    Though Khan does show glimpes of a constructive attack at times. They're just too few and far in between.

    You need to watch more of his fights. Khan's style is actually very fan friendly. Don't expect all boxers to look the same against different opposition, different styles bring different results.

    im not sayin it aint crowd pleasing or effective(against some fighters) i just think he needs to loosen up he always looks stiff with everything he does.

    he fights like an amateur , all straight lines and upright, dosent have the fluidity or creativity of great pros like pac and floyd. he fights like a poor mans oscar, but without the power and chin and flair. he s not tremendously aesthetic considering he has the speed, like the african american boxers of the past for example , other fighters that have his gifts of handspeed.

    but ugly?!?! no not really, i mean have you seen vic darchinyan fight? the man is ugly in every sense of the word.

    Clottey is more frustrating to me than "ugly". His combinations are aesthetically nice, IMO, when the guy actually lets his damn hands go. I remember him throwing like a triple or quadruple left hook combo against Margarito. Short and crisp.

    The guy is just a damn choke artist.

    bit amateurish but one of the most exciting fighters now, produces great fights, he has weaknesses but these same short comings make's his fight exciting.

    If you can't see that or deny it, you don't know **** about boxing or you're not a boxing fan. I don't even like Khan but still respect his fighting mentality.

    Bernard Hopkins and Andre Ward have the ugliest style of boxing.
