    I think it is :cool:

    People aren't giving Lamont credit. If Khan hadn't have fought Maidana, people would say Lamont is a huge risk for Khan. I actually remember, before the fight people saying that Khan will never fight someone like Lamont.

    The guy is slick, can punch, has speed, great stamina and will never give up no matter how far behind he is (See Bradley-Peterson)

    People here for some reason want Ortiz for Khan instead and the only freakin' reason is because he's a harder puncher.

    Just check out how he counters Ortiz with hard shots and slips some of them well. He has a very good inside game too.

    Give the guy credit. This is a good match-up, and anyone who denies it, is a hater :smoke

    Peterson is NOT slick. And what does it matter if he's "Black American"?

    It doesn't matter at all. It's just that half the people on the Forum are so sprung on how Pacquiao and Khan are supposedly avoiding 'Slick black American fighters', otherwise, I couldn't care what he was.

    Not me :good. See above.

    He's the first boxer with a last name starting with P that Khan will have faced since Prescott. Could that mean trouble?

    You're clearly forgetting the slick, black American known as Willie Limmond

    Nice to see you putting the same amount of effort into your Alexander - Bradley build up thread as you did in your Khan - Maidana build up thread.
