

    Learn to spell son. Irrespective of the outcome she has a superior ring IQ to him.
