    Tell Hopkins that........... but its all ok when it suits ya though...... hopkins just held held held all fight against Calzaghe...

    Khan held when hurt you cant exactly blame him, better he held than slug with his chin partially cracked

    Diaz was very very game. TBH, I really feel that, like in the Maidana fight, the ref helped Khan tremendously. But no hate on Khan. He managed to withstand and make it through. He's very entertaining but we're talking here 4-5 times when he was doing the spaghetti legs. It will be very hard for Khan to ever reign as king in this division.

    Guys, Khan hasn't regressed. This is the same Khan we've seen, but more controlled and calm. Diaz was very good. And Khan... with whatever improvements he's made, is still a very vulnerable fighter.

    Props on Diaz' part for showing class. A lot like Trout last week. He could easily be screaming robbery, but he took the high road. Very classy.

    He's not as jittery and doesn't react to being hurt by coming back with a bunch of flurries. He's more composed now after being dropped.

    He still sucks and his chin looks worse than ever regardless

    I think being with a defensive minded trainer doesnt help him.

    His greatest asset is his speed. Thats what got him to where he is. A 2 time world champ with an olympic silver from when he was 17.

    Now he doesnt know how to fight. Hes tentative about opening up and hes still doesnt have a good defence...so he caught between 2 bar stools

    I can see him struggling against Maidana again, not so much against Peterson.

    Khan will never again beat a decent fighter that can punch a bit. He's gonna end up punch drunk if he doesn't retire soon, dude should get out with his brains in tact

    Think gbp will put him in with garcia or peterson as there is money to be made in a rematch.
