    Seems like this guy love or hate him is as popular as any fighter so early in his career ever in the sport. Especially right now it is pretty amazing the momentum he has gained.

    No. Oscar's iron chin allowed him to get away with some bull**** that Amir can't afford.

    Oscar could bang a lot harder too which makes his more exciting.

    We've got to see how good Amir Khan looks in a set of fishnet stockings first before making any valid comparisons between him and Oscar.

    He could be Bolton's best recording artist since.

    shouldn't this be Alvarez is the next De La Hoya? This guy is what 19? he's mexican, white, young, and has mad skills. saul alvarez will be the bigger draw imo.

    Your brain dead if you cant see that Con doesnt have a fraction of prime Oscar's talent.

    If Khan BARELY survived Maidana, what the hell you think a prime Quartey or Tito would do to him?

    You Con groupies are the most delusional in history.

    This kind of talk is typical from illiterate Amir Khan supporters.

    I watched the fight with my mom and the first thing she said was "that guy is really handsome"

    De La Hoya would've stopped Marcos Maidana within a few rounds. He would have stopped Khan in that time frame also. So, no...he's not even close to DLH.

    Yup, Oscar would have disposed of Maidana in the early rounds with a devastating left hook. No doubt in my mind. And people would have talked about Maidana as a bum.
