    What improvements, if any, has Hunter made to Khan?

    I had Khan winning hte fight 4 rounds to 1 at the time of the one-punch KO. Khan looked like Bernard Hopkins for most of the fight, but we all know he doesn't have the defensive radar that B-Hop has. Virgil can't turn Khan into a slickster because he doesn't have the radar.

    It was a great fight plan. It's just that Khan is programmed to do certain things. It's hard to erase what he's been doing for years and years and years.

    Khan was doing the same thing under roach

    Only thing Virgil likes hugging and consoling after their fighter get beat up

    So I guy with a weak chin at 140, steps up to 154 and fights a guy who weighed close to 175, and you want to use this as a stick to beat Hunter with?

    Virgil is ****. His fighter had no hope. It was a **** fight. They got paid so they made the fight but make no mistake that this was something that took any heart on Virgils part.

    Khan did a lot well last night was patient and didn't waste energy, I had him 4-1 up. Big improvement but old mistakes started creeping in

    Hunter deserves some credit Khan should spend more time learning

    Hunter has history for dumb decisions. Brandon Gonzales vs Oosthuizen being the bworst. He told Gonzales he was winning comfortably and to ease off the pace, only the cards said otherwise and resulted in a draw.

    He wasted all his energy in the first 4 rounds. He was carrying more weight than ever and had not fought in 1 year!!! :patsch

    He told Khan to take a round off. He obviously was concerned with him gassing out.

    He wasn't throwing loads of punches though he was far more settled than normal
