    Khan would actually have a granite chin compared to those MMA clowns.

    Imagine the embarrassment for Dana White if Khan, with his reputation as a glass jawed hype job went on to dominate his weight category in the UFC. It'd be absolutely hilarious.

    He'd prob have his arm broken quickly by some idiot though.

    I remember a while back when Enzo Mac said he'd fight Bisping at full mma rules as he'd done some form of grappling be it judo or bjj, but White didn't want to know. Said Enzo wasn't qualified enough.

    Yet he allows Toney in with Couture.

    Can't wrestle, style of boxing won't cross over, he would get murdered by someone on a regional promotion let alone in the ufc.

    Dana loves inviting washed up pure boxers over but will always be reluctant to have any punchers make there way into MMA for fear of someone repeating Mercer vs Slyvia.

    If you have no training in another discipline you have very little chance of making it in MMA. Khan would only have speed and decent striking ability which isn't enough.

    He will fight Singh or Brook if he loses to Canelo next weekend.

    Compared to mma goons he moves at lightspeed. If he learns some ground game he'll be champ easily. Heck Conor got where he was with extremely below average skills on the ground, and Khan is in a different class than that fraud!

    MMA fighters use smaller gloves. Khan would get KO'd even more often.

    It's the only way he will make good money after he gets decapitated by Canelo.
