    He is far from a bum. He is at the bottom end of world class IMO.

    He is young, and he can learn a lot still.

    But can he? He hasn't learned a thing so far!

    What makes you think he can magically change both his mind and body and become an iron jawed information sponge at this stage of his career?

    He is not a bum, he has good skills but no defense and bad chin.

    He has a mediocre chin and mediocre boxing skills. What got him so far is his determination and athleticism which are also the reasons for his recent losses.

    Not a bum and definately has heart but the chin is undeniably made of china... not glass per say but one well placed shot and its night night

    I got a question, if khan chin is not bad then why he ran for mostly the entire fights vs maidana and kotelknik?

    Keyboard warriors shouting loudly. That's all.

    Although I don't know if lasting 12 against Paulie Malgnaggi is a great accomplishment. LOL :)

    Mayweather said he would be willing to fight him in England,that fight would be huge,that has always been something he said he wanted to do was fight in England,that would be huge him fighting a Brit on their home turf...

    He aint SUCH a bum.. He just aint World class and wont go down as anything special in boxing history.. Hes a decent little fighter with limited skills, no defence and cant take a punch...

    Thank you,that is the one thing about the internet,all these keyboard warriors as well as the rest of us can only dream of being a boxing "world champion",even the worst bum gone pro has done more than everyone on this forum in

    They sit back and scoff,people don't do that in other sports,you don't see guys saying Brady,Manning can't throw for ****,they are really dilluted fan boys..

    Mayweather said he'd be willing to fight Pacquiao if he agreed to drug testing and a 45/55 split. But he still won't fight him now he has.
