    Speed, weight, reach and mobility win it for Khan. Possible controversial late stoppage win due to Khans volume punching flurries with JMM not genuinely hurt.

    Figures hes not going to fight Maidana.....

    I expect khan to be too big, too fast, too young for JMM at this stage. JMM will look a step behind the entire fight IMO.

    This is going to look Morales-Zaragosa esque for those who remember that fight.

    Khan doesn't have the firepower to stop Marquez, so he will probably win by somewhat a wide UD. It will look a bit like the Khan-Kotelnik fight, IMO.

    I want 2 see how Amir can handle Marquez, that should be a tough test, so far his speed has overwhelmed all his opponents, especially since his loss 2 Prescott. Marquez was able 2 handle Manny's speed, but not Mayweather's speed.

    Money's size had something to do with it, but regardless speed won't knock JMM out. Hell if a biggie like Money can't KO a bloated LW... it's not like Khan is going to.

    Wow, perfect timing for Kahn. He gets a shot at Marquez before he is clearly shot and a win would obviously do huge things for him.

    I've only seen Kahn once and I know he is chinny but I think he has a legitamate shot at this.

    Real interesting fight.

    I hope JMM looks good in winning...but I have a feeling this is more a chapter in the end of his career. Won;t be surprised by a Kahn stoppage either.

    Unless they paid Maidana step aside money,then yes,Khan has to vacate.

    Kahn's questionable chin will be his undoing.

    JMM is my favourite boxer but he isnt getting any younger and i can see nothing but an Amir Khan win. :(

    Dont want to see the fight because of this as JMM isnt prime and it will probably be at 140, he will look like ****.
