    I would like to see Brook Vs Khan so if Khan is blitzed by Alexander it might make that difficult.
    Also Khan is British and I try to support all British fighters but Khan sure makes it difficult to like him.

    Khan could have fought Alexander a year ago but chose not to, Team Khan or Khan himself thought Alexander was too risky so that alone gives Alexander an edge in my opinion.

    Alexander is actually rather quick, has enough ring craft and has got enough about him to deal with this version of Khan in my opinion, Hunter is talked up like some sort of training God but we all have seen Hunters great corner work with Angulo.

    I think Khan was much better off with Roach and if Hunter and Khan get the game plan wrong again (think Julio Diaz) with Alexander they will pay a heavy price.

    I have said since it was signed I think Alexander would win and nothing has changed that opinion.

    Yeah, how dare Amir Khan make the best of his talents? How dare he make exciting fights when he could hide his chin with a jab 'n' dance style? Why, the cheeky git wants to fight the P4P champ and has managed to get himself in a position where it's a distinct possibility. How dare he?

    Some of you need to take a good look at the world and just shut up. Amir Khan has been good for boxing in the UK and that's a fact.

    If he really wanted to get to the top he'd fight some of the top contenders in the division, Bradley, Thurman, Brook, Marquez. If he fought someone like that, I'd respect him a bit more, feels like nothing more than someone seeking payday

    He's taking the easiest possible route to Floyd. But at the end of the day. If the so called pfp no.1 picks kahn as his next opponent. Especially with it being his 2nd last fight. It's an embarrassment to our sport.

    I agree about taking the easiest possible route to mayweather, but don't all boxers to this, ie try get to the top in the easiest way. khan and everyone in the world know he's vulnerable to big punchers, fmj isn't a big puncher so why risk it?

    pac's the obvious fight for Floyd, and the one everyone wants to see, after him I'd say khans got a good a claim to anyone else bar Bradley.

    Wasn't it more Freddie sounding like a bitter old fart spreading lies about Khan being dropped by Pacquiao before the Algieri fight. Why is he even bringing up Khans name at all?

    Agree with that Roach had no need to mention Khan. IF Roach was saying pac was dropping Khan who is iron chinned that would have been a bit better but to say he was dropping Khan who is known to be vulnerable just came across sour.

    I think Khan can win this but I think its a 50/50 fight. He has the edge in speed and possibly power just but I think Alexander is the better boxer and has the better chin and possibly stamina. If Khan wins and wins well he's back amongst the best in the division.

    I want to see he win to be honest and stop alexander

    Khan has come across as very ungrateful when it comes to Roach, you have to remember where Khan was when Roach picked him up and moved him on, every world title Khan has won was while Roach was in his corner.

    Khan has had a few digs at Roach and Roach has had a few back and it all might be setting up a Khan Vs Pacquiao fight, if this Mayweather fight does not happen for Khan then Pacquiao makes sense.

    Alexander is Khan's second southpaw opponent on the bounce... Maybe they are anticipating a Pacquiao fight.
