This is a match up I would love to see & perhaps could be made - if Warren & co see as an easy defence.. I think that Paul would definatley be able to catch Khan at some point - although Khan would also I'm sure catch him... could well be a battle of the chins...
This is a fight I would like to see after/if McCloskey beats Lauri. Khan should win and probably would but that is far from proven because Paul would still represent one of Amir's best opponents and so many champs are found out early in their reign against the so called fringe world class opposition. I really don't know why people want to rush Amir into facing the top light welterweights (other then the Sky Box Office factor) and I'm not sure why Freddie Roach wants to either, he said it himself it took him 8 years to get Manny to where he is so why risk all the good work by putting Khan into a fight that he would stand to gain very little and stand to lose a lot.
Wrong. Mccloskey's defence is good. Cesar Bazan got loads of shots in on the highly fancied american Mike avalardo but couldn't land a single shot on mccloskey all night. Also Lynes couldn't hit him bar round one. Its not conventional but its a good defence as also when he gets hit he is moving the head away taking away the power from the shot. Second Mccloskey's chin is far better than kahns. Kahn has fought better opposition(but not that much better) and has lightning hand speed. Kahn has the advantage and and so would be the more likely to win but it would not suprise me in the slightest if Mccloskey won and so I will go for him. KO 11. Suck on that kahn bitches.
I gave McCloskey a chance before, but since Khan has been working with Roach I think he wins this, but may be an intersting one if he can catch Khan.
i thinik khan might be too quick for paul but if mccloskey was to land on him it could all be over paul has a very slick style and could frustrate khan although khan looked a beast in his last fight
