    Precisely!

    He has the talent to go a long way! What's the point of destroying his career early, by throwing him at the wolves?

    I'll copy it here:

    Well, Warren's probably thought that even if Diaz was a punching machine, his light volume punching vs. the amazingly quick and very well conditioned, powerful Khan would favor his fighter. Think about this: Amir is a lot quicker, I feel stronger, and I think as good in fighting 12 rounds as Campbell. And Diaz never really caught Nate with a volume of clean punches - therefore he couldn't break him down, and one cut (caused by a punch) was enough for Campbell to take control... The anti-Diaz game plan was always there, just a guy with a great defense (very few clean shots landed on Nate, he slipped a lot of punches) and offense was needed...

    So Warren probably thinks: Geez, this Campbell guy with his great punching power, vicious body and head combos and 1145 punches (more punches than Diaz usually throw) is a bigger threat to Amir because Diaz just can't throw ONE ko punch, while Campbell can throw HUNDREDS!

    So even if getting a deal with King fighter Campbell would be easier (are you sure?), Nate is a lot more dangerous for Khan because of his style... A guy with Juan's speed and punch output, very good head movement to slip punches and great KO power... that's not a fight what Warren wants believe me...

    This just might be the worst thread in the history of the forum. Juan Diaz vs Amir Khan doesn't need to be discussed, Khan wouldn't have a 0.1% chance.
