You Got To Be First Against Khan

The game plan roach gave khan was throw combinations. No one punch ****. And every single time paulie initiates the action counter immediately. Paulie only had success when he double jabbed because khan was opening up against everything. I like what I saw last night from Amir but his handlers should keep him away from Bradley maidana zab and expecially Alexander. Alexander is tall quick of hand and foot sharp and powerful. He would blast Amir out under five rounds. Katsidis has pop but he is not big or skilled enough to hang with Amir and katsidis cuts very easy.

Khan does great when he keeps his opponent at the end of his jab, he always leads with it. He likes to start and end the exchanges and looks for openings even when the opponent is backing away. He does exceptionally well on the inside too, but I think he would be at a disadvantage their because of his long arms and wouldn't get the leverage to be as effective. Most people here think Alexander would be his most dangerous opponent, but I disagree. I think Bradley would give him the most trouble style wise. Yes Khan fell to Prescott, but Khan is another fighter now and I'm pretty sure he would do a number on Prescott the second time around.

 

I disagree with you, Pete.

Amir Khan is very insolent with his attacks. He charges in sometimes without even jabbing but rather pawing with punches, leaving his chin exposed up in the air. A fighter of Paulie Malignaggi's caliber was unable to capitalize on that, and even if he had, it's unlikely with his punching power he'd have got the job done. For all of the good things shown by Khan, his hand-speed, his powerful jab, and stamina, he still looks unorganized when he lets his hands go. Bradley, Alexander, and maybe even Maidana would punish him for that.

Khan is comfortable with leading, but he leaves his head up in the air, so he can be counterpunched...and Alexander and Bradley both have the ability and speed to do it.

 

Maidana

 

Khan is open to be countered to hell by a skilled fighter like Bradley or Alexander. He still gets a little wild and reaches. And a good counter to that chin, and it may be goodnight Khan.

I agree, his chins is out there.He lunges in with his chin exposed very scary when he does it.

He doesn't move his head and upper body and yeah he does paw with jab sometimes..

 

I've had to cut back on my posting because of all these avatars.
