Thanks again for the upload after watching the fight sober here is what I saw : One Khan vs Barrera looked like a natural welter vs a natural feather weight . two : How was this redemption for Khan when the fight gets stopped on a cut ? three : His speed is over exxagerrated by the announcers ..I didn't see Floyd Mayweather speed or even Meldric Taylor or Leonard type of speed . All he kept throwing was the same combos then backing off .. I saw nothing from khan that showed he is ready for as skilled of a fighter like a marquez ..He would be much bigger than him but skill wise he's not on the level ..Khan will be Roach's Fernando Vargas mark my words !! And I do beleive that if the cut didn't bother MAB and the fight continued the Baby Face Assasin would have scored a KD ..A win not sure but def a knockdown ..
I'm glad Khan's back. I really want that guy to go far. But that left hook he took by Barrera worries me. Khan looks shook up, the bell rings but what if it hadn't? In other words Khan's chin still scares me a bit. Damn shame, as I think with a better punch resistance we'd have the makings of a great.
agreed. but perhaps roach can make him take a punch better, steward improved wlad's chin and roach can do the same
Chins generally cannot be taught, either you are born with it or not. The only thing we can hope is for Roach to teach him defense and how not to be hit flush on that fragile china chin chin.
i saw the same amir khan shoeshining with little power missing most chin up in the air, wobbled with the only two meaningful punches barrera landed
