Amir Khan vs. Keith Thurman

Thurman wins by causing one time brain damage

 

Khan still has poor defense, I mean, a shot Collazo had him hurt! Thurman is much quicker, more accurate and dangerous than Khan's previous 3 opponents

 

Hans, you truly are a wonderful man. And the scenario you describe is not at all unrealistic. Thurman does have excellent power and skill, but I do feel that the American posters, although in the main good people, may be allowing their desperation (they really do not have many world champions at present, which is truly amazing) to exaggerate Thurman's skills and power. As of now, Keith is a relatively unknown quantity. He seems to be elite world class, but as of now we cannot be entirely sure. And being unable to stop Bundu or Guerrero does indicate that his power may not be as concussive as the Americans want it to be. And the fact that "One Time" is fighting Collazo is not the sign of supreme confidence, is it? Just going off topic for a minute, I wonder what Keith's legion of fans think of this match up? Since they slaughtered King Khan for fighting Luis a year ago? If Khan-Thurman boiled down to boxing skills, well King Khan has that covered, no doubt. Based off what I have seen, Thurman could not beat King Khan on points. Add to that the improvements in defence and boxing IQ (young, immature King Khan would have been drawn into an unnecessary battle with Devon, which would have lead to King Khan losing a few rounds) King Khan displayed in dominating Alexander and I predict a lopsided points win for King Khan.. But if Thurman has a brittle chin, then Kibg Khan could take him out... But that would be dangerous, so I would prefer it if King Khan simply utilitied his superior skills and won a dominant UD.

 

Khan does not have the power to keep Keith back without getting brutally hit.
Keith can walk through those patty pat hits and floor him. Game over.

 

Khunt doesn't want any of thurman.

Thurman has snap in his punches to cause serious damage to khunts fragile head,

 

Khan will start off strong but he will get caught and hurt

 

I agree, both Leonard and "The Ghost" do have excellent chins and Thurman dropped both... .. But some posters seem to think that Thurman possesses unworldly power, and were that the case he should have dispatched the 5ft 6" Bundu and former FW Champ Guerrero, especially when one considers how dominant Keith was in both fights. I just think that King Khan could outbox Thurman, but if Keith manages to draw King Khan into a battle, then Amir could easily come unstuck. But those who think this would be a doddle for Thurman are probably way off the mark.

 

Who the fck has khan knocked out for it to be considered underrated?

The guy just shoe shines, most of the damage is due from the speed of his punches rather than the power behind his punch.

 

I don't like both guys but thurman would knock him out easy
