    he was unified LWW champion, and has some decent wins over kolenik, maidana, paulie, (who'd only lost twice to hatton and cotto before khan beat him) zudah, barrera etc.

    he has a poor chin, his ring iq is kacking, but does appear to be improving with virgil. He hasn't fought enough in the last 2/3 years either.

    personally I think he's got the ability (speed power, timing etc) to be a top 5 p4p, and don't think he's reached his potential. Any half decent puncher will fancy their chances of flooring him though.

    think khan wins on points something like 116-112 or 117-111

    He also had a long count vs. Limond. Don't wite Alexander off.

    I think Khan has improved under Hunter. I expect Khan to put in his best performance to date and win a one sided decision. Would be funny to see his chin get shattered again but I don't see it happening this time.

    Are you referring to the same Julio Diaz that got a bogus draw against Porter that should have been a win? The same Porter that walked through Devon? THAT "shot" Diaz?

    Neither Prescott or Garcia are big punchers.

    Khan's Chin is just abysmal... ANYONE can get him if they catch his Mandible.

    His chin is just weak against big punchers like garcia, lucas, thurman Imo. Those r the times you can expect him to lose by ko

    Ok... Maidana is regarded as a big puncher...why couldn't he even DROP Khan?

    I'm not saying Khan has a good chin. Just saying styles make fights and this favors Khan heavily in my opinion.

    That is if he doesn't crumble in a heap if he gets caught with some punches. He's not a bad fighter but his chin betrays him

    Because Maidana is a crude puncher with limited boxing skills, and still he was able to nearly get Khan out of the 10th round. In fact, another referee would have stopped that fight the way he was wobbling about for a Maidana TKO, and no one would have complained because he was that bad out of shape.

    Porter did not outbox Alexander. He steamrolled him with physicality. (same as he did Malignaggi)
