    Khan has had 1 fight at 140 v Kotelnik

    JMM is fighting at 140 v PBF one of the best fighters in the world. Huge difference. Even if JMM doesnt look good v PBF that is no indicator on how he would look v Khan.

    As mentioned before JMM has fought and beaten quick fighters. The guy got knocked down 3 times v Pacman in the 1st round and came back to earn a draw. Even if Khan got the better of him early on I would have no doubt that JMM would get to him eventually.

    i would pick JMM KO, but JMM is getting older and that is a bit of concern.

    I sort of agree with this. Except that its a 12round fight... Khan has lapses and JMM will make him pay in ways Kotelnik couldn't pull off if his life depended on it.

    Marquez by mid-to-late stoppage, probably with the hybrid left-hook/uppercut.

    Hell, I have no idea if Khan couldd survive a fight with Maidana, let-a-lone JMM.

    Anyone who totally discounts this as round 1 KO or whatever is a little silly. JMM will be 37 and fighting at Khans favoured weight.

    at first i thought this thread was idiotic and laughable,and i guess i still do as far as the outcome,but i do think kahn has enough skills to give marquez some trouble for about 5 round with his height,jab and fluid movement,after that its all bad for marquez who breaks him down and knocks him out cold.Kahn will only beat marquez if he waits for him to get old,which might happen in the next couple years but right know no way.I think a brit posted this thread and are the only ones picking kahn(or arabs).Bailey tunes said marquez has trouble with speed.Oh like who:huh I think he handled pacman speed pretty well.

    Despite the Diaz win, I'm still not convinced Marquez isn't a blown up featherweight...and I'm a HUGE Marquez fan.
