    It's not that surprising since both are trained by freddie roach but as i watch the fight, i see khan doing moves like pacquaio did.

    pac jab jab straight left--khan jab jab straight right
    Footwork-right hook etc.

    No. Khan and Vic looked like The Hart Foundation the way they tag teamed Judah. One low blows and head butts while the other gives a bs count.

    Not so much. Amir has a real jab, emmanuel has a toy jab. Amir looks like a decent dirty fighter and knows how to work inside a bit, two things emmanuel sorely lacks.

    Agreed
    The way he sets up punches is very similar to Pacquiao. His explosiveness in combinations also reminded me of him

    In some ways.

    Amir was more calmed down and picked his shots more like he used to last night. But his footwork and angles were a lot more like Pac's again.

    Somewhat, yes. He overwhelmed Judah. But he looks a little knock-kneed compared to Pacquiao's footwork.

    Somewhat, he did have some Manny flair to him yesterday.

    :good exactly some of his moves were like pac. That right hook pac loves to throw amir did and the footwork at times reminded me of pac's footwork too.

    I see a bit of pacman in him but that's natural when he's training and sparring with the top p4p fighter. He's gonna pick things up.

    That's not to say he's on the same level.

    Yes, right before the opening bell he crouched over the post with his head in his arms, just as Manny does.

    The logo on his shorts looks like a direct copy of MP's logo.

    I think Khan is going to give up that Allah guy and take the Jebus route so he can go to church with Manny.

    Zab fought on the outside against the bigger and seemingly faster guy. Khan did do some good infighting ala Pacman, but if the hell no option were there to vote for, I'd have checked it.

    Pac is in and out, side to side fighter, wheras Khan looked more like a Klitschko than a Pacman last nite.

    I love how khan throws that quick sneaky left hook, just like how pac throws his right hook . he pretty much is because Roach trains him just like he trains pac which is to use the legs and throw combinations.
