Yea i was very impress with his boxing skills. He is quick and dominated paulie. His chin is still a question but i love how he said he won't leave 140 until he unifies the titles. Fight maidana next and the winner of bradley-Alexander. That would be nice. I think he can outboxed maidana but he needs to tighten up that defense cuz maidana can put him to sleep at any rounds if he lands.
He's still got a good bit of learning to do, but he'll get there. Roach has been working with Pacquiao for years yet it's only the last 1-2 years that Roach has said Manny has become what he's been moulding.
Im not gonna lie, Khan impressed me last night. Im not gonna say hes the next big thing since he has yet to be tested against the elite, but i'll definitly be rooting for him. I think he has the tools and if he can manage to protect that chin then he'll go on to do great things. As of right now, i think he beats maidana (if he fights smart and avoids big shots). I honestly think he can beat bradley too. Bradley is just a lil too hyped for me. I think Khan loses to Alexander tho. When its all said and done I think Alexander will come out on top. Still, Khan impressed me last night and I hope he goes on to do great things.
The Super Six has shown how hard it is to win in the other fella's home country, so that Khan did that with ease must also be added to the equation
I was impressed, we've all seen Paulie make pretty good fighters win "ugly" and/or get beat, I'm not Paulie fan but I felt Kahn broke his spirit which was most impressive to me. When his corner called the Cotto fight, he was animated and complaining, not last night though, he was outclassed and it began to show in his posture and there was no confidence. I was impressed with the kid, of course he's got work to do and plenty he can improve on...but who doesn't. Bottom line he's a good fighter and will be a problem for anyone he faces, will that develop into greatness, I don't know that anyone can say for sure...but he's got all the makings, time will tell.
I was screaming from the mountain tops that Paulie would get a UD over Khan.. Obviously, I was dead wrong.. He outclassed Paulie.. The guy has a good jab.. good speed(although I dont see how someone can say he's faster than May,wtf?).. I'm not a fan yet, because he beat Paulie... a B fighter at best... I thought with the home crowd and Khan not being tested Paulie would take it.. Nevertheless, the kid put on a decent show... Looking forward to seeing him in the ring with better fighters like Alexander,Maidana,Bradley or Ortiz... 140 has a lot of talent.. As a boxing fan you have to be excited....
