Broner vs Khan

How has Khant got so many votes!

Broner is raw and already too much for him. He's fast, can take a shot and his technique behind the punch creates its own power (like we saw with the uppercut on Rees).

If Amir wanted to even have a glimmer of hope he's gotta in there with him soon before he starts building up those chicken to up his weight. Once he gets some power in the legs he's is gonna have some frightening ko power. Like a Pacquiao with Floyds swagger

And I dont particularly like Broner!

 

Khan will be able to outbox Broner and I doubt he will break down like the smaller Rees did.

Khan showed that he can weather the storm like he did against Maidana, who is a lot bigger and stronger than Broner.

Close call but I favour Khan in this one, either way I think a late stoppage is likely.

 

I can't make a case for Khan, he was easily timed and countered by Garcia who has a decent all round skill set but is certainly no Broner when it comes to natural ability. Khan doesn't have a great deal of power and doesn't fight well going backwards or on the inside, eventually he gets clipped by Broner who won't let him off the hook and stops him.

 

Broner would destroy Khan.

 

Based on what I just saw last weekend. Broner shatters that fragile glass mandible inside 8 rounds.

 

Broner would go in favourite, but it's by no means an easy fight. I think Broner's got plenty to get excited about, but he's also got some things to work on that may be his downfall...

He's flat footed and relies too much on hand speed and reflexes. That works against Rees, but if Khan has one asset it's speed, so it could cause problems.

He gets hit too much clean. Rees couldn't hurt him, but I'd be worried about how many Broner takes flush on the chin. One day that'll come back to haunt him.

He goes into a shell when someone gets off early and puts their punches together. (He has too as he's flat on his feet) Ponce De Leon in the early rounds and even Rees in round one got off early and Broner put up the high guard and did very little.

He can be guilty of giving away early rounds. He says he does his working out in the ring, which means he can be guilty of starting slow (Rees round 1, Ponce De Leon early rounds again). Admittedly he's come back strong every time he's done this, but against better, bigger opposition those rounds could make a difference.

 

This would be a rare fight for me as I would want Amir to win, will he? No, not a ****ing chance.

 

I think it would be a good fight while it lasted. But based on everything ive seen from both fighters Id have to say Broner would eventually stop him.

 

Also, not in a million years do I see Khan taking this fight.

 

I'm so tired of the collective orgasm many are aiming at Broner. He beat Gavin Rees, ffs.

 

What I love is when the Rees fight was announced many on here wrote off Broner as a hypejob and gave Gavin a real chance in that fight

 

Df I don't really rate Broner, I just rate Khan a hell of a lot less.

 

I don't rate Broner. In fact I see him as the American Amir Khan. An overrated, overhyped media sensation who will eventually come unstuck.

I just don't see Khan stopping him because Khan isn't that great himself. He's good... but a good step behind the elite of the division. I'd rate him as a third possibly low 2nd tier fighter, same as Broner.

 

Broner is quick and powerful and good enough to capitalize on the many many mistakes Amir makes.

A quick counter when Khan is in mid flap and Broner drops him.

 

I've been consistent, at least. Rees is average, Broner is good but unremarkable.
