    I still think Khan would of beat him with or without the cut.

    IMO since 2007. He fought well against Marquez back in March of 07.

    MAB is a miracle man, he was shot when he first fought Pac at 29 yrs and was at his peak when he fought JMM at 34.

    His slide was very gradual...I thought you could see signs of decline in the Tapia fight..He was past prime against Marquez but not by a whole lot if you ask me.
