    The pup has had several chances to grow, and reverted to type each time mate.

    I think his ego mixes with his immaturity, goading him into needless exchanges. The only contest he has a shot at winning, is a game of tic tac toe against Victor Ortiz.

    Good point I would say Lucas end another Hunter reconstruction project
     
  6. Kind of a no-brainer pick. Can Khan outbox Matthysse? Yes. Can Khan take more than a couple Matthysse shots to the neck? Nope.

    Well he's the runt of the litter perhaps.

    But I think he's humbled to the point of embarrassment, at an all time high. If there's a time for Khan to change, it's now. Virgil seems intent on having him punish a fighter before he even gets close to him. It's on Khan not to give up his own height.

    This ones pretty much common sense no matter who you're pulling for,Khan speed is the only advantage he has over Lucas & height.He's been KO'd brutally by Prescott in 50 sec,though winning on scorecards vs maidana he was on his cycle throughout most of the fight especially 7-12 just barely surviving,got kd 3x by another power puncher in Garcia.Then you throw in the fact that he'd be facing the most dangerous fighter in 140lb if not the sport,Has granite chin will eat khans punches for breakfast & hits harder than prescott,maidana,garcia.Hmm:think............It aint looking too good for china chin khan that's just the honest to god truth.

    A few years ago, I might've said Khan by decision.
    Let's keep it real now, Khan's glass face shatters everywhere if he faced Matthysse

    Khan could box to win a UD,but he'd let his pride get in the way and decide to go toe to toe,he'd be knocked the **** out instantly and brutally with the first big punch that landed on his jaw.
