I'm sure the Tartan Tornado would give up a few lbs to move to face this celebrity boxer, and I'd fully expect him to win. Khan doesn't seem to wanna face any top british fighters though, like he's terrified of a KO loss to a british fighter. He's only been interested in North American fighters because he's obsessed with raising his profile in the USA and he's aware that if you face a medicore known American name like Algieri or Malignaggi or past it Collazo, you can con the public with a **** resume. If Taylor wins a win the super series, he should immediately call out Khan. It would be great for his profile. And he'd give the china chinned bum a bad beating, Taylor is the real deal.
Taylor stops Khan inside 5 rounds Absolutely no way Khan takes this fight though "I'll fight him when he has a title" "I'll only fight him if he beats Josh Kelly" "I don't want to give him a payday" "I'll only fight him on PPV" "I'll fight him if he beats Crawford"
To be fair to Khan it would make zero sense for him to even consider fighting Taylor. Amir needs to be concerntrating on closing out his career by the end of this year Max.
Khan knows in his heart of hearts that he is shot, and his punch resistance is extremely poor, but he just loves the limelight. I expect that with his huge ego and his need for attention that he will fight on for a few more years yet, despite the talk of him retiring. He will definitely duck fights with all domestic rivals and fight Americans and international opponents, because that feeds into his ego of being "above domestic level".
Come on now, he showed in the Postol fight that he could take a punch and give it right back. During the Postol fight imo he also showed tenacity and came through showing he deserved to be called a world class fighter. On the Khan fight, tbh I don't see the point at the minute anyway, Josh has unfinished business at 140 in the WBSS and until he either moves up or talks about moving up then this is just a fantasy match up.
Taylor probably would win at this stage and so he should, he is in his peak. But put some respect on Khan's name - Taylor is 28 and his best win is Postol. Khan was 22 when he became a world champ, unified 2 belts not long after and had fought some excellent fighters by the same age.
