    Huh...what? I criticize when he shows less ambition than he ought to for a world champion. i.e. an old Casamayor.

    As would Floyd Mayweather Junior in you opinion. So that isn't really saying much is it?

    No. Khan would get decimated to be honest. He'd get picked apart.

    Has McCloskey ever fought at Lightweight? Michael Gomez was pretty gone when he stepped up to Lightweight anyway - McCloskey TKO.

    Limmond vs McCloskey - McCloskey UD

    Prescott vs McCloskey - McCloskey UD (clear).

    Fair enough. I should have said people, not you :good

    But yeah to my point there are people who didn't like it when Khan expressed his desire to fight either Pacquiao or Mayweather. Paul has a right to do it, so should Khan.

    He'd have trouble if he fought Prescott like he did tonight. i.e. standing there right infront of a solid puncher. He didn't show any movement tonight and that was the key to Mitchell and that other Mexican that beat Prescott's success.

    Quite a bad performance tonight but he found a ******* when things were looking dodgy and thats a good quality to have. I've seen more impressive showings from him but the thing that concerns me is his age. They've waited a bit late in the day to move into world class and with a reflex based style you don't really want to be 30+ before you've reached that level.

    Fair enough. I honestly thought you were that much of a nuthugger you would think Khan would destroy FMJ. Fair dues Lazarus, I didn't expect that. You've kinda caught me off guard now. I don't know what to say! :shock:

    No PM has only ever fought at lww, im talking fantasy matchups. reson i mentioned the three above is due to the fact they all knocked down khan as a previous poster stated, bad examples to draw for a comparison... :oops:

    Well lets admit it PM calling out Khan now is a bit different to Khan calling out Pac and PBF 18 months or so ago.
