    Absolutely frightening. I'm worried for this guy. I can't remember someone with pedigree like Khan taking this sort of punishment at his age.

    People go on about his chin but its not the route of the problem. His defense is almost non-existent at times. Anybody who can throw decent hooks has a chance at a KO. I guess Khan will never change.

    Please no Garcia v Khan II... And most certainly don't put Khan anywhere near Brandon Rios. That'll be the end.

    Khan will end up with brain damage if he keeps on having these fights. He peaked against Judah.

    He seriously needs to think about his future in the sport and if it's the right thing to carry on

    I'm not kidding

    Hell sure Saj would clean up after his **** anyway.













    Khan will be retired within a year, he will get knocked in December by Garcia or Matthysse and call it quits then and rightly so.

    Thought he was billy big balls when he left harrison which was a huge mistake. He isn't intelligent enough to listen to instructions and implement them. I think Khan has peaked, he is what he is at this stage.

    Quite a few fighters have shown all you have to do is punch at the same time as Khan to have a real chance and Diaz proved it again tonight.
    Khan plants his feet wide apart when he punches and that stops him moving away quickly out of range after he throws his own shots.

    The penny has dropped with other fighters, it is same time punching that beats Khan and Khan and Hunter will have to address that next.

    Virgil keeps talking about intelligence. Maybe he's been sitting him through his GCSE's again? :patsch

    His chin is bad but the real issue is exactly what you said.

    Worrying, really worrying. I don't like him, but I don't want to see him a cabbage.
