    Improve your oppinion of him?

    Lessen your oppinion of him?

    About confirm what you already knew?

    There seems to be wild disagreement- some sighting that he won every round, others saying that he was not impressive and looked tired.

    i don't remember much, i was probably watching porn waiting for berto-ortiz

    all i know is the other guy wasn't throwing and khan was throwing fast combos like always and dominated.

    It doesn't really change my rating of him. He was consistently offensively disrupted but the guy couldn't disrupt Khan's offense while waging his own so Khan still controlled the fight at his preferred range against a solid but overmatched challenger. It wasn't a bad win but the performance wasn't too much on either end. Almost nothing to say really. Except that I hate those vuvuzela ****ers.

    Lessened but only slightly. I know he's a very capable, talented, skilled fighter, but nobody at the world class level should be lunging in and dropping one hand while throwing the other like an amateur like that.

    I couldn't listen to the fight with sound after the first two rounds of that ****.

    To answer the question: no, my opinion of him doesn't change.

    I had to laugh when I was reading the Salido/Lopez fight RBR and one of the first comments I saw was "Oh, no. They've got vuvuzelas on this fight too." :lol:

    he was in against a defensive fighter with a hard chin they will always ruin high expectations from any fighter.
