    I don't think Alexander will knock him out. His chin is not very good but he has good recovery skills to some extent. Despite all his knockdowns his loses through stoppages have been on his feet. It will go to a 12 round decision

    Khan should never have taken the Garcia fight. If he had moved up after the Peterson episode and took on a few easy touches at 147 the Mayweather fight would have made sense and would have been an easier sell.

    I'd watch Mayweather / Khan, it'd be an easy sell over here but I'm not sure American's would pay $70+ for it. Khan is the type of boxer everybody watches because he's always in a fun fight, but paying an extra amount for that, probably not.

    Garcia v Alexander would be a close fight but your right I would give it to Garcia. I dont see anyone beating Garcia at the moment.
    I guess that means Alexander is the second best boxer Khan has faced.

    Khan with a chin would be a serious fighter

    Khan's glass brain is a bigger weakness than his glass chin.

    Agree with this. Devon will beat him

    Virgil is all wrong for Khan, trying to mould him into a defensive fighter has made him more vulnerable

    Totally agree.

    Made a thread about this a few months ago.

    Khan just isn't and never will be a thinking fighter which is what Hunter wants him to be.

    Khan is a pure instinctive fighter and the best trainer would just let him do what comes naturally to him.

    You just have to accept he's going to get knocked down occasionly, what he needed to learn more then anything is what to do when he get's knocked down to survive.

    terminator x hit nail on head.....i was at Khan v Diaz fight and that could have went either way yet it was meant to be a pretty easy night but he got smashed all around the ring by a guy i am pretty sure he would have easily beaten a few years ago...

    In the Gloves Are Off prog, AK said the only thing that motivates him to train is knowing he can buy another watch after a fight.

    If Khan had a chin his brain damage would be even worse...

    The guy is an idiot...
