    Like i said he gets beating up by 140lb fighters,so just imagine what a top welterweight would do.

    I dont blame weight for this

    he won the first 2 rounds was in total command and it looked like he was gonna cruise to a win

    he had round three in the bank and then got caught

    its boxing one punch can change it and thats what happened

    its not weight, or khans, or gloves, or the refs, or the judges fault...he flat out got caught while in command

    I thought Khan boxed great til that point and showed guts when hurt prob shoulda held more but then again excessive holding can get you stopped

    He would gain a degree of resolve with the move up to 147 as he did previously with the move up from 135 to 140, he is a big 140, but it’s not going to be enough, the chin is hopelessly soft, always has been.
