    I think Paulie could pull of the upset at Khan's jaw is made of china.

    I just dont think Paulie has what it takes to do it. Khans chin hasnt been tested again since but dont think mallinagi is the guy who will do that



    Agree, dont think paulie will do it and there is so long they can put off fights unless he gives up his title. So he will be tested soon enough. I do think they dont have too much to worry about he is on par to get in the ring with most guys in that weight class except bradley.

    Maidana,Alvarado,Victor Ortiz all have a very good chance at knocking out Khan. Not too mention Valero(whos moving up), and Marquez. Alexander and Bradley arent the only ones he has to watch out for.

    Think he has to fight madaina next. I'm not saying these guys are walkovers. They will give a good fight but I think Khan can beat Maidaina and Ortiz. I see Madaina as a good cjhallenge but unsure about ortiz after he gave up against madaina, theres a question mark against him. Dont know much about Alvarado. Valero is a hell of a fighter so if he moves up i'm sure quite a few guys will try to avoid him.

    Devon's timing looks to be real good, in fact too good for Khan. Alexander is also at a higher level than Khan, there is no way Khan is ready for that.

    Alexander only wins by stopping him which he can do.

    Im sorry but i disagree with you, your chin can improve through better conditioning and strengthening neck muscles and leg muscles. Dehydration can also be a deciding factor and Khan was pretty big at the weight, which meant he was pretty drained. Of course methods such as moving up in weight does'nt always work so it remains to be seen if it works for Khan or not.:good

    Lots of people saying that Devon only wins by KO. :patsch

    What did Khan do to get to these mythical levels of speed and skill?

    I do think Khan can be outboxed and he does get overrated a bit on thois forum but....

    The guys a silver medalist.
    Hes got fast feet (still a little one dimensional).
    Hes got got very fast hands.

    He can be outboxed but its gonna take a lot to do that:good

    :lol:

    Your bull **** has no end, if you are weight drained then moving up in weight could improve your chin, speed, power ect. The fact that Warren had some guy trying turn Khan into a body builder with too much top half muscle added to the weight drain as muscle weighs more than fat.

    Khan is yet to be KD at 140 where i think he looks at his natural weight for his size.

    And no one been able to connect a good punch to Manny's jaw :lol:

    Cotto was just playing ball with him right? he caught Manny loads of times on the chin.

    Devon will not stop Khan as would lots of guys at 140. They are on different levels. Khan cannot be Maidana. Actually not sure Khan can beat Urango. Alexander is better than Khan at every aspect of boxing.

    Alexander has the power and the skills to KO Khan but Khan has improved since he got sparked so it might not be easy at first but he will catch that china chin IMO
